The department of Gironde is the home to some of the world’s most celebrated vineyards in the wine region of Bordeaux, such as those in Médoc west of the river Gironde and towards the more hilly area of St-Emilion. Agriculture is important to the economy and you will see grapes, kiwi fruit, strawberries and prunes growing everywhere.

Around Bergerac many tobacco fields are found and the forests of Landes produce a large quantity of timber for flooring, roofing and cladding.

Arcachon is famous throughout France for its oysters and it is possible to see the oyster beds most days at low tide. Property in the region is well sought after and many houses are a ’villa’ style reminiscent of the houses further south.

We at Cle France specialise in Property for sale in France through our network of Agents and French Registered High Street Estate Agents. We have sold thousands of houses for sale in France over the years and have helped many find and buy their dream home in France.
