Lifestyle buyers from the UK are increasingly opting to purchase property in France, an expert has revealed.

Marjorie Mansfield of financial advice group Siddalls stated that the country is currently one of the most popular destinations for British expats.

Speaking to the Telegraph, she said a growing number of people from the UK are setting up in France every year.

This has prompted her to recommend that expats try to reduce the stress of moving overseas by being well-prepared in advance.

Ms Mansfield commented: "The more you know about where you are moving to the better."

She encouraged people to find out whether there is sufficient healthcare provision in their chosen market, as well as other public services such as schools.

In addition, she encouraged people who will need to find a job to research whether there is local demand for their skills.

Earlier this month, currency exchange firm HiFX said that last year, France accounted for more than a quarter of all the enquiries it received from prospective property buyers.
