The July/August 2026 issue of French Property News is a landmark one, marking 400 issues and over 35 years of trusted French property advice. To celebrate, a special feature looks back at how the market has changed since 1989, while real-life stories take readers from a yoga retreat in the Alps to a château renovation in the Tardes valley. Location guides cover the Pays de la Loire, Cognac country and the vibrant southern city of Montpellier, with expert advice on everything from Haussmannian architecture and Mediterranean gardens to university applications and removal day tips. A milestone issue in every sense.
