Living in the Uk was getting a bit stale, I had worked in the printing industry since the age of 16 and the last 15 years or so ran my own print business.

The whole family fancied a change so we bought our house in Brittany in 2004 and moved here early the following year with our 5 year old son. We were not looking for the life changing experience that some may seek but to have a more relaxed and stress free lifestyle and we have certainly achieved it! I spent the first few years renovating our property - one day it might be finished! Lisa, my wife, began working for Leggett Immobilier in 2007 and after helping wherever possible behind the scenes and seeing how rewarding it was to find someone their dream home, I decided to join in 2009. We love the beautiful coast, the people, the fresh air, the traffic free roads, the cider and helping to find the right home for those who also want to enjoy living their dream! I look forward to meeting you
