Hello everyone
I am a mother of 4 with my own dog grooming salon and my husband is a plasterer working for himself too

We have considered selling up and moving to france for many years

We could buy a house out right and maybe 1 or 2 holiday homes(small ones)

We would like to work but not full time like we do here
Any advice on either of us getting work in the vendee area

I'd like to share this. I don't know anything about Vendée but I know there's a lot of British people in Dordogne. I had holiday there last year and met British people who own business. Supermarkets in that area sells British products. I felt I was in England again that time.

I am sharing this because maybe if you move to a city or region with a lot of British, you can talk to them and ask them about your plan to have business. Maybe they can help you and they can be your clients in your shop.

Bonne chance !
