Hi All,

I'm looking to move to Portugal once our house has sold here in France but would like an idea of where people are attracted to and why so we can visit the recommended areas when we start our search. The things we will be needing are;
1. Good English speaking community
2. Reasonably priced properties (below 100,000 euros but will do major renovation works)
3. Access to good Portuguese lessons
4. Quiet location i.e. village/rural
we?re hoping to visit around September time so all advice and info would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
Orlando

We like lots of people on this site live in Vale Da Telha - ticks all your boxes except price box! Property is very cheap here 'v' rest of Algarve but you'd be looking at a tiny terraced Village house at that sort of price and property takes ages to sell. - If you 'do-up places' and speak French why not 'do-up' some French places - seems an easier option. No local work for Brits in this area - another reason prices are lower. But good luck and have a good think about this
Thanks
