Unusually, and perhaps uniquely, this exploration of the English community in southern France casts aside the romantic Francophile lens and looks beyond the stereotypes . . .

A House at the End of the Track is a long way from the usual ‘we moved to France’ accounts. It’s a travel narrative that captures the stories of a diverse bunch of English incomers who had chosen to settle in the Ariège Pyrenees.
Not just another rosy/tinted view . . . A book that has a lot of merit, and if you have considered moving to another country this book will give you some food for thought.

… a thoughtful and interesting treatise on ‘living the dream’ and of identity …what does it mean to be a Brit?
This gritty and realistic travel narrative is a real gem of a read and an absolutely essential piece of equipment for anybody who is thinking of moving abroad, not just to France but to anywhere.
Literature Love
I do recommend one reads this book, especially if you are thinking of moving to France, or any other country come to that.
Amazon reviewer
Not your typical “I moved to France and my life is wonderful” book. The author interviews English people who have picked up stakes and moved to France. Particularly, to the Pyrenees. She finds out why they left the U.K., what they hoped for, and what the reality of life in France is. I found it interesting, and added much knowledge to my wife’s and mine plans to relocate to France/Italy ourselves.
