Country Life International Summer 2011
Country Life International - out on Wednesday May 11 - features some of the best houses for sale all over the world, from the Riviera in France to Sardinia, and Monaco.
This year's summer number of Country Life International is the perfect place to start if you're thinking of buying a property overseas. This summer features some beautiful houses for sale on the French Riviera, and a guide to property for sale in Sardinia.
We also investigate the changing face of the Monaco property market, and identify some excellent properties for sale for under £500,000.
You can also win a week's luxury holiday in Portugal in this summer's magazine, and read our hilarious interview with Richard E Grant, who shares his love of his holiday home in France.
Lush gardens in Mallorca attract green-fingered buyers to this Balearic island, while Bordeaux has enjoyed an extraordinary renaissance in its property market.
A private jet might well be a better way to travel to avoid delays when travelling to and from your overseas property - and we identify some extremely unusual, innovative designs in some houses for sale from Tuscany to Hawaii.
