A little slice of paradise for less

By: Carly Steven

Add as a preferred source on Google

The thought of breaking free from the morning commute and escaping to a peaceful overseas hideaway is something we’ve all thought about.
 
With an increasing number of airports serving routes to remote European destinations, it’s becoming easier to board a short-haul flight from the city and be transported to a tranquil town or village on the continent.
 
A recent report by Moneycorp and Savills revealed that the majority of British people buying second homes overseas opt for properties in villages or rural locations. Whether it’s investing in a holiday cottage or purchasing property for a new business venture, the strong value of sterling means attractive opportunities for those looking to claim their own little slice of paradise.
 
CityAM has teamed up with foreign exchange and international payments specialist, Moneycorp, to create a service for readers that provides highly competitive rates and excellent service on overseas currency transactions.
 
CityAM International Payments service will provide access to industry experts, focussed on delivering their customer needs. Customers will receive some of the most competitive exchange rates available, and have access to a range of tools to manage their foreign exchange market exposure.
