Is this france’s newest hotspot?

A small town on the French Riviera is attracting the attention of international investors…

Nestled between Nice and the Italian border, the traditional Riviera town of Menton boasts several beaches and two ports, as well as a picturesque 'old town' area with narrow streets and a traditional food market.

Menton also plays host to an annual lemon festival in February, where brightly coloured floats pass through the streets and music can be heard for miles around. Lemons adorn the town's statues and monuments, and huge temporary exhibits are erected in the town Centre's Casino Gardens.

As well as offering a lively atmosphere and gorgeous weather all year round, and with Nice Airport only 35 minutes away, Menton is very easy to reach,

Tracy Egan, Managing Director of A+ Properties, a new Estate Agency in Menton, says: "There have been huge improvements in the town since I've been here, with lots more spent on development. Prices are going up all the time and there are some good returns to be made here on both holiday properties and permanent rentals".
