As well as being arguably the most popular holiday destination in the UK, Cornwall is also one of the most desirable locations in which to live. With over 300 miles of dramatic coastline, captivating fishing harbours, spectacular beaches and stunning scenery, it may come as a surprise to learn that Anglo French Removals help many people relocate from Cornwall to France every year.
A natural playground for watersports enthusiasts, Cornwall’s unique geography and amazing beaches, rivers, lakes and estuaries offer the perfect environment for sailing, surfing, kayaking and boat trips. So whether you want to ride enormous waves at Fistral Beach in Newquay, go kayaking along the St Agnes coastline, enjoy a spot of leisure boating at Falmouth Haven or learn how to canoe on Cornwall’s local waterways, there’s something for every watersports enthusiast to get excited about. Cornwall is also home to several fantastic water parks and adventure centres, including Oasis Fun Pools, Waterworld and Retallack Aqua Park.
The gastronomic delights of French cuisine are one of the many attractions for people moving to France from Cornwall and other areas of the UK, but over the last few years the food scene in Cornwall has begun to rival that of London. The area now boasts a multitude of award-winning local food producers and superstar chefs who have helped to put Cornwall on the gourmet map, and the number of stellar restaurants and eateries - such as The Seafood Restaurant and The Wheel House springing up in the region continues to grow. And of course, who can resist the temptation of a hot Cornish pasty or a scoop of traditional Cornish ice cream?
Cornwall’s vibrant identity has evolved from its Celtic roots dating back over 3,000 years, and much of the area’s rich cultural history is still present in the region today. Much of the landscape of Cornwall and Devon was transformed in the 18th and early 19th centuries as a result of copper and tin mining, and UNESCO has bestowed World Heritage Site status on 10 industrial landscape areas in Cornwall that best reflect the mining traditions of its past. This rich history can be discovered by exploring museums, ancestral homes, castles and of course the Cornish Mining World Heritage Sites.
Each year thousands of Brits decide to up sticks and move to France, and the appeal of life in France is obvious. Lower property prices, generally warmer weather, amazing food and drink and the relaxed lifestyle are huge draws for people looking to start a new chapter of their lives in another country.

Dear Anglo French Team,
Many thanks to all of you form me and my family which thanks to Nuno and Co are nicely settling in France and despite the stress related to moving a household with young kids, an office and a mother of a lathe it was all made that little bit easier due to you. Many thanks again!
I wish you and the people around you a joyous and lovely Christmas break and all the best for the year ahead of us!

Dear Mark and Stephanie,
I would like to let you know what an excellent job Rob and Jake did this afternoon. It was not an easy place to which to get their lorry and they had to carry things down to the front gate. But nothing phased them and they remained cheerful and professional. I will unhesitatingly recommend your firm to anyone needing transport to or from the UK.
With many thanks for your help.

Dear Mark
I am writing to say thank you so much for the smooth moving process. From beginning to end you could not have done better. I'd like to put in a complimentary word for the three guys who you sent to load and unload. Service without servility is always the perfect combination. They were all extremely convivial whilst getting on at the same time, meticulously careful with the items being transported and cheery without being "goonish".
Your original quote was handled most efficiently by Jasmine from initlal enquiry through to date setting, payment etc and the quote itself was highly competitive. Your own communication skills were faultless and I felt like I knew exactly what was going on at any one time.
I, quite frankly, cannot fault the service provided, you could not have done better and I am very happy with the price too.
Well done to all the team!
Best wishes for all your future projects.
