However Nicola shared the challenges she faced when trying to learn French.
She explained it was one of the most difficult things about her move to France.
"The most difficult thing is the accent," she said in ARTE.tv documentary 'Little Britain in the Dordogne'.
"Obviously, because being English, there's loads of sound that we just don't have in English. So that's really difficult."
Britons in France must be able to speak French to an A1 level in order to keep their visa.
Anyone who already has a working visa must take a test.
If this they fail, French lessons are provided for expats, but these can be anywhere meaning Britons may need to travel far.
The area is a popular tourist destination and many locals have welcomed Britons to the area.

However, some were not as impressed amid claims Dordogne was being turned in the Little Britain.
One local said he was happy for his British neighbours, but not everyone felt the same.
He said: "[There are] English shops, an English barber. You're often among the British in the shops here.
"Some people are happy about it, others lukewarm."
