Living in France, Working in the UK

Hi,

Firstly sorry if this is in the wrong place/already discussed, I did a search but couldn't find anything.

I'm currently working in the UK and looking to move to France and commute, for various personal reasons. And I ideally want to get this done before the big Brexit day so getting a carte de séjour should be relatively painless. I hear this is not that rare of a situation, there's a lot of stories of f BA LH pilots living in Bordeaux, Lyon etc.

I was just wondering if anyone on here has/is doing it, and how the tax system works. Am I right in thinking, you pay NI in the UK and Income tax in France? and if so, how does it work with the UK taxing at source? and with the whole 'you can't be in the UK for more than x days a year' rule?

Are there any other major obstacles to consider?

Thanks
