Dunno - you'll have to work it out for yourself!
Can't say I've ever suffered from unwanted heat gain in Britain. I'd
open the windows and generate a bit of through draught.
The french have the answer to summer heat - high ceilings, large
windows opening inwards with slatted shutters closed on the outside -
bliss, who needs air conditioning?

So why don't you live in france ?

Good point. Employment the main prob I suppose. We go there a lot for
hols (cycle touring). People with holiday homes often seem pinned down
whereas we can go to any part of France. Best thing is to know people
with 2nd homes and go and visit them, rather than having ones own.
