The Languedoc-Roussillon / Pyrenees-Orientales region
With an average of 300 days of sun you are sure to enjoy yourself here. Summers are hot, winters mild & spring & Autumn are especially beautiful with everything in flower. This is wonderful walking & cycling country. Strolling through grapevines, mountain walks & swimming in rock pools are all possible here. Both sea & mountains are within 10 minutes drive.
Stunning Collioure a little fishing village on the sea & Ceret with it's popular market overflowing with fresh local produce are found a short drive away. Perpignan 20 minutes drive, has plenty of little shops, restaurants & sites.
The Pyreanean mountains are worth a visit & offer skiing in winter & cool air in summer. Hot thermal bathes are good value & a totally different experience. The Grand Canalettes offer huge stalactites to investigate. The little yellow train with open carriages takes you through stunning mountain scenery. Children love it too.
Spain is about 20 mins drive away. It's unspoiled Costa Brava is within easy reach. The interesting towns of Girona & Barcelona are within day trip range.
Argeles / Sorede area
This is an area steeped in Catalan tradition. It has many carnivals & festivals throughout the year.
Sorede is a very friendly & Authentic village, with a good selection of shops & restaurants. The tourist office is very helpful & located near a small bank & post office. In the village you will also find several museums (including a turtle park) tennis, boules piste, swimming pool( July/August) & horse riding. Having done the later myself I can really recommend it.
For keen walkers there are a huge variety of terrains to explore, whether on the flat or uphill. Notre dame du Chateau is well worth a visit & can be reached strait from the villa after a couple of hour walk. The views from here are really breathtaking. Go up to Lavail & you will find rock pools large enough for swimming & a delicious Creparie to try afterwards!
The sandy beaches of Argeles are 10 mins drive away & perfect for children to build sandcastles while you relax. Restaurants are generally good value & family orientated. Here there is a wonderful palm tree lined promenade to stroll or cycle along.
The area has plenty for children to do including an aqua park & adventure park.
