2 Bedroom Apartment in Ceret, Cรฉret

This lovely apartment is situated in a wide-built 19th C maison de maitre (lawyer's house) shaded by towering plane trees within the heart of this sunny southern town with its narrow lanes and pretty squares. Great care has been given to make sure that it is well furnished and equipped, comfortable and attractive.
Although so central, the house is situated in a quiet area only a few moments away from good bakeries, small shops, cafes, restaurants and bars. Saturday mornings sees the bustle of the colourful local market in the streets around. Stunning country walks just a couple of minutes away.
CERET DIARY : Musee d art moderne permanant collection plus special exhibitions * Every Saturday morning local market in centre of town * end June to end August Tuesday evening market * Cherry Festival 1st weekend June * Dog Show * Music Festival * Ceret de Toros Feria (one big party with fireworks, lots of music, bull fights and running of bulls through streets - fun, but noisy!) weekend nearest 14 July * End July Festival de Sardanes (wonderful local dancing contest) * July and August music in Catalonia Festival * July & August: most Wednesday evenings locals really do dance the Sardane in the streets * Town picnics up high on the hill at Fontfrede * La Ronde Ceret (Ceret fun-run and half marathon with many serious runners alongside locals) mid-September. Local autumn classical music festival.
BEACHES AND OUR WONDERFUL LOCAL LAKE: A few minutes by car at St Jean-Pla-de-Corts are 2 small lakes - one for swimming and the other for water-skiing. There's a great little summer restaurant but it's also a favourite with locals just for a picnic and swim or for families who might enjoy the amazing tree walks and zip wires. About 30-40 minutes drive to the coast and a good choice of attractive small towns: Collieure, Porte-Vendres and Banyuls which have good sandy beaches nearby and lots of nice restaurants.
LOCALLY IN FRANCE: Up the Tech valley from Ceret, with our local mountain Canigou dominating the area, is the spa town of Amelie-les-Bains with the charming village of Arles-sur-Tech and it's Benedictine abbey a little further. The road then leads on to the small fortified town of Prats-de-Mollo with Fort Lagarde above it (reached by a tunnel, built to move troops secretely - or a path if preferred). You can then drive over the Spanish border to the market town of Campredon. Or you can bear off this road that runs by the Tech to various charming villages with winding mountain roads - or visit St Laurent de Cerdans to see the small local factories making canvas fabric or espadrilles - if you do, then drive a little further to Tapis (just over the border) for a rustic lunch with a magnificent view.
A short spin along the motorway and you have access to the Tet valley and many wonderful small villages (the other side of Le Canigou) and the Yellow Train up into the Pyrenees from the fortified town of Villefranche-de-Conflent. A little further along the motorway, the attractive small towns of Narbonne or Bezier are both worth a trip. You might like to consider a visit to the Cathar castles of Queribus and Peyrepertuse - not least to marvel as to how hard it must have been to construct these huge eyries perched so high. But don't forget to visit Perpignan (about 30 mins from Ceret) which is a charming and attractive midi town with it's enormous winter Palace of the Kings of Majorca.
SPAIN: The Spanish border is about 15 minutes motorway drive from Ceret, and just over it lies the border town of La Jonquera - the spot where truck drivers stop to have amazing lunches for next to nothing (and it's the place to stock up on food at Spanish prices!). Between the border and Barcelona (about 2 hours away) stretches the Costa Brava, with many charming small bays, as well as the larger well known (and less attractive!) resorts. Particularly of note is Dali's home in the fishing village of Cadeques and the Greek and Roman archaeological sites at Empuries with its charming three little beaches. Inland, Girona is a lovely town with a beautiful old quarter and good shopping. Not far from there is Besalu: a stunning medieval jewel of a town with an amazing bridge spanning a ravine. Figueres has the fantastic Dali museum. And so many other wonderful small villages, small towns and beaches with some great restaurants.
Walking: Wonderful walks all year round - plus organised guided walks with an informative local guide will take you to places you may never get to on your own - into the mountains, by the sea or over the border into Spain. Some are half-day, and are graded from easy to sportif. The weather is usually fabulous for walking through autumn, winter and spring, and, in summer, the heat is avoided by walking high in the mountains. The local tourist offers offers a good selection of self-guided walk plans.

Summary: The flat is in the centre of the beautiful old town of Cรฉret. Step outside the front door and you are in a delightful road with tall plane trees and very little traffic. Internally, the flat has been well cared for and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The garden is even more attractive than in the photos. Parking is no problem. If there was no space in the Place de la Libertรฉ or the Place des Tilleuls we parked on the Rue de Fontfrรจde. This was just a few minutes walk away. We enjoyed our visit and may well return one day.

Summary: We had a wonderful stay in Ceret. The apartment as pleasant as expected. The location was perfect โ€ฆespecially the market day. The Art gallery was amazing for such a small location.. However, the countryside is beautiful, so its no wonder that they were attracted to the area. We had a great holiday. Thank you for sharing Your lovely apartment with us. Anne

Summary: This is a lovely, spacious apartment on the ground floor of an old townhouse right in the centre of the old town. You're within walking distance of Ceret's fantastic art gallery and all the cafes, restaurants and bars. There's also wonderful walking straight from the town into the foothills of the Pyrenees. The flat is well equipped and furnished, tastefully decorated and has a very comfortable sofa and beds. We loved the location and Ceret itself. Our only disappointment was the darkness of the flat. Despite having very large windows, the kitchen/dining room/sitting room and master bedroom are at the back of the house and face north. This means they get no sunlight. The garden/patio also faces north and is surrounded by buildings. So it doesn't get much sunshine at all. When we were there (late September/October) it only got about two and a half hours of patchy sunshine from about 2.30 pm. However, if light isn't a concern for you, then this would be an excellent choice.

Summary: We absolutely loved this well equiped apartment with its delightful garden. Perfectly situated in the town, quiet yet in the heart of it. We would have hesitation to return.

Summary: We rented both the ground floor and first floor apartments as well as the ground floor studio for the month of March. We're writers who came to write in an inspiring setting, and we had a wonderful time. The apartments are well equipped and very comfortable. They're on a beautiful street lined with giant plane trees, close to the center of everything -- including the amazing Saturday market. What more can we say? We loved it all!

Summary: Ceret is well situated to visit the Pyrenees, the Argeles area and the Costa Brava. The flat is situated in the town centre but the street is not noisy, except on market day when those sleeping in the front bedroom get a very early call! Parking is available locally but not in front of the building which has lots of character, housing several flats. We were on the ground floor to the rear of the property with a lovely garden (beware mosquitoes). The flat was very well-equipped with just a couple of problems. The towels provided were well worn and one was stained and the freezer had not been defrosted in months, so was iced-up. Previous tenants had left a considerable amount of food in the cupboards. These were all problems at the local end over which, we appreciate, the owner would have difficulty supervising. There is no TV or DVD player provided which was not a problem for us but which may be a problem for those who have children.The furniture and equipment were all in excellent condition and I can recommend this accommodation. We had a great holiday.

Summary: Highly recommend staying here for a week or 2. We went as a family with our young children. The flat was very comfortable, and stocked with everything you'd need. The garden is beautiful and well looked after. It's very well positioned - just behind an idyllic local square where the bars and restaurants are. And there is a vibrant French market which runs past the house on a Saturday morning. Plenty to do locally in the way of walks, beaches and lakes. I'd happily stay again, maybe for longer next time!

Summary: Great place to stay in Cรฉret as the flat is very central, extremely well equipped, pretty spacious and has a lovely little garden. Should we return to Cรฉret we would definitely stay there again.

Summary: This was our third stay in Wendy's excellent flat, and we hope it won't be our last. We have been coming to Ceret for 35 years on and off and have stayed in a wide variety of places. Wendy's flat is definitely our favourite. It is comfortable, efficient and extremely well equipped. The location is perfect; in the old town, but quiet and calm; (even when the wonderful market is set up right outside the door all is quiet within the flat!) We can highly recommend everything about the flat and Ceret itself and are looking forward already to our next visit.
