There is always something to do here, with many events all year round. Discover the historic town centre, local parks and museums. Take walks along the beachfront and take in the beautiful views over the Mediterranean and the mountains.

For the golfer, the esteemed course at St Cyprien is only 7 miles away. This is one of the most renowned and beautiful courses in the area. Also nearby is the traditional fishing village of Collioure, and other historic locations.

The beach at Argelès is frequently given excellent reviews, being dubbed one of the most beautiful beaches in France.

The prices of these properties are the best weve seen for a coastal development in a long time. As such, the properties best located on site are currently being snapped up. Please enquire for further information as soon as possible, and make the first steps in reserving your perfect home abroad.
