We have just spent 3 amazing weeks in this wonderful house. Chez Beaumont has 3 en suite double bedrooms (one small) with a high degree of privacy.
Other guests/children could be accommodated with a lower level of privacy, but still very comfortable.
The roof terrace is a sun trap with marvelous views, the sail provided much needed and welcome shade from the midday sun. By contrast the dining room and lounge are cool and shaded. The air conditioning is very effective and a blessing in mid summer. We found the beds, furniture and utilities very comfortable and user friendly. We would have kept the utility room as a garage, because parking in Ceret can be a bit random. But in fairness, during 3 weeks in July/August, we never needed to park further than the upper town car park, a 5 minute walk away.
Ceret is our favorite French town, so far. It is beautifully decorated and proudly Catalan. The local boulangeries, charcuteries and caves sell delicious food and wine. The open air cafes and restaurants are wonderful places to spend time. As the many posters in shop windows will remind you, Ceret has a very strong culture of Arts, Crafts and Music. There was excellent live music in the streets outside the bars nearly every night. You step outside the front door straight into the Saturday market, which is extensive, lively and entertaining. We can highly recommend the 'poulet roti citronelle' from the roast chicken stall for an instant Saturday dinner. We only discovered on this visit that Ceret has it's own rugby team who were celebrating their centenary!
You could spend a happy 2 weeks in Ceret alone, with a hike to the waterfall, and a short drive or strenuous walk to the Hermitage of St Ferreol, and the huge Brocante. But the fact is there are so many nice places nearby. Le Racou beach, Collioure and the Gorges de Fou, to name a few. As you have gathered, we had a wonderful holiday, and are already thinking of the return trip.
