Have just booked a villa in Argeles-sur-Mer, has anyone got any recommendations for restaurants and bars and any ideas for days out, have heard there are some bargains to be had at the spanish border, is this true?

The shopping is duty free in La Perthus On one side of the street is Spanish and the other side French. Don%26#39;t go on a weekend we did and it was manic. Queues to get into some of the shops. But there were bargains you will need quite a bit of time to see all what is available we zoomed in and out.

A well worthwhile day trip is along the coast to Spain. The coastal villages of Colliure, Port Venres, Banyuls sur Mer and Cerbere are prettier than Argeles. The road goes over the Spanish Border to Port Bou which is a very pleasant little town, and even further Cadaques is very picturesque.
No shops on the border this way though.

A restaurant that is a must is La Kemia pizzeria which is in the Centre Ville opposite the Cinema - looks nothing much from the outside but inside it%26#39;s typically french and the food is inexpensive plentiful and good, always full of french people(a good recommendation!).There are also plenty of places at the Plage, there is also a live webcam that show the weather at the plage at www.argeles-sur-mer.com which you may find useful.
A real must to visit, just outside Perpignan is also VILLEFRANCHE DE CONFLENT a small walled city - the Petite Yellow Train goes from there into the Mountains %26quot;WOW%26quot; what views.
The whole areas is a contrast of Mountains and Beaches what more could you want.....
