Sa Perafita - MF

We were invited to stay overnight at this hotel by a friend from Cadaques. We had a most enjoyable stay, especially interesting because it coincided with the vendimia (grape harvesting), so breakfast outside was accompanied by a totally new experience for us, watching the grapes being bought in for pressing, etc. The hosts, especially Carme, Rafael and David were charming and very attentive. The room was rural in decor, with a very good bathroom and spotlessly clean, eqipped with a fridge and a safe, bathrobes, toiletries, etc. The breakfast is great - a jug of freshly squeezed orange juice, croissants, bread with tomato and a generous plate of cold cuts and cheese, plus yogourts, fruit and as much coffee as you wanted. The post-breakfast wine tour and tasting, with the very knowledgeable English-speaking David, was fascinating and included a tasting of 5 wines, naturally, we bought a few bottles to take home with us! The location is superb, too. However, this is a rural hotel and run as such, so not staffed between 5.00 and 7.00 p.m. so ideally it's best not to arrive then, although we did and found a note telling us what to do, so it wasn't a problem. There is no restaurant, but the terrace bar opens at 7.00 p.m and served wine, drinks, cold cuts, cheese, etc., which was definitely enough for us and a friend. (Or you can buy your own snacks and have the use of the dining room.) All very informal, relaxed and "special", we really enjoyed it and definitely intend to return. Gracias Carme and Rafa!

We absolutely loved this place! Set in the mountains between Roses and Cadeques is this hidden gem. Built in the 1300’s it’s full of charm but maintains modern comforts. Beds are comfortable, rooms are clean and air conditioned. Staff is utterly amazing, we wish we had spent more time here. In house produced olives and wine were delicious.
