If you are coming by bus, rail or air, then for a reasonable cost we can offer a pick-up and drop off service up to 100 km away. We have a 7 seat Grand Voyager and a Range Rover so that we can accommodate a full group of 10 people plus luggage at much lower cost than a taxi service. Contact us for details Probably the most enjoyable way to explore France is by car – travel at your own pace and stop as often or as little as you choose.
The roadway systems in France are superb with a péage (tolled) motorway system running the entire length from North to South, making for a hassle-free journey.
Obviously if you choose not to take the motorways, you can take time to stop and visit some of the many beautiful villages throughout your journey.
Petrol is cheaper in France than in the UK and some other European countries, but be warned – don’t run out of petrol on a Sunday as you will be hard-pressed to find a service station open and if it is, it probably won’t accept foreign credit or debit cards, so be sure to have plenty of cash on you. N.B. most of the service stations situated on the actual motorways are open 24/7.
Mazamet is positioned on the N112 & D118 – part of a major road networks and situated between Toulouse and Béziers as seen on our map.
Ferries from the UK & Ireland If you are travelling from the United Kingdom to France, you may choose to drive yourself, which will mean putting your vehicle onto a ferry. Ferrys to France depart from Dover, Portsmouth, Hull, Poole & Plymouth. Irish Ferries also make the journey from Ireland to France. If you are coming to Mazamet by train, you will first have to take a train into Toulouse – Matiabiau Railway Station is the central train station in Toulouse.
If coming from Paris, then a TGV (high speed train) will take about 4 hours to reach Toulouse. You can also take a TGV into Toulouse from Marseille, Nantes and Bordeaux. From here you can take an overland train to Mazamet and there are more than 12 of these each day (some are ‘stoppers’ and others are fast trains) – to check for further information on train journeys, visit SNCF at: www.sncf.com
Please note that not all trains in France are non-smoking, so be sure to check prior to travel. Also note, the ticket stations are not always manned and payment is often only accepted with coins (as opposed to notes) or with credit cards via ticket dispensing machines.
