The Carcassonne / Marseillette area

The Medieval city of Carcassonne is a major attraction in the South of France and a must-see for anyone visiting the region. On bastille day there is a massive fireworks display at the old Cite. During the summer months, there are many outdoor events scheduled in Carcassonne ranging from Opera to rock concerts. Some of these events are free of charge, however, it may be necessary to check if tickets are required for larger events.

The main City of Carcassonne has many shops, bars and restaurants around and off the main square - Place Carnot. There is a large market here on Saturday where you can experience real french life after which you can enjoy lunch around the square.

Marseillette is a typical french wine producing village on the Canal du Midi. The neighbouring town of Trebes (5 mins away) is a main port of call for the Canal du Midi, where you can hire boats or just take a short trip on the Canal.

The nearby lakes ( Jouarre & Cavayere) offer swimming and watersports. Walking and cycling are popular pastimes. The more energetic can enjoy hiking in the Montagne Noir. For a relaxing stroll, the Canal du Midi is the perfect place. The Golf Club in Carcassonne is open to visitors and clubs can be hired. The bistro restaurant in the Golf Club have a lovely lunch menu very reasonably priced.
There is an adventure park 15 minutes away on the outskirts of Carcassonne- great activity for the children.
