CHATEAU LACOSTE

On the outskirts of the sleepy french village of Lupiac. The chateau overlooks Lac de Lupiac, open to swimming which also has a small tropical lake-side bar.

With African and French touches throughout the building, Chateau Lacoste offers a unique boho aesthetic.

TRAVEL

The best ways to get there is to fly or via the TGV from Paris. It is a 12 hour scenic drive from London. If you are booking flights, the train or a ferry, we would recommend doing so sooner, if you can, as the prices will go up as the date is on a bank holiday in summer.

HIRE CARS

If you are not driving down we would recommend getting a car. All the airports and train stations have hire car services on site. We would recommend using comparison sites or booking through your flight provider.

For tips about the local area please visit the local tourism website below.
