The First of the 2 C’s of the South West of France – Carcassonne and the Camargue

With the need to push on due to our intention to circumnavigate France… we’ve descended south into both the Aude region of France and then into the Arles region to see the famed Carmargue region….. and the truly spectacular fortified town of Carcassonne.
For us, it just represents a chance for both girls to imagine what it may have been like to be a princess here… gazing out of the towers as the knights head out to do battle… or to wander the cobbled streets in search for the local delicacy a cassoulet… its the perfect place to grab a family adventure (either by staying in the local hotels or the nearby motorhome aire)

so where did we park the bus for the night?
They’ve recently moved the aire from just outside the castle walls (shame!!)… but the new aire is great value and has good facilities… it sits under the castle and about a 5min bike ride away.. GPS to follow when we get it!!!
