The village is about a 15 minute drive to Carcassonne where there are great shops and restaurants. There is a 4* restaurant just a couple of minutes walk from the chateau together with an epicerie, general store (that sells great wines & cheeses) and a butcher. Taxi's are readily available should you not fancy driving.

The Chateau Asturias is close to Carcassonne and the coast. The South of France and Languedoc has such a diverse landscape, you have stylish and chic yacht ports, rolling valleys, rivers, a great and very evident Medieval history, Mediterranean beaches, wonderful cities and the weather to match.

Some of France’s best chateaux are found in the South of France and Languedoc region, and it’s a wonderful place to enjoy a chateau holiday in France.
