Quote: rugbyman "We did Stanstead - Carcasonne then caught the train last time round, this time we are driving down and making a long weekend of it, last time we were there it was open air bar and barbecue inside the ground, great atmoshere and great day had by all aprt form the result.
Etap hotel is where we stayed last time and have booked with them this time, reasonable price and only five - ten mins walk from the train station and about 20-30 mins from the ground by foot.'"
Yes, we did Stansted to Carcassonne and then train to Toulouse. Unfortunately our big mistake was booking the hotel in Carcassonne and there was no late train back from Toulouse to Carcassonne or else we would have also gone to the football, as Toulouse were playing St Etienne with an 8pm kick-off. Damn it !!
