The Village

In Gascony, South West France the land of the Musketeers, lies the fortified village of Castelnau des Fieumarcon.

Surrounded by rolling countryside, perched on a hill within ancient stone walls we will be taking over this private village for what we hope will be an unforgettable weekend.

The village will play host to all three days of our wedding events from Friday to Monday.

From London, there are a number of airlines with direct flights to Toulouse & Bordeaux that depart Heathrow, Gatwick & Stanstead.

Best way to research flights is to use Skyscanner accessed from the link below.

For the Northern folk... Flights to Paris are very cheap, and if people don’t mind a road trip, or maybe an overnight stay before the wedding, it is worth looking into flying to Paris and driving down to Lectoure. It’s about a 6.5 hr drive with the Dordogne about half way.
