Directions to Chateau Dumas, Lieu dit Dumas, 82220 Auty, France.
Auty is a very small village. The nearest town is Caussade, 6kms away.
Directions From Calais
There are many meandering routes to take through France. The quickest is to take the Motorway from Calais to
Paris. (follow blue signs). Once you get to Paris after about 2.5 hours there are a number of alternative routes
around Paris. We take the Motorway to the Peripherique, the ring road around Paris. To get to the Peripherique
take the exit off the Calais/Paris motorway signed Peripherique Ouest. The Peripherique can be very slow at
rush hour but otherwise is busy but moves. Take the Peripherique around to the South of Paris until you pick
up signs for the A10 and Orly airport. Take the exit from the Peripherique signed Orly airport . Then follow the
signs to Orleans and the A10 motorway. You are now on the Motorway (A10 and then A20) that goes all the
way to Caussade via Orleans, Chateauroux, Limoges and Cahors. The Caussade junction is number 59. Then
follow the directions below.
In normal conditions, it takes about 4 -5 hours from Paris without much stopping. If you need to overnight,
Orleans is a pleasant city on the Loire and is about halfway between Calais and Caussade. At the main Orleans
exit, there are a number of basic F1 type hotels just by the exit. Alternatively, there are nicer places in the city
itself.
Directions From Toulouse Airport (Blagnac)
The trip from Blagnac is very easy and takes about 55 mins.
Exit Toulouse airport and follow signs to Toulouse. Immediately you will see blue motorway signs for Albi and
Bordeaux exiting right. Follow them. Keep following signs to Bordeaux and Paris as they take you around the
Toulouse Peripherique and onto the motorway. Through peage (pick up ticket). After about 25 mins (40k) the
motorway splits. Take signs to Paris. Go through Peage (pay by credit card or cash). Stay on the main road
around Montauban. The signs to Paris run out for a few miles and you will see green signs to Cahors. Stick with
it and you will pick up signs to Paris again. The road becomes a motorway again and pick up a ticket at Peage.
After about 10 mins take the next exit junction 59 signed Decazeville, Rodez, Villefranche de Rouergue and
Caussade. Go through Peage.
From Caussade motorway exit (exit 59)
After Peage go to roundabout . Take green exit sign to Cahors, Rodez, Villefranche de Rouergue, and
Montpezat de Quercy (N20/E9). Picture of a truck on the sign. Go over next roundabout (Super U
supermarket on right) and at next roundabout take the 3rd exit on the D22 direction Auty. Follow this road for
6kms to the village of Auty. Continue on the D22 through Auty heading towards Molieres. Continue through
the village of Auty. You will see the sign indicating you have left Auty (it has the village name crossed out).
The turning to our property is just before this - you will see a small blue sign saying Dumas on the right. You
have arrived.
