From many airports across the UK, Ireland and mainland Europe there are direct flights to La Rochelle, Bordeaux, Poitiers, Angouleme or  Nantes : as close as 10 minutes from us - less than 2 hours travel time !

Additional direct flights are available from many European countries to either Bergerac, Toulouse or Limoges.

Tickets not yet on sale for your route ? You can still book your accommodation well in advance and secure your preferred dates, whilst safeguarding your Booking Deposit if you need to change dates when tickets come up for sale - see our Booking Conditions.

From the UK : British Airways, Air France, Flybe, BMI Baby and Easyjet flights to La Rochelle, Bordeaux or elsewhere can cost the same as (or even less than) Ryanair and in our experience they offer more comfort. We would recommend you consider them first wherever possible, using Ryanair only as a last resort !!

All airlines have special offers from time to time - we suggest you subscribe on-line to their e-mail newsletters to get advance notice of them !

Car Hire

Car hire from the airports from any one of a number of operators (or via the airline's website) can cost from about £130 per week depending on season. E.g. :
