Eurostar / TGV
If
taking the Eurostar from London to Agen, request to go via
Lille, you only have to cross a platform with your luggage!
The
TGV train runs from Lille and Paris to Bordeaux and Agen.
Paris
to Agen is approx. 4 hours.
Agen
is about 50 minutes from Chateaux Trichot and Cardou, or
change trains at Agen and take the small train to our local railway
station, (about 6 miles) at Monsempron-Libos. For Lamostonie
the main station is Cahors, though Gourdon is the closest.
If
you want a day in Paris then you can arrive at Paris Nord/North, on the
Eurostar and then cross Paris to Paris Montparnasse, on the South side
of the city, to continue your journey on the TGV, the high speed
express train.
