Carcassonne in the South of France is known to many people as two cities in one. First of all, there is the main city which has charm and character and plenty to offer tourists and shoppers with its two markets. Then there is the 'walled city' which, as the largest medieval city in the whole of Europe, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Tourists come to this part of France for variety of reasons - the pleasant climate, the history, local wines and of course Fois Gras.

There are many options for accommodation in the area from hotels to gites, country houses and holiday cottages.
