Camping Saint Martin

A stay at Camping Saint Martin puts you within easy reach of all sorts of excellent days out, including visits to the towns of Castelnaudary (half an hour’s drive), where craftspeople still work in traditional ways, producing things like classic cassoulet pots (fittingly enough, as this town is often known as the ‘capital of cassoulet’). Castres (half an hour), home of the Goya Museum, and medieval Lautrec (35 minutes) are worth a trip too. A little further afield but easily day-trippable are places like the ancient city of Carcassonne (50 minutes) and Albi (an hour), known for the Toulouse-Lautrec Museum and Fashion Museum. There’s also plenty to fill a day in the ‘pink city’ of Toulouse (an hour), including Basilica Saint-Sernin, Capitole de Toulouse and the Cité de l’Espace. Staying closer to home, you may like to visit the pretty village of Revel (10 minutes), to see its half-timbered buildings and shop in the market, or head to Saint Ferréol Lake (10 minutes) for walks, swims from the beach and watersports like canoeing or windsurfing.
