“Captivating Carcassonne”

★★★★★

written by 71Crouch on 25/10/2014

Carcassonne, Avingnon and Provence. October 2014. Hotel Ibis Carcassonne.
Our first holiday with Newmarket - brilliant! Everything ran like clockwork with an excellent mix of visits and venues either included or as optional trips. The Ibis was spotless, the beds were to die for, the location very quiet and the staff great. Carcassonne was stunning, we picked the perfect time of year to visit as the weather was fantastic and there were very few people about. We were warned it would be expensive to eat and drink but prices were very reasonable; eg. nowhere did we pay as much for a coffee as in your average coffee shop in the UK! We did all the optional tours and feel we had an excellent mix of the historical, the beautiful and the truly awesome! All the trips had a good balance of culture, countryside and free time. Gavin, our guide, was extremely knowledgeable and very entertaining. The extra trip he arranged to Minervois,the caves and Lastours was fascinating. We loved it all and thoroughly recommend the whole experience and will definitely use Newmarket again.
