Eurostar / TGV
For Chateau du Trichot & Chateau Cardou, if taking the Eurostar from
London to Agen, we recommend you go via Lille. This way you should
have only to cross a platform with your luggage rather than cross
Paris. The high speed TGV train runs from Lille and Paris to Bordeaux
and Agen. The journey from Paris to Agen takes approximately 4
hours.
If you would like to spend a day in Paris you
can arrive at Paris-Nord on the Eurostar and then cross Paris to
Paris-Montparnasse, on the South side of the city, then continue your
journey on the TGV, the high speed express train.
