Travelling by Train to our Gite to Rent in the French Pyrenees

Although travelling by train is possible, it takes around 20 hours from London and requires a number of changes. It is also relatively expensive when compared to driving or Flying, though you can take an overnight sleeper and arrive in the morning.

The nearest train station for your journey to us will be in Luchon (officially Bagneres-de-Luchon), though you may have trouble booking tickets on-line to this destination, and may need to use Toulouse initially as your "price comparison" destination.  A typical overnight journey will look like this:
