By train
Train can be an excellent way of getting to Mas des Costes. Avignon has a direct Eurostar service from London (St Pancras International) on Saturdays during the summer months. At other times, there are very fast TGV services to either Avignon or Nîmes which connect with Eurostar trains in Lille or Paris. The journey time from London is about 6 – 7 hours. We recommend taking the train to Avignon TGV station, as this has more frequent services, and extensive car hire facilities. Avignon Centre and Nîmes stations have much more limited car hire facilities.
car is required for visiting Mas des Costes, given its rural location.
