Directions from Paris

Fly/Drive

There are 2 large international airports in Paris - Roissy Charles de Gaulle to the north of the city and Paris Orly to the south. Orly is the closest Parisian airport to Prissac, but you may find that Charles de Gaulle has more frequent flights.

If you are driving, the route from both airports is essentially the same - head south on the excellent French motorway system: A6 > A10 (towards Orleans) > A71 (towards Vierzon) > A20 (towards Limoges>, and come off at junction 18 for Argenton-sur-Creuse and Prissac.

Fontmorand is just on the outskirts of the village of Prissac, which is only 10 mins from junction 18 on the A20 - and well signposted.

On arrival at the T-junction at the entrance to Prissac, turn left and head down the hill. When you see the "Etang de Prissac" (lake) on your left, turn right immediately opposite (between the bollards) and head down to the end, through the gate - et voila!

The drive is approximately 350km and can take anywhere between 2h45 and 4h depending on the traffic coming out of Paris. Remember there are tolls on the motorways, and an increasing number of speed cameras, so drive safely!

Train

There is a very good Intercity train line between Paris (Gare d'Austerlitz) and Argenton-sur-Creuse via Chateauroux. This extremely pleasant journey takes around 2h20 on a comfortable and reliable(!) French Intercity train and takes you through some breathtaking countryside. There is even a trolley service onboard serving drinks and snacks right to your seat, so there's never any need to miss those amazing views!

Gare d'Austerlitz is connected to the rail hub that is Gare du Nord (Eurostar, Thalys and RER B from Charles de Gaulle airport) via a direct metro line - ligne 5 which takes around 15 mins door to door. Journey time from Charles de Gaulle is typically around 50-55 mins. Austerlitz is directly connected to Orly airport thanks to the direct RER C train service, which takes approx. 45 mins.

The train from Paris to Argenton costs (on average) 45€ each way, and there are various taxi services in Argenton that can bring you to Prissac. Alternatively getting out in Chatearoux (15 mins before Argenton) it is possible to hire a car opposite the station, which opens up endless possibilities for visitng Prissac and the magnificent national park of Brenne in which it sits.
