Title: Agen 18Jan 2019
Post by: Quinnytime on Tuesday 18-Sep-2018, 19:28*
Anyone thinking of making the trip ?  Trains not on sale until 3 months prior but cheapest return fare from St Pancras should be around €160.
Not many hotels in the town.  Ibis is still has some availability.

Are there direct flights from London to Agen or are you flying to Paris and then getting the train / another flight? I couldn’t see anything on Sky-scanner 🙈

I've flown down to that part of France a few times and I didn't even know Agen had an airport. I'd have thought Toulouse would be your best bet then pick up a hire car or get the train. Bordeaux or Bergerac aren't much further away either.
