Saint-Félix-Lauragais is the nearest town to Cailhavel. For the purposes of this web site all directions are based on starting or finishing at Saint-Félix.

To Saint-Félix from Toulouse Airport
The muddle of autoroutes around Toulouse would be confusing even if you weren't trying to get used to an eccentric French left hand drive hire car and argue with your partner/navigator at the same time (trust me; you will) but for the single minded it's actually very simple. Your main aim is to head in the direction of MONTPELLIER and don't be diverted from this task. After leaving the airport, take the peripherique to the south of Toulouse following the signs for MONTPELLIER, Narbonne and Carcassonne, reaching the A61[E80] péage after 19km. After another 26km, leave the A61[E80] at junction 20 [Villefranche de Lauragais] and follow the signs towards Saint-Félix and Revel.

To Saint-Félix from Calais (Tunnel)
The journey from Calais takes 9-10 hours, not allowing for stops and diversions. The journey is plain sailing on autoroute all the way from Calais to Toulouse.  When you reach Toulouse, the Michelin itinerary suggests leaving the autoroute  [A61/J18] and taking the D2/D622 towards Revel. This is a pretty route; exiting the A61 at J20 might be quicker if the Toulouse peripherique is flowing.
