Jamie Oliver in the French Pyrenees

The latest Channel 4 programme from the cheeky Cockney chef last week opened with Jamie Oliver in a French market and was swiftly followed by a hedonistic tour of the gastronomic delights of the villages near Toulouse: hunting truffles, making a tarte tatin, preparing an omelette and roquefort salad and bread making.

Many of us may not aspire to Jamie’s culinary expertise, but Haslemere Travel can help you live the dream by booking your flights, train and hotels - sending you safely off to the French city for a tour of restaurants able to titillate your palette without you having to wash a single dirty dish or stir a saucepan.

If that whets your appeteite, call the Haslemere Travel team on 01428 658 777 for the best deals and hassle-free travel arrangements.

Price guide

Hotel De La Cite, Carcassonne 5* An enchanting medieval citadel – pure magic late evening when mystery cloaks its battlements, evoking the days when knights in search of the Holy Grail roamed its winding, cobbled streets. Both this turreted fortress and the nearby Canal du Midi are memorable UNESCO heritage sites. 3 nights from £563pp, based on two adults sharing a standard room and BA economy flights from Heathrow to Toulouse.
