From
Toulouse (and Carcassonne)
From the Toulouse ring road (la périphérique), follow
signs to the autoroute A61, direction Montpellier. Take a ticket from
the tollbooth at the start of the autoroute (you'll need to hand over
the ticket when you leave the autoroute - the toll from Toulouse to
Carcassonne Est is about €5)
Once on the autoroute you should see signs to Carcassonne (about
97Km away). Leave the autoroute A61 at exit 24 (Sortie #24 Carcassonne
Est). This is the second of two exits for Carcassonne - don't take
the first one. You will see the ancient fortified cité from
the autoroute over to your left before you exit.
After leaving the A61, follow signs to Trèbes centre, turning
right onto the N113 and then left onto the D610 (be careful not
the continue on the N113 as that will take you to Narbonne and bypass
Azille).
After passing through Trèbes, stay on the D610 (pay attention
here as the road twists and turns a bit - just make sure you stay
on the main road). You will pass through Marseillette, then Puicheric.
Shortly after Puicheric, take the second turn off for La Redorte
(make sure you follow the second sign posted turn for La Redorte,
NOT the first).
Once you arrive in the town center of La Redorte, watch out on
the right for a small, hidden sign for Azille (if you miss this
you will have to turn around and go back to look on your left).
Weave through the back streets of La Redorte until you are on the
little country road leading to Azille. You will see Azille before
you are there (beautiful, isn't it?)!
Once you start the rise up at the entrance to the village, you
will see a lower road angling off to the left. Pass this road and
then take the next left turn. Follow this road up and it will take
you into Place de Plo where you can park. La Dolce Vita is located
at 19, Grand Rue which is almost on the Place going up the one-way
street the wrong way - you can't miss it!
From Perpignan (& Spain)
Head north on the A9, change direction before the Narbonne exit
onto the A61 towards Carcassonne/Toulouse. Take the first exit off
of the autoroute at Lezignan-Corbieres. Go to Centre-Ville and then
follow the signs towards Homps/Olonzac. Go out of town in the same
direction thru a round-a-bout and country road. When you arrive
at the D11, a T in the road, go left towards Homps. Pass the entrence
to Homps and continue another 3km until you see a small sign indicating
Juarres. Turn right and then an immediate left where Azille is indicated
on a small sign. Follow the country road over the canal de Midi
and the vineyards until you arrive at the village entrance, a yield
sign. Turn left as the sign indicates and then a quick right and
second right into the Place de Plo - where you can park. La Dolce
Vita is located at 19, Grand' Rue which is almost on the Place going
up the one-way street the wrong way - you can't miss it!
From Montpellier (& Beziers)
Take the A9 towards Beziers, exit at Beziers Ouest and follow the
indication to Capestang the D11/D5. This will take you past Montady,
Capestang and then will turn into the D11 past Argeliers, Mirepeisset
turn-off, Cabezac, a large traffic circle towards Carcassonne. Continue
on past Olonzac and pass the entrance to Homps and continue another
3km until you see a small sign indicating Juarres. Turn right and
then an immediate left where Azille is indicated on a small sign.
Follow the country road over the canal de Midi and the vineyards
until you arrive at the village entrance, a yield sign. Turn left
as the sign indicates and then a quick right and second right into
the Place de Plo - where you can park. La Dolce Vita is located
at 19, Grand' Rue which is almost on the Place going up the one-way
street the wrong way - you can't miss it!
NOTE: You may alternatively continue on the autoroute past Narbonne
and then follow the directions from Perpignan above on the A61.
