I am in Australia and am going to La Sirene holiday park in June 2010. We will be taking the train from Paris to this area. I am trying to work out whether we take the train to Perpignan or to Argeles station.
Can someone advise me the distance from the two train stations to La Sirene?. We will most likely be picked up from either station by family but would prefer the one closet to the La Sirene. Thanks

La Sirene is in Argeles so Argeles is where you want to go.
See www.sncf.com for timetables.
It depends on which train you take in Paris. All will stop in Perpignan and most will not stop in Argeles so you%26#39;ll have to get off at Perpignan and take another train to Argeles (it is a 20 mn journey and trains are frequent).

Thank you for the info, much appreciated.. can you please tell me how long does it take by car from Perpignan train station to La Sirene?

Less than 30 minutes, Perpigan to Argelès is approx. 25 km.

I did this journey last summer. I changed at Perpignan for a train to Argeles. There were no problems, just change platforms and less than 20 minutes later you are in Argeles. Very nice trains too. There are taxis outside the station but you may have to wait for the driver to return unless you prebook.
Book your TGV tickets online threee months in advance and you will pick up a Prem fare where 1st class is about £5 more than 2nd. A great deal!

Good point about the taxis at Argeles station - I had a long wait last time and no phone. The taxi office is about 100 metres down the road from the station so I went inside. When returning to the station, it is just about essential to pre-book a taxi a couple of days beforehand.
