have a look at residence le mariale this is close to the sanctuary and fairly reasonable price also look at victoria gardens these are self catering accomodation

I would not advise travelling from Cardiff to Lourdes by train, as it would prove a long and tiring journey. Most convenient way would be to fly from Cardiff to Paris Charles de Gaull then take the regular shuttle bus to Orly Airport for a flight to Lourdes. (see previous postings on this).

Be aware that 2008 is the centenial anniversary of the apparitions and all accommodation is likely to be at a premium, so you should make your arrangements as early as possible

Ryanair are starting flights from Bristol to Pau. You can then get a taxi or train to Lourdes.
