Domaine des Fumades is an attractive parc with excellent facilities and a wide range of family activities. Les Fumades also offers a host of sightseeing opportunities.
Halfway between the Ardèche and the Mediterranean, in the southern part of the Massif Central, Les Fumades is justly popular with our customers. Part of the respected ‘Sites et Paysages’ chain, the parc is fairly quiet and offers absolutely first-class facilities.
