The wonderfully green and open grounds make this is a wonderful place in which to enjoy the great outdoors.
The first thing that will strike you about this superb parc is the wonderful space and openness of the grounds. There are simply acres and acres for you to relax in and for the children to explore.
The facilities are excellent too, including an impressive pool complex with waterslides and a separate pool for youngsters, not to mention the superb play area. The family proprietors are your hosts in the attractive bar and restaurant, and their personal approach is much in evidence throughout.
The location is ideal for exploring, with l’Etang de la Brèche nearby as well as many outstanding châteaux also within easy reach. While you’re here we would particularly recommend visits to mighty Chinon and the very beautiful Azay-le-Rideau.
