Parc Description

With its picture postcard setting and expansive pool complex, this pretty parc makes a delightful place to relax or an ideal base for discovering the Loire. It’s a peaceful location in the grounds of a lovely old manor house, and the parc has been developed to a very high standard, with excellent facilities, especially for young families, including a restaurant and supermarket. The superb pool complex has two pools, with a ‘lazy river’ and a retractable roof over one, there’s even a Spa and Jacuzzi with a Hammam (Turkish bath) and massage available. Close to a small village, its perfectly placed for sightseeing and the Loire river is just a short distance away, with opportunities for canoeing and fishing. Most importantly, the Loire is most famous for its many châteaux, two of which, Chambord and Blois, are nearby. Our 20th year at this parc.
