We spent 2 weeks in France and going to this water park was the highlight of my kids trip! We were probably the only native English speaking people there that day, the park was not too crowded and definitely had a non-touristic vibe. There are multiple pools for all ages, one perfect for toddlers with very shallow water. Their favorite part of the inflatable obstacle course in the lake, very American Ninja warrior vibes and endless fun. We packed a picnic for the day but there is a canteen there with decent food options. If you are in the area for an extended time I highly recommend.

Why have we not been here before was our words as we were leaving. We spent 6 hours here on a lovely sunny Thursday in August and it never felt too busy. The pools were great and there were ample things to keep any age group occupied. The inflatables on the lake looked great but did not go on because our 4 year old was too young but we went on bumper floaters, the slides, the powered cars and the mini golf. The token process is not confusing and helps keep the overall cost of getting in down as you just pay for what you want to use. You could easily spend all day there without spending no more that the tokens you get included in your entry fee. We will definitely be back

We visited here for the first time last week, and are going back again today. It is an hour and 40 mins from us but worth the drive. For your €10 entrance fee you get one 30 minute go on the inflatables and unlimited goes on the slides. I lay on a sun bed which was €2 for the day to hire and just chilled watching the boys have a great day. Can highly recommend this place. We too bread rolls and then bought chips to make chip butties but you can buy burgers etc. Because it was a hot day, I bought a pack of 6 litre bottles of water and froze them the night before, we then all had cold water all day, which you needed because of the heat.

Kids really enjoyed this place. NOTE- cash only !!! Would definitely recommend this place for all Ages. Mine are 11 and 12. Slides and don't open until 1 or 2 but if you go early you can still use pool and bar games. It's bit pricey and there are extras you have to pay for too. You get 1/2 hour on the lake and if you want longer you have to pay 4 €. Shades areas and you can hire a lounger for 2€ . That said it really was worth going.

We had a great day - it was a bit crowded as you would expect. But i only had 60 euro cash on me, so when they said they didnt accept any cards as payment, i was left with 14 euros to feed the family! ! Luckily we had a packet of biscuits and some crisps to tide us over !! We luckily got through it ! So all on all kids had a great time but we were starving by the time we left !!!

We took our 12 and 11 year old children for a 6 hour fun trip. As other reviewers have said the token system is fairly straight forward. We only used the tokens that came with our entry but bought two more for a go on the bungee trampoline (not worth the 20 min wait for our kids age though). The entry on to the lake of inflatables is a must with kids of similar age to ours! A real 'Total Wipeout' experience, fantastic fun. The water slides are great too although as an adult, the amount of water does not push you down all the way (and I am only 10.5 stone). A picnic is a must though as we risked the cafe food (having done so much baguette with ham and cheese!), to our peril! The man who served us was probably the most rude and uninterested person I have ever met! It was clear he did not want to be there and, when I returned to the counter to query my bill (I had been charged twice for a drink), he slammed the coins down on the counter and walked off without saying a word! The pizza was poor, burger poor, but chips average, all quite expensive.
You can hire sun beds but, a towel on the grass is perfectly adequate, the toilets get a bit grubby too. A good day out though and not too expensive.

Brilliant place. Nothing more to say really we had a great day there.

Only downside they need more toilets better located.

We visited here after reading reviews and checking out their website and got what we expected.
Yes there's a rather complicated pay system (cash only). You pay an entrance fee that gets you some free stuff (pool, slides, inflatables, park) and 2 tokens. Then everything else you have to pay for with tokens. The reason we went was for the 'wipeout' course and we weren't disappointed. It was great. 2 tokens each and the kids loved it. We purchased more tokens to go on this again and the aero trampoline.

The slides aren't great - quite slow despite our best efforts. The pool is small but deep so the kids enjoyed practising their diving as the pool where we were staying wasn't deep enough.

Take a picnic blanket or similar and you don't really need a sun bed. There are plenty of picnic tables to use and plenty of shade to put them in.

The toilets are clean but no soap (have to say this isn't unusual for France so I always take a small soap wherever we go!).

We got there later than planned (about midday) but that wasn't a problem as not much was open when we got there. The wipeout course and slides didn't open until 2pm. I knew that the wipeout opened later but thought the slides were open all day.

Overall we had a good day that was fairly laid back as there wasn't a great deal to do but the kids (& us) loved the wipeout so much it was worth it!

I visited twice last summer with my children 10 and 12 years old. Relaxed with water assault course, water slides, bar and picnic tables. Not busy. Good fun recommended and we'll be back this summer!

We visited here 3 years ago and the kids were keen to come again!
The park is generally a little run down and but the pools are very clean.
The slides are ok but not very fast.
What we came for and love is the inflatable course. This has been greatly improved since we last came as well.
I would certainly recommend this park for the day purely to go on the inflatable course but not for much else.
Pricing. You pay 10 euros to get in and get 2 tokens for that. The inflatables are 2 euros a time. We then purchased additional tokens so that we could go on again. There’s a band system so you hand over your tokens and choose your time slot and receive a coloured band.
Some activities are free. Others require tokens.
Overall we probably paid less for the course then you would in the uk and went on more than once (kids 3 times, adults twice). Plus there were other things to keep them amused.
