“Beautiful park, stay near the AquaMundo!”

We had a good experience at Les Trois Forets. The park is really large but despite this well maintained (better than Center Parc village naturel near Paris, for example). There were quite a lot of bluebottle flies around, but surprisingly no biting insects - first holiday in ages I haven’t been bitten! We liked the Aqua Mundo and the playground near the Centre had a nice creperie, big soft play area and the farm next door. We enjoyed cycling and walking too - some nice easy forest routes although there are some long hill routes outside the forests, be warned! The pool area inevitably gets very busy but we still enjoyed it. The free water buoyancy jackets for little kids were handy. The other main soft play on the far side of the park had a nice cafe with outdoor seating, but generally I’d say the soft play is better for younger kids. We were extremely glad we situated ourselves near the centre with our small children. We took the hints from previous reviews and paid an extra eur59 to reserve a VIP 3 bedroom cottage (no.470) near the Aqua Mundo and the kids farm/playground. This meant we didn’t need to hire an electric car. In our experience, the reviewers saying there are “electric cars everywhere” are massively exaggerating. We didn’t see any children driving them either! There are a few busy junctions but everyone is careful. We felt confident taking our young kids scootering and cycling round the paths. The accommodation was really nice - although hard to keep cool (we were blessed with hot sunshine every day. Pillows were bizarrely very lumpy - and for some reason we only had one small toilet roll in one of the bathroom (for six people for a week this seems a bit stingy!) -these were my only complaints about the accommodation. Wi-Fi excellent. The little carrefour express in the Centre was well stocked, and bread and water are reasonably priced. For better prices inevitably you need to head offsite to a local supermarket.

“A most pleasant experience”

We loved this place. The natural environment is soothing while the heart of the premise is teeming with life. The staff are kind, they offer a wide range of activities ("accrobranche", zip line, canoeing, mini-golf, swimming pool, SPA with massages...). We enjoyed everything, but found that the VR … more

We loved this place. The natural environment is soothing while the heart of the premise is teeming with life. The staff are kind, they offer a wide range of activities ("accrobranche", zip line, canoeing, mini-golf, swimming pool, SPA with massages...). We enjoyed everything, but found that the VR experience was a bit expensive (€30 per person for 20 minutes. Disclaimer: we don't know the prices elsewhere.) Depending on your budget, you might want to prioritise free activities. The buffet was rich and varied (the food for children under four is free). The VIP cottage that we booked was really comfortable, including, among other things, a whirlpool bath and a sauna. Thank you for these wonderful holidays!

“Fantastic, large Center Parcs”

Les Trois Foretes is the best Center Parcs we have been to – we have been to Parcs in the UK and France. We stayed in a newly renovated comfort cottage and this was more than enough for us. It is quiet and our location was close to the animal farm and playground, and about a 10 minute walk from Aqu… more

Les Trois Foretes is the best Center Parcs we have been to – we have been to Parcs in the UK and France. We stayed in a newly renovated comfort cottage and this was more than enough for us. It is quiet and our location was close to the animal farm and playground, and about a 10 minute walk from Aqua Mundo. It is a very large park so unless you are quite near the centre, you will need bikes or hire a golf buggy. There is a little train that goes around the centre forest (but times weren't obvious) as well as a shuttle bus (which ran every 20 minutes). Aqua Mundo is excellent and although we went during summer holidays, we didn’t queue longer than 10 minutes for flumes. There are 4 flumes - three use rings, one is a body slide. One of the tube slides is a water coaster and children need to be 120cm+ to ride this (this was the only thing they clamped down on). There are a couple of other body slides dotted around Aqua Mundo. The rapids were fantastic but constantly busy. There is a wave pool and an outdoor pool, as well as a climbing wall that drops into the pool. The kids splash zone was brilliant. Activities we did: high ropes, wannabe a farmer, wannabe a secret agent, pedalo, family spa, and bowling - we would recommend all of these, apart from the bowling which was quite generic. We would definitely return here.

“A very big parc”

As always we liked our experience here, though there are things to consider before coming...

As always we liked our experience here, though there are things to consider before coming... It is so big they have a bus service and many people hire golf carts- sounds great but we hired bikes and spent most of our time looking over our shoulders. The pool is good though the rapids were shut when we went and was not made aware before, customer services have since done well to rectify. You can ride ponies and have a mini farm for kids, there is an astro pitch which gets busy. A good centre parcs, though we won't return we will still visit centre parcs.
