If your children are still young or you do not want to go to such a big park, a smaller attraction park is a great idea for a day out for your family. There is, for example, a smaller attraction park for youngsters who open new attractions every year near our holiday parks in Poitou-Charentes Parc de la Vallée. There are also various adventure parks, go-kart tracks and quad tracks in the region. We recommend visiting the small attraction park La Cabane if you are staying in the south of France with young children. Are you going on holiday to L'Espinet? If this is the case you should think about going to the play park in Carcassonne. An absolute must in the Dordogne is Parc Le Bournat.

The park is great for families and is very affordable.
