Puy du Fou, theme park with a difference for western Loire villa holidaymakers, a great day out for the family.
The Puy de Fou is unlike your regular theme parks as there are no roller coasters and adrenalin rush rides but there are still plenty of thrills for the family to enjoy. This vast park is based in countryside around a medieval castle where a cast of over 1,000 enact impressive scenes on a grand scale.
Historical events are reenacted daily at Puy du Fou. There is a gladiator show based in a reproduction Roman arena where chariots race and lions roam, the Viking story of Saint Philibert, the Ball of the phantom birds, Richelieu’s musketeer and new for 2010 the Secret of the lance.
There is also a reconstruction of a medieval village and farm with appropriately clad craftsmen in action as well as a 1900s Faubourg. Everything is on a grand scale and very well presented in a beautiful setting.
The Pou du Fou is very much a family park and is an excellent day out for anyone staying in a Western Loire villa. Tickets for the day start at 30€ per adult and 17€ for children. For further details view www.puydufou.com
The Vendee and the western Loire offer many superb places to visit including vast sandy beaches and majestic chateaux but children love a good theme park and Puy du Fou offers a memorable day out for all the family.
Enjoy a family day out at one of France’s top theme park attractions during your Western Loire villa holiday.
