Evaluations that are not older than three years and have undergone a verification process. More infoWe all really enjoyed our stay. The site seems family orientated and felt very safe. Lots of things for our six year-old to do and enough for us adults too. (The Pink Floyd tribute band were great!) The shower in the Lodge was absolutely fine, but the showers in the shower block were really good and readily available, so we often chose to use those instead. When the hot water heater failed, maintenance responded very promptly. Good size pitches mean that the site did not feel overcrowded, despite the number of people staying.
Should have brought the grandson's bicycle as, like many other children, he would have enjoyed riding around the site.
Worked well for us. Mini tent proved more spacious and robust than expected. Large fridge with separate freezer compartment was welcome. Initially felt the absence of aircon in the Lodge but after a day or so became accustomed and was not a problem.
Double bedroom quite cramped, but we coped.

Excellent facilities. Daughter loved the pool and evening entertainment. Lots to see locally in the Loire valley. Will be back next year.
Too many mice/ rodent holes on our pitch. There’s was a lot of music being played very loud on one night until 3am in the morning.
First time we booked pitch with fridge etc, was definitely worth the extra money. Shower blocks were brilliant.
Again too many rodent holes on the the pitch and even around the grass by the pools. This is not something I’ve come across on other castel campsites that we have stayed at.

Loved this site. Loads of facilities, something for all ages. Great family site.
Ladies toilet in bar needs some attention, it was extremely smelly.
Plenty of space. Convenience of water and drainage on pitch.

Very disappointing stay. Our "Privilege" pitch was beside reception and the pool, making it one of the noisiest areas. Loud evening entertainment until 11pm was followed by excessive noise from the neighbouring pitch until 2am. The same neighbours allowed their two dogs onto our pitch, where they urinated on our chairs, table and pitch. Complaints were made to reception and Castel Head Office, but we have received no acknowledgement. Would not recommend.
Beyond improving, requires management
Awful location, although a good size
Dogs and noise

Friendly staff. Good sized pool. Nice walk around the lake. Modern, clean general facilities. Entertainment stops at 11pm and is varied.
Put some chairs around the pool
Some shady patches throughout the day. Clean and modern facilities with full sized fridge freezer
Water tap could do with a nozzle

I liked the pitch size, the showers etc were excellent
More sun loungers and the pool water could do with more attention in hot weather.
Pitch was excellent

We stayed on a pitch with private sanitation and it was a welcome change and added comfort to our stay. The site needs more of these as many people would use them. The site was very quite, when we visited in 2025 almost all pitches were taken, this year maybe 50% only but possibly once UK schools break up for summer there will be many more tourist.
This site is lovely it has many good qualities however and this has really made a difference to our future plans. 1) The bar area outside was dirty the tables had left over food on them pizza boxes glasses and the area was dirty and not at all pleasant. 2) There is insufficient staff in the bar, queues for drinks was ridiculous long and staff just unprofessional standing around and just badly run. None of the staff clear or clean the tables so you end up having to take used glasses into the bar to sit at a table. The restaurant was even worse the food was good the staff and cleanliness POOR
It was clean ( shower door leaks a lot ) it was nice and we have no complaints at all. The pitch was large and we had room to enjoy
As most site the grey waste doesn’t work and our two grey caps on removal were fully blocked.

The reception was pleasant and welcoming, the club house was excellent and staff very helpful especially the young lady who managed to get the Formula one on the large tv for us. The bistro and staff were very nice and the supermarket was well stocked, the sanitary facilities were clean and plenty of hot water.
Pitches need to be mowed before guests arrive and some trees/hedges need trimming back
Good size, fresh water
Grass too long and very coarse and the drainage is too high to allow flow for MH and we couldn't remove the cap on pitch 55, hedges and trees need trimming.

Everything about the site is perfect from the greeting from Madeleine in reception to our Caravan site number 17. The facilities are spotlessly clean. Pool are is lovely with plenty of loungers. Would highly recommend so much so we are going to extend our stay.
None
Convenient to the showers.

Nothing.
Having stayed at many Les Castels, I can confirm this should not be one. Loud, noisy, butlins style resort. Kids and adults climbing all over the swimming pool, jumping off things that they shouldn’t! The ‘lake’ is a POND and I would not allow my dog in there, green and stinking.
Nothing
The electricity was so far away we had to park specially for it & uneven ground.

Toilet blocks , Fishing lake and pool facilities excellent. Shop was well stocked but very expensive for daily essentials.
Poorly prepared pitches ( motorhome rutting ) Making good pitches when damaged is essential as surface was dangerous when grass left long . Waste disposal was difficult and distant from pitches
Facilities were excellent
Lack of preparation of the pitch . Waste facilities located too far from pitches

We loved staying here, a truly lovely site, very well maintained and a very friendly term to greeet us.
There was a live band on the Saturday evening but we weren’t informed about it- more details on the positives maybe!
The pitches were very generous in size and the toilets/showers were probably the best we have seen in the last 10 years. Beautiful.

Campsite had bird song.
Toilets need cleaning. The notice board shows the toilets were cleaned a day before we arrived and were not cleaned during out two night stay!
The first pitch we were given was pitch 6. This is the first pitch on entering the site that vehicles all drive passed. We changed pitch and were given a pitch in the woods. A long walk to the toilets.
The cleanliness of the toilets.

Resturant was nice
Grass hadn't been cut on the pitches, making if very wet underfoot. Signage was very poor, no directions to facilities, took us 30 mins to find the indoor pool
disappointed with facilities

Loved the campsite, the entertainment was great, children had a blast. All the activities were ace.
The bar area could be spruced up a little and the toilets at the bar could be modernised and better lit.
Fantastic location, so quiet (apart from when there was an act on). Massive pitch size. Good equipment.
There was a mouse in our cupboards! The pillows were not massively comfortable.
Dear Thomas, Thank you for sharing your experience! We are thrilled that you and your children enjoyed the campsite, activities, and entertainment. We apologize for the issues you mentioned. Regarding the mouse in your cupboards, we wish you had informed our reception team so that we could have acted immediately to resolve the situation. We also take note of your feedback on the bar area, toilets, and pillows for future improvements. We hope to welcome you and your family again soon!

We have stayed at Parc de Fierbois many times. This stay was equally as enjoyable as the others.
The air conditioning was a boon this year. We don’t think we could have survived without it. The chalet had been refurbished since we were last in it. We have stayed in the same chalet at least 6 times. Apart from the comment below, it was very good.
The refurbished main bedroom was unusable for us. The bed frame is too big and made getting around the bed impossible for us in our advanced years.
Dear Raymond, Thank you for your loyalty and for sharing your experience with us. We are delighted that you enjoyed the chalet and the air conditioning, especially during this warm period. Regarding the main bedroom, we prioritized the comfort of the bed, which is a 160cm double, even though this might reduce ease of movement around the room. We understand it may have been less convenient for you and appreciate your understanding. We look forward to welcoming you back for another enjoyable stay.
