Center Parcs Les Ardennes

We loved the stay and enjoyed every second. The petting farm was beautiful, the indoor play area huge, and the indoor pool very nice. The only disappointment was that our afternoon birds of prey show was held in the morning, and nobody told us it had been moved. All the other activities we booked were amazing, and we’ll definitely return.

The park is quite hilly, so getting around with little ones in a buggy or a bike trailer will give you a workout. We loved the views and surroundings with our teens. It’s smaller than other Centerparcs parks, but the activities still have good quality and variety.

The natural setting is lovely, the outdoors are clean, and kids have good activities, though as a parent I found the fun limited since it’s really just for the kids. The four-person house was small, with a low ceiling, and the toilet was cold and cramped. The entrance, toilet, and bathroom are all next to each other, which isn’t a practical layout. There’s a barbecue but no tools, so it may be better to bring a small one to use in the barbecue area. Staff were polite and kind but inexperienced. The location is green and good, very close to the village center. Parking rules are clear, but some people ignore them and there’s no enforcement. The houses are close together, with little privacy, and the trees block most of the view.

There’s a genuinely welcoming feel for people travelling with pets throughout the place. It’s really animal friendly, not just somewhere that allows pets, and you can tell.
