Has anyone been to a french centre parc? if so are they the same standards as UK ones (havent actually been to those either but have heard/read good reports) but is the food better?
Thanks

I have heard many times that the continental CP are generally better (and better value for money) but haven't tried them myself.... I would expect the French to have better food... This was recvently discussed on Radio 2 - Jeremy Vine show.

Went to the Center Parc in the Loire valley last Sept and it was very good. I think it was cheaper than staying in the UK ones and I think it's cheaper if you book online via the French site. It's not too difficult to work out what everything means and if in doubt look at the English version first .
Dd (was 7 months then) really enjoyed the pool and the food was fine although the restaurants were a little understaffed imo. I would advise eating earlier rather than later. Can thoroughly recommend the eat all you can breakfast which we only discovered on the last day.

Aarrgh!!!!! anyone booked online lately. Gets to step 3 of process and then flashes up "microsoft source code unknown" (or something like that) and goes back to prev page. Is it my computer or them?
