What un grand place indeed. Family-friendly Les Rives de Grand Lieu, in the Loire-Atlantique town of Saint-Philbert-de-Grand-Lieu, has direct access to a scenic lake for leisurely days of swimming, paddling, fishing and wandering waterside (picnics: mandatory), and is in front of a 20-hectare leisure park with archery, golf, windsurfing and a whole heap more. The five-hectare lake next to the site is part of a family leisure park, which has several shaded picnic spots for lazy days as well as outdoor activities for all ages and free swimming in July and August. There's also an amusement park for ages three and up, where your energetic offspring can have pony rides, bounce about on trampolines or inflatables, or take their intrepid selves off on a free orientation course. A happily wide range of activities is arranged on site by the friendly team in high season: if your lot don't fancy getting out onto the water on a kayak or investigating the lake's depths with a fishing rod, there's also bowling and golf to roll along to, zumba to get puffed at, and treasure hunts and group games for teens to get stuck into. A tree-based playground is around for kids to investigate too, a tennis court is at your disposal, and a TV room awaits for less sunny days or peaceful evenings. A terrace snack bar serves breakfasts, hot and cold sandwiches, pizza, salads, pastries, ice cream and drinks of the soft and hard varieties. Several restaurants are within 10 minutes' walk. Kids', teens' and adult bikes are available to hire, along with a couple of electric bikes and child seats and trailers dependent on availability. Most sensibly, helmets are provided on site too – so you can all keep your noggins safe.

Local attractions

Hire a bike to get out and about around this pretty setting and to ride along to the local town of Saint-Philbert-de-Grand-Lieu, just over a kilometre away. Less than half an hour's drive will land you at Planète Sauvage, the 80-hectare safari zoo park home to around a thousand beasties from 150 species. Visitors can view the animals by car in the safari park setting, or amble around on foot around the pedestrian section and the dolphinarium Marine City, the bush village with crocodiles and other scaly critters, and the jungle trail to the flamingos and monkeys. Time must be taken in spectacular Nantes too, 25 minutes' drive away, and to tuck into eel, shrimp and sardines from the local ports of La Turballe and Le Croisic.
