We stayed at Villages Nature for one week in July 2025. We have stayed at centerparcs previously in the UK but this was our first experience in Europe. Overall, I was happy with the stay. The site amenities were excellent. The farm was great, and my kids absolutely loved the tree trekking, which was much better than any we’ve done in the UK. Overall the activities we did were excellent value for money (tree trekking, pony rides, meet small animals, aqua scooter, mini golf and bowling). All activities were a much higher standard and lower cost than in the UK. Also, the aquamundo was excellent. Always clean, well maintained, not too busy (we went before French or English schools finished for the summer). The outdoor pool is massive, slides were great for my kids (8 and 10). We didn’t get Disney tickets as we added on a one night stay at another Disney hotel, but the fact that you get Extra Magic Time by staying at CP is excellent!! We got so much done in that hour. The only downsides were the lodges were a bit run down, despite being so new. They were clean. Also, hardly any sockets! The other downside was the staff were not particularly helpful. We didn’t really have any issues that needed sorted but we had to queue a long time to get simple questions answered! Fortunately the app is great, so you can do most things on there. There are regular buses to Val d’Europe and Disney too. We didn’t eat at any restaurants due to cost so can’t comment on those. Overall, I was pleased.
