The Campsite
History of the Parc
In 1966, Claude and Max de Lussac founded Parc de Fierbois as a recreational park for the people of Touraine, where you could fish, swim and play tennis in a quiet, natural setting.
Two years later, they created 50 camping pitches on the lake and Max de Lussac decided to join the Castels chain in 1971.
Activities and facilities continued to grow. The heated pool was installed in 1989. The pool areas in the center of the village opened two years later in 1991. For older children, an archery range and adventure course were installed in 2005. We have had pony rides for children since 2007.
Parc de Fierbois has offered rental accommodations since 1970 with our first cabins near the lake. We update and renovate our rentals every year. Our Large Spaces 46 m² cabins for 5 to 6 people have been available since 2007.
The restaurant opened in 1970 and we added a pizzeria in 1985. The poolside bar, added in 2005 next to the pool area, created an area for entertainment and snacks all day long.
Parc de Fierbois reinvents itself every year to provide you with a holiday village that you will want to come back to with family or friends.
