Château de Fonrives

The 5-star camping site Marvilla Parks Château de Fonrives is an action-packed vacation destination in the Dordogne. It is set in green surroundings on the grounds of a typical French chateau. With excellent facilities, a colourful water park and a wide choice of accommodations, the campground is a wonderland for an outdoor escape in the heart of rural France.

The beating heart of Château de Fonrives is the campground's magnificent swimming complex. Here there are heated lagoon-style outdoor pools and an indoor heated pool. There is also a paddling pool and no less than six magnificent water slides. The entire water area is complemented by a spacious sun terrace and leads to a tranquil wellness centre where you can get massages and relax in the sauna.

Despite its rural location, the campground has a lot to offer in terms of activities. Play various sports such as soccer, tennis, volleyball, basketball and table tennis. Or compete with family and friends during a game of miniature golf or petanque. Archery is also available, in high season.

Children can clamber around the three on-site playgrounds and ride ponies in high season. For moments of contemplation, campers looking to clear their minds can go fishing.

Château de Fonrives and its accessible staff organize a variety of entertainment throughout the holidays. During the day there are sports competitions and water games. During the summer, youngsters are encouraged to participate in one of the special children's clubs offered on-site: Mini Club (5-7 years old), Kids Club (8-12 years old) and Teens Club (13-17 years old). The "acro-games" is new this year, as is the multi-sports ground for a game of soccer with and against your new camping friends. 

In the evening, there's plenty to do as well. Enjoy the evening program with the whole family with live shows on the new stage, music concerts and theme parties.

The restaurant at the camping serves traditional dishes from the region, as well as French favorites and well-known international dishes. It has a shaded terrace and is a great place to enjoy snacks, refreshing drinks and cocktails. Take-out food, or do some shopping in the camp store and cook for yourself, is also possible.

Château de Fonrives offers a wide choice of accommodations, from modern mobile homes to pitches with electricity and comfortable chalets with terraces. Each option is located in a serene and private spot, so you can enjoy a relaxing stay in the Dordogne.
