    Parc bien pensĂ© pour les jeunes enfants et les bĂ©bĂ©s. Mon petit fils d'un an pouvait marcher Ă  quatre pattes, essayer le petit toboggan, se mettre debout et se tenir Ă  diffĂ©rents jeux et mĂȘme faire du trampoline. Ce parc est trĂšs agrĂ©able, dans un beau cadre.

    Un grand parc sĂ©curisĂ© avec une aire de jeux pour les enfants. Les parents peuvent Ă©galement y pratiquer une activitĂ© sportive. Une boulangerie situĂ©e juste en face permet d’acheter de quoi manger ou prendre un goĂ»ter.
