La Bourbansais

Location: Follow the N137 30km south of St Malo to Pleugueuneuc, then take the D75 east to the zoo.
General Info: Website. Tel no: 02 99 69 40 07.  Entrance fee €15 adult, €11 child (additional charge for guided tour of the château).  Opening hours from 10AM – 7PM April to September, 2PM - 6PM at other times.
Description: This is an outstanding open air attraction offering a variety of entertainment for a full family day out featuring a zoo, château, outdoor games and a maze.

Our recommendations:  Look out for the special events, including falconry and horse riding displays.  This is not a cheap day out, however there is plenty to entertain you so we recommend you arrive early and plan to spend the day there.
For the children: The maze is only open in summer months but is great fun for the kids and they will enjoy letting off steam here.
