Puy du Fou
This hugely popular theme park featuring the talents of some 2,550 actors in 28,000 costumes, stays open until 7 November, making it a great visit fduring half-term break. Rather than rides, Puy du Fou offers a variety of immersive themed shows featuring musketeers, Vikings and birds of prey, as well as villages styled in different periods, from medieval to 19th century.
The pièce de resistance is the evening show: the dramatic Les Noces de Feu display involve fire and water as it takes spectators on a romanticised journey through the 19th century.
