Camping in Brittany, North Western France
 Brittany in general is probably the most popular place in France for Brits taking camping and mobile home holidays.
One of the major attractions is the ease of access with several ferry ports on the doorstep - Roscoff, St Malo, Cherbourg and Caen. The local food and drink specialities are also greatly appreciated in Brittany!
But as a place for a good, relaxing break then camping in Brittany is hard to beat. Places like Carnac on the south coast with the Megaliths, or Alignments which were probably placed there at or before the time of our own Stone Henge just have to be visited.
Then there is nearby Quiberon, the 15 km long peninsular near to Carnac where there are several campsites at the far end near to Quiberon town, and the resorts of Beg-Meil, Benodet and Concarneau with it's historic fishing port all have superb facilities for holidays. The must see sight in Concarneau is the Ville Close, a small, highly fortified 13th century citadelle on a rocky island in the bay. Ville Close is extremely popular with visitors due not only to its picturesque setting but also the fishing museum and many Breton shops.
In northern Brittany there is a little place called Perros-Guirec which really needs exploring. It is on the Côte de Granit Rose or pink granite coast and you will be able to see the incredible water sculpted rocks for which the Pink Granite Coast is famous.
Not far from Perros and very near to the Roscoff ferry port is another small camping town called Carantec which is in la Baie de Morlaix, an ideal place if you don't want to drive far!
Campsites are dotted all over Brittany; there are so many that it would be difficult to stick a pin in a map and not hit an area noted for camping holidays. There is a mass of history in the area too. The Brittany coastline is both rugged and beautiful at the same time, with rocky beaches featuring on most people's holiday snaps. In fact, some areas of the Southern Brittany coast are so rocky and dangerous that swimming is banned altogether - there are signs so don't worry about it. In any case, if you want a swim then every camping site has a pool these days, and some even have two - in and outdoor.
All our camping holidays in Brittany can be booked accommodation only or packaged with a ferry crossing. Should you wish to book your ferry separately, you can get a quote or make a booking on our ferries to France page.
