The campsite is easily accessible by ferry or by plane. Whether you hire a car or take your own, driving in France is considerably easier than it is in the UK as the roads are much much quieter. There are also no tolls on any of the autoroutes within Brittany. Distances from the ferry ports are shown opposite.
Due to the Atlantic trade winds the region offers a warmer climate - ideal for the perfect holiday. |
