Hi everyone. I like many have been looking through loads of different sites in southern Britanny for our 2 week family holiday this year July/August 2005. We have two children of girl 9 and boy 6 am going with my sister whom has 2 boys of 2 and five. We would like recommendations of fairly quiet near atlantic coast beach resorts freindly welcoming sites in this area. All respones greatly appreciated.

Try Camp-de-Letty at Benodet. Fabulous clean site with small bar area and shop. Very little noise as most holiday makers are family orientated. Right on sandy beach and approx. 10-15 minute walk along the coast into Benodet whcih is very clean town with a beautiful sandy beach with swings, pool area, etc. on the beach for younger children.

Sailed Plymouth to Roskoff. Booked everything through www.select-sites.co.uk at Abergaveny - excellent service cannot be faulted. Why not contact them for brochure of all sites in western Europe. Enjoy your holiday and good luck.

We're going to L'Orangerie de Lanniron which is a Castels site. They're ideal in that they offer a high standard and all have good facilities and entertainment if you want it but PEACE at night. We're going with our children and friends with their children so looking around we were in a similar position to you. www.lanniron.com

You could do a lot worse that this site 'Camping Atlantique'

Beg Meil, Brittany.

It has a web site.

To find it place a ruler verticaly on your map of France. Top at Roscoff, due South as far as you can go in Britany is Beg Meil.

Great site for the kids. Super clean pools etc. But the beach that lies along a wooded pathway is to die for

We have been three times over the years. Never had a bad experience. Brilliant place with lots of great towns around about.

We go to Camping le Bohat in Sarzeau on the Gulf of Morbihan every year and can't recommend it enough.Web site :www.campinglebohat.com

I strongly recommend Camping Du Letty in Benodet. We discovered this site on our first trip to France 10 years ago. We have returned, latterly as caravanners, on 5 of the subsequent years - our 5 kids always protested if we went anywhere else!

The beautifully maintained site is large but divided up by hedges into shady bays of c.8 pitches. Some pitches overlook the beach. The site is adjacent to a small, tidal river estuary which provides a large, clean & safe beach and swimming spot at all but high tide. Many campers take boats, all sizes, which can be launched/moored free in the river.

The site is quiet and peaceful with excellent facilities away from the pitches. Including small supermarket, 2 bars, a gym, library, tennis courts and playground. There are a few arranged activities. Our kids always entertained themselves - mainly on on beach and sea/river. The site is featured in the Alan Rogers guide and it has its own illustrated web site (search for du letty)

Benodet is a pleasant, picturesque seaside resort at the mouth of the river Odet. It has supermarket, shops, cinema, restaurants,marina & even Church services in English!

Roscoff, nearest, is less than 2 hours pleasant drive away but it gets booked-up quite early. We have, also, travelled via St Malo, Cherbourg and Caen. The AA website free provides route plans to Du Letty from all 4 French ports

We booked our ferry through the Camping & Caravan Club (reduced) price.

Site booking is not necessary as they always have room, even in high summer. We didn't book on first & several other occasions. Direct booking is cheaper than holiday companies.
