The site has a mix of pitch sizes for tourers and tents, despite giving the unit size when booking there is no attempt to match the unit to the pitch. My unit would not physically fit on the pitch I had been allocated on arrival. This site also suffers from poor drainage (the ground is heavy clay) hence if it rains for a couple of days the site suffers from standing water on a lot of the pitches. There is an indoor and outdoor pool which were extremely busy due to this being peak season. The toilet blocks were always reasonably clean but good to with revamping. We never had to queue for the loos or showers. In summary, this is not the best Castels site I have ever stayed at,that said I found the staff to be helpful and thoroughly recommend this region of Brittany as a holiday destination

Arrived at end of very wet two weeks at site so maybe staff fed up! Reception staff very good at 'Gallic shrugs' and not at all welcoming. Mens loos, apparently, had signs of rust on outflow drains in floor. Times of new indoor swimming pool opening not adhered to (on first day of opening) and my husband had trouble with too much chlorine in pool, affecting his eyes for several hours.New bar opening evening not made a welcoming experience and noticed it was empty a great deal of time . Won't be returning and disappointed at general 'ambience' as it IS Castels and Camping and we expected more.

If you want quiet rest and relaxation this site is recommended, request perimeter pitch and you will not be disappointed. Pool area well maintained and relaxing. Staff speak excellent English and very helpful - part of the Castels group which means if you camp off season you can buy a card for £10 euro which enables you to have an electric hook up pitch @ 16 euros per night [this is quite a saving if as average prices are up to 25 euro. The card is valid in the off peak season and re usable all the year of purchase. So you could use it Jan - July and Sept - December as long as you are on one of their sites. This site is not on the coast [approx 10 mins drive] but is is within 5mins drive of a large supermarket. Close to St Malo, Dinard and Dinan + Fort le Latte [from numerous films including the Vikings]. Coast and drives - magnificent. Bon voyage!

My wife, 15 & 12 year old boys and I spent 19 nights here and we plan to return next year. We crossed from Dover to Calais. A long drive to the site but 99% motorway. We took our own trailer tent which is nearly 27 feet long from the tow-hitch to the end of the awning. Nevertheless it fitted easily onto the spacious hedge lined pitch with more than adequate space at the side. Water, electricity and mains drainage is provided. I think the original intention was to allow chemical toilets to be emptied into the covered drain on each pitch but this is not allowed now and toilets have to be emptied at the facility located at the sanitation block.
We had a particularly quiet pitch away from the roads which suited us. A one way traffic system and 10 KPH speed limit with speed humps is present. You have to watch kids on bikes though because they go where they please. On arrival you are issued with a code for the security barrier at the entrance to the site. The shop was adequate for essentials. Fresh bread is baked daily on site but goes quickly. There is also a takeaway for pizza and burgers but no restaurant. The pool complex is excellent and supervised though I'll come back to this. We didn't visit the bar once but that was simply because we prefer to buy beer and wine locally and chill out by the tent. I found the staff on reception to be friendly and helpful. Good English is spoken which is great when my 'O' level French was stretched.
Right then; points to watch. Reception opens 9 am to 12 noon and 2 pm to 7 pm. Don't arrive when it's shut because you will sit outside until it opens. This may mean overnight! There is only one shower/loo/wash block. Men and women have separate facilities. It is kept clean but if you're at the far end of the site you may have a bit of a trek. There are 8 showers, 8 loos and 8 wash cubicles with shaver points in the mens block and the women have the same. The showers are excellent with plenty of power and hot water. I only had to queue once or twice for about 5 minutes at peak times. (Never for a loo though) There is a nursery cubicle for bathing infants in the ladies block. A third block was for the exclusive use of families but we didn't venture in there. There was a small block of three loos at the far end of the site as well. Dish washing facilities are in the same block. However the laundry sinks are in the same room and yet despite the clear signs people insisted on washing their greasy plates in sinks intended for laundry. This is probably my only gripe with the facilities because being there for nearly three weeks it was necessary to do a bit of washing. There are washing machines and dryers for larger loads if required.
To use the pool you will have to have wrist bands costing 5 Euros each; which is refunded on return of the bands. Please note the following. The rule forbidding the wearing of shorts in the pool is rigorously enforced. My sons plus numerous others; kids and adults, over the duration of our stay were ordered out of the pool if they were wearing anything other than trunks. So we had to buy trunks. Getting back to pool supervision; basically the staff are there to monitor swimwear and to enforce the "no shorts" rule. They are not lifeguards.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this site and fully intend to return. It's a great base to explore from. We fell in love with the area. The people are friendly. The coastline is magical with golden sand, a crystal clear warm sea, castles and coves. The sea food is the best I've tasted.
Finally there is a Super U and Spar supermarket five minutes away in Matignon. These are in addition to local shops, bars, Tabacs, restaurants and banks with cash points. There is everything you'd expect in a small modern town. Go for it!
