Camping holidays in Brittany

A camping holiday in Brittany will place you in one of France’s most distinctive regions, with a strong cultural heritage, great countryside and some truly superb campsites. Brittany’s rugged northern coastline houses a maze of rocky coves, sandy bays, yachts and fishing boats, while the south bears long stretches of glorious sand and sophisticated resorts, and delicious offerings of shellfish and cider. It is a region that rewards exploration, and whether you choose to stay in the north or south, staying in a tent or mobile home in a Brittany campsite is the most enjoyable way to experience the unique countryside.

Our campsites and mobile homes in Brittany have been carefully selected for their quality and location. The campsites are all extremely well equipped, with a wide range of facilities and activities to keep you entertained on your Brittany camping holiday whether you are travelling as a couple or a family. Here at Canvas holidays we offer the finest campsites and mobile homes in Brittany at the best possible prices.



There are plenty of local attractions to visit whilst on a camping holiday in Brittany:

Mont St Michel - an awe-inspiring medieval abbey church, known as ‘the marvel’, and visible from all around the bay. A tour, Les Imaginaires du Mont Saint Michel, allows you to explore this beautiful setting by night.

Pointe du Raz – the ‘lands end’ of France sits on a rocky outcrop above the sea, offering good walking country and dramatic views over the Atlantic Ocean

Standing Stones, Carnac – on the outskirts of Carnac, you can see the 2,395 Menhirs (standing stones) that make up the three alignments, pointing with great accuracy towards the points of the compass.

Golfe de Morbihan – the ‘Little Sea’ gulf forms an almost complete circle. The gulf floods twice a day and is the breeding ground for vast numbers of sea birds. Take a boat trip from Vannes to one of the islands - Ile aux Moines has some lovely beaches, and it is a perfect place to catch a little sun while camping in Brittany.

Vannes – is a busy and charming medieval town with narrow winding streets, and a lively open air market in the town centre. Walk along the Promenade de la Garenne and the ramparts.

Océanopolis – a fabulous crab-shaped aquarium and research centre in Brest, where you can discover a great variety of marine life in its natural habitat, including sharks and penguins. A great place to visit while on a family camping holiday in Brittany!
