This summer, they chose Brittany: 5 places to absolutely (re)discover

Brittany, a favorite destination for campervan travelers

Summer in a campervan means the freedom to explore without constraints, and for many campervan enthusiasts, Brittany is an obvious choice. With its wild coastline, picturesque villages, deeply rooted traditions and easy way of life, this region attracts thousands of travelers each year in search of authenticity. Whether you're a fan of seaside hikes, salted butter caramel crepes or sunsets over the ocean, Brittany has everything to win you over.

This summer, CAMPING-CAR PARK asked its community of travelers for their favorite spots in Brittany. Here's their top 5, not to be missed if you're planning an itinerary in this legendary region. All these locations are accessible with the Digital Pass, your key to simple, contactless access to over 500 areas throughout France and Europe.

Hirel: a peaceful stopover facing Mont-Saint-Michel

Located in the bay of Mont-Saint-Michel, the Hirel area offers a breathtaking view of the vast sandy expanses and the plays of light typical of the region. Fans of bike or foot rides will be delighted by the Duchesse Anne dike, while foodies can enjoy fresh oysters and Breton galettes.

This destination is ideal for those seeking calm and proximity to nature. The area is well-equipped, with spacious pitches and a breathtaking view. It is accessible 24/7 thanks to the Digital Pass, which allows you to enter and exit independently. A recommended stop to start your Breton journey!

Customer review - Sébastien A. (14/07/2025): "Very well located, close to the sea, shaded and spacious pitches. The ambassador present on the site is very friendly and available."

Gâvres: between ocean and lagoon

To the south of Morbihan, Gâvres is a little-known peninsula that offers one of the most beautiful panoramas on the Breton coast. The campervan area is just a stone's throw from the beach, and fans of shore fishing or swimming will be in their element. This small fishing village has retained all its authenticity.

The walk to the Grande Plage de Gâvres is a must, as is a seafood tasting at the port. For campervan members of the Privilege Pack, exclusive advantages are available: priority access to certain areas, reduced rates and dedicated customer service. A way to travel even more serenely.

Customer review - Patrick F. (13/07/2025): "Magnificent area, very spacious, by the sea. The pitches are vast and everyone sets up in camping mode without any worries. Small port 10 minutes away on foot for a boat trip to Port-Louis. Spar supermarket 5 minutes away (bread!). 150 places but immense terrain! In season, come before noon to have space."

Pont-Aven: following in the footsteps of painters

Made famous by Gauguin and his followers, Pont-Aven is a gem of Finistère. This artists' village invites you to stroll along the Aven river, among mills, art galleries and renowned biscuit factories. The motorhome area, well integrated into the landscape, allows easy access to the historic center.

Pont-Aven is an inspiring destination, offering a perfect blend of culture, nature and gastronomy.
