  • Quiet Normandy site five minutes’ drive from Montmartin-sur-Mer beach
  • Mont Saint-Michel an hour’s drive; D-Day landing beaches 90 minutes
  • Sports facilities, play area and games room; bar and shop
With an unusual setting in a former stone quarry planted with trees and shrubs, Camping Les Gravelets is in the Manche department of coastal Normandy. It sits on peaceful grounds with a handy location five minutes’ drive from the sandy beach at Montmartin-sur-Mer, and 15 minutes’ walk from the local supermarket. Convenient on-site facilities include a mini-market selling the basics, a bar that opens in the evening and a breakfast bread service (the latter only in high season). During the high season, food trucks visit the site, adding some food options. You can keep kids of all ages busy with a play area, pétanque and the tennis court close by. The games room has board games, snooker, table football and a TV to take care of teens wanting to be independent of their parents. Chances are you might be out and about a lot of the time, however, as this region has much to offer. The long-distance GR223 hiking trail circumnavigates the spectacular Normandy coastline, and the D-Day landing beaches and associated museums are all within 90 minutes’ drive. Any sightseeing information you might need can be picked up at reception.

We’re delighted that you appreciated the cleanliness of our shower and toilet facilities — we place great importance on maintaining a clean and pleasant environment for our guests.
Concerning your pitch, we understand that access was not ideal for your VW Transporter. Please know that we did our best based on availability at the time of your booking. Had you informed us during your stay, we would have gladly tried to find a more suitable alternative.
Regarding the WiFi, we had informed you that access throughout the campsite is available as a paid option. You chose to use the free connection, which is only accessible around the reception area and bar — thank you for your understanding on this point.

Local attractions

Keen hikers can access the GR223 at Montmartin-sur-Mer (five minutes’ drive) for a bracing yomp along the Normandy coastline; alternatively families can flop on the beach at lively Agon-Coutainville (10 minutes), or rent a brightly painted beach hut at Gouville-sur-Mer (15 minutes) from which to launch forays into the sea. If you’re holidaying with kids, take them to explore all the nooks and crannies of Château de Pirou (25 minutes), a medieval fortress with ramparts and spiral staircases leading up towers. They’ll probably also enjoy the submarines and aquariums at La Cité de la Mer (90 minutes) in Cherbourg. The big-hitters in the region are undoubtedly Mont Saint-Michel (an hour), where a medieval cathedral tops an island cut off from the mainland at high tide, and the D-Day landing beaches (all within 90 minutes) on the northern Normandy coastline. Omaha Beach (about an hour) has a hard-hitting museum where you can learn about US naval troops landing on June 6, 1944.
