  • 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.

Liked Abbiamo apprezzato le passeggiate nei dintorni da fare con il nostro cane, camping dog friendly (all’arrivo danno anche un regalino di benvenuto con biscottini e sacchettini). I proprietari disponibili, nonostante il bar fosse chiuso ci hanno dato due botte fresche.

Disliked Essendo in una cava, e avendo noi beccato il periodo più caldo negli ultimi 150 anni (giugno 2026), girava davvero poca aria.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Buongiorno,

Grazie mille per aver condiviso la vostra esperienza 😊

Siamo molto felici che abbiate apprezzato le passeggiate nei dintorni con il vostro cane e il nostro spirito dog friendly. Per noi è importante che anche i nostri amici a quattro zampe si sentano i benvenuti! 🐶

Grazie anche per le vostre gentili parole sui proprietari e sul piccolo gesto delle bevande fresche, nonostante il bar fosse chiuso.

Per quanto riguarda il caldo, è vero che avete soggiornato durante un periodo eccezionalmente caldo, con temperature record per la stagione. La particolare posizione del campeggio, situato in un'antica cava, offre generalmente un ambiente riparato e piacevole, ma durante questa eccezionale ondata di calore l'aria era purtroppo meno presente del solito.

Speriamo di avere il piacere di accogliervi nuovamente, magari con temperature più miti, per permettervi di godere ancora di più del nostro piccolo angolo di natura.

Cordiali saluti,
Il team del Camping Les Gravelets

Liked Modern mobil home (1 jaar oud). Schoon en goed geoutilleerd. Heerlijk rustige camping. Prima Wifi. Ruime plaats en parkeren naast het mobil home (nr 10). Twee kilometer van een prachtig strand.
Elke ochtend werden de bestelde croissants bij het mobil home afgeleverd

Disliked We waren in het voorseizoen. Dus geen foodtrucks.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Merci d’avoir pris le temps de partager votre expérience. Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez apprécié l’accueil et l’ambiance conviviale du camping.

Concernant l’aire de jeux située à proximité de votre emplacement, nous comprenons que cela puisse ne pas convenir à tous les vacanciers. Celle-ci fait partie des équipements destinés aux familles et sa localisation est fixe. En basse saison, comme vous l’avez constaté, son utilisation reste généralement limitée.
Pour un prochain séjour, n’hésitez pas à nous faire part de vos préférences lors de votre réservation ; dans la mesure du possible, nous essaierons de vous orienter vers un emplacement correspondant davantage à vos attentes.

Au plaisir de vous accueillir à nouveau aux Gravelets !

Paul J. 1 review

Electric grass and earth pitch

Liked I stayed here for one night while touring on my motorcycle and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The hosts were incredibly helpful, the site was clean, and the facilities were excellent.

I had originally planned to camp, but due to heavy rain, I switched to one of the camping pods — which turned out to be a great choice. The pod was comfortable and well-maintained.

Toilet, washing, and cooking facilities were just a short walk away in one of the chalets, and everything was spotless and convenient.

Highly recommended for anyone touring or looking for a comfortable stopover!

Disliked The only negative with was the lack of phone signal / WiFi where the pods are situated. You can get it when using the facilities in the chalet though.

I can understand why as you are in an old stone quarry but maybe Wi-Fi boosters could be added.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you so much for your wonderful review 🌿! We're delighted that your motorcycle stopover went well despite the unpredictable weather, and that you appreciated the comfort of our pods and the cleanliness of the site.

Our campsite is located in a former quarry, which makes for a unique, peaceful, and wind-protected setting, but this can sometimes reduce the signal a little. We've taken note of your suggestion regarding Wi-Fi repeaters—an improvement we're considering for next season.

We look forward to welcoming you back on your next visit to the region 🏍️

Very pleasent stay

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.
