  • Family-friendly site on Brittany's Pink Granite Coast
  • Long stretch of private beach next to the park
  • Heated pool, paddling pool, fishing, playground and restaurant
A Brittany base close to the Pink Granite Coast is colourfully smashing enough… but when it has its own beach? Sorted for excellent hols. Set on a small green peninsula jutting out into the Atlantic, RCN Port l'Épine is a family-friendly park at the seaside town of Trélévern, in a handy base for getting around its Côtes d'Armor department, the north of Brittany, Finistère, Morbihan and popular Breton towns like Dinan and Saint-Malo. It's a few kilometres from the Côte de Granit-Rose, to the west of the Cote d'Emeraude: all is rather colourful around these parts indeed… There's plenty to do on site if you're not in the mood for the beach, including a heated pool and a heated paddling pool, a play area with trampoline, fishing, giant chess, table tennis, table football and regular events and activities in high season from the English-speaking entertainment team. Organised walking tours around the region are held in early and late season. RCN Port l'Épine also has a restaurant with a terrace and snack takeaway, and a fresh bread service with rolls and baked goods delivered every day (please note you might have to order what you want outside of high season). The site has a wifi hotspot: just ask at reception for an access card.

Liked The large flat pitch sizes separated by hedges. The beach and costal path just a shot walk away. Lovely walk/ cycle along the coast very picturesque.
Excellent toilets and showers.

Disliked Some bass noise from the bar from the music but didn’t last too long (perhaps I’m just getting old!!)

Lovely big private pitch. Showers and toilets modern and clean. Great access…

Liked Situation right by the sea. Very green with plenty of trees. Easy access to the coastal path. Very international clientele and friendly staff. Modern facilities (but nothing to dry hands and no plugs in sinks - like many French campsites). Swimming pool and bar a plus. The free basic WiFi worked well when we were there, but site was relatively quiet.

Disliked Washing up water was not hot, and many people commented on this. Note that many of the pitches slope and need ramps.

Great quiet site in fabulous location on the Rose Granite coast

Liked Wonderful location, right on beachside. Great for dog walks in the morning! Small, quiet site. Pitches semi meadow, but nice with it. Some shadier pitches would be good in summer. Beachfront pitches would be nice next time. Restaurant friendly and food and drink reasonable. Facilities very good modern and clean

Disliked Electric cut out first night but sorted by next day. Friendly mainly Dutch team very helpful

Beautiful beach location

Liked The park was well laid out with good facilities and the location is beautiful.
The staff were friendly and were accommodating when it was clear our motorhome was too large for the allocated pitch.
It was a great location to visit other highlights in the area.

Disliked Lack of hand drying after using the toilet but not a massive issue

Local attractions

RCN Port l’Épine's coastal setting of Côtes d'Armor has old Breton culture, modern family attractions, watersports, nature, forests, seaside resorts and shoreline hikes all easily doable within walking or day trip distance. Windsurfing, boating and sailing are available nearby, along with sea fishing and trout stream fishing at local town Trélévern, a couple of kilometres away. For hiking and biking, follow the GR 34, the Brittany Coastal Path running along the route used by 17th- and 18th-century coastguards. The Pink Granite Coast from Perros Guirec (20 minutes' drive) to Trégastel is probably one of Brittany's best-known scenic spots for hiking along with a camera. At its centre, the swish seaside resort of Perros-Guirec is another popular Breton coastal place, with a lively beach and plenty of cafés and shops. From Perros Guirec's Trestraou beach, hike along the coast to the fishing village at Ploumanac'h and then on to Pointe de Squewel, via more pink rock of interesting formations. Inland, see the historic town of Lannion a few kilometres south of Perros-Guirec, for a wander around its centre full of medieval and 15th- and 16th-century buildings.
