  • 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 La mobilité des gens, camping très propre

Disliked Très frais la première nuit, effectivement le camping ne fournit pas les draps ce qui est tout à fait logique par contre juste peut-être une couette vu que les oreillers sont fournis, car il est vrai que quand on vient en vacances on ne pense pas forcément à prendre une couette avec nous surtout pour une famille sinon rien à dire super camping l'accueil et le personnel très agréable.

From the manager: Bonjour,

Un grand merci pour votre retour très complet 😊

Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez apprécié la propreté du camping ainsi que l’accueil et la gentillesse de notre équipe. Nous sommes également heureux que votre séjour vous ait globalement donné entière satisfaction.

Nous comprenons tout à fait votre remarque concernant la couette, notamment lors des nuits plus fraîches. Comme vous le soulignez, nous ne fournissons pas les draps dans nos hébergements, mais nous proposons bien des draps et des couettes à la location pour les vacanciers qui le souhaitent. Nous prenons toutefois en compte votre suggestion concernant une couette disponible directement dans les logements.

Merci encore pour votre remarque constructive et votre recommandation. Au plaisir de vous accueillir de nouveau au Camping Les Gravelets

Liked Nit a lot

Disliked Lovely greeting by the owners but then oh dear ! Very small pitches and very close to each other. Too many crammed in to small area. No privacy. We were surrounded by many groups of kids on what looked like outward bounds type course. 7 tents on the Pitch next to us. Need to decide if this is a family campsite or an outwards bounds youth centre. Never again.

From the manager: Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.

We are pleased that you appreciated the warm welcome from our team, as making our guests feel at home is very important to us.

We are, however, sorry that your stay for 1 night did not fully meet your expectations. Our campsite is designed as a peaceful, family-friendly campsite where campers, caravans, motorhomes and rental accommodations share the same natural setting. Our pitches comply with the standards for a 2-star campsite and are appreciated by the vast majority of our guests for their spaciousness and the unique environment of our former quarry, and 7 tents on 1 pitch small!!!

Regarding the group of young campers, they were staying as part of an organised holiday camp. These groups are welcomed only on an occasional basis and are supervised at all times. We ensure that they respect the campsite rules and the peace of other guests.

We understand that this atmosphere may not have matched what you were looking for, and we thank you for sharing your point of view.

We wish you all the best in finding a campsite that better suits your expectations for future holidays.

Kind regards,

The Camping Les Gravelets Team

Powered grass and earth campsite

Liked Very friendly team running the campsite. We visited on a very hot weekend and had a beautifully shady pitch. The shower and toilet facilities were plentiful and clean. There were drinks and snacks available at the site, but the town is only a 10 minute walk and has a couple of restaurants and bars to choose from. Overall I would highly recommend Les Gravelets and I'm sure I will return.

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.
