  • Pools with waterslides, sauna and hammam all free for guests
  • Play area, evening entertainment and snack bar with free wifi
The beaches of Benodet are a smashing Brittany holiday spot. How fortuitous a setting then has Camping du Poulquer, a handsomely green site only 200 metres from these scenic sands and less than a kilometre from Benodet town centre. The old fishing port of Concarneau and the mightily traditional town of Quimper are both under half an hour's drive. For splashing around on site, a stay at du Poulquer also includes free access to its fine waterpark with indoor and outdoor pools, paddling pool, waterslides, hammam and sauna – again, all gratis for guests… There’s also a play area with netted trampoline, ping pong tables and big bouncy castle for kids, and regular activities such as pétanque tournaments and disco and karaoke nights for adults and teens. Food and free wifi are sorted at the snack bar. Camping du Poulquer is also equipped with toilet blocks suitable for disabled guests, free hot showers, a launderette and a washing-up corner. Bars, restaurants, shops, a spa and a casino are a short stroll away.

What customers say

This welcoming, family-run campground boasts a prime spot, a short walk from Benodet town and beaches. Visitors rave about the clean facilities, including well-kept pools and play areas, perfect for families. Sites are usually decent-sized and private. While most had a peaceful stay, some noted a lack of evening entertainment and occasional maintenance issues. A few mentioned some amenities and the on-site shop/bar weren't fully open off-peak.

Power optional grass campsite

Liked Great location 200m from the seafront. Good pools and plots were good sized although quite close together. Bread and pastries ready at 8am. Snack bar was there first day of our visit which was good.

Disliked Cleaning the new loos 7.30-9.00 seemed strange! No soap (nor toilet paper but that’s normal) and the old shower block had French toilets without seats. Also no hooks in the toilet or showers made it difficult to keep clothes dry.

Power optional grass campsite

Liked Very clean, lively pool, mature shady site

Disliked Need own soap and toilet paper in bathroom
Lack of communication in management caused an issue we were dragged into which shouldn't have happened. Mgmnt accepted they were in the wrong but no apology offered. Customer service needs work. Overcharged but I pointed out the error.

Local attractions

Spas and sands are the main order of leisurely business around seasidey Benodet: the town's known as a thalassotherapy centre and four golden sandy beaches are within a kilometre of Camping du Poulquer. As well as the beaches here, get along to Plage des Dames and the Plage des Sables Blancs for serene sunbathing, or take a ferry to the nearby Glénan Islands. Among the many other Finistère and Brittany options easily reached from Benodet is Concarneau, the third biggest fishing port in France which has an Old Town on a rocky island just off the coast, a fishing museum and a fine indoor market selling fish (mais oui), fruit, veg and other local produce. Another must is Quimper, the old Brittany town where you'll still see women in traditional Breton dress (and head coverings), among the cobbled streets and half-timbered buildings. You could also take a look at the port town of Pont-l'Abbé, with the remains of its 14th-century castle as well as the Bigouden Museum also showcasing traditional dress and headpieces, or the village of Locranon. For outdoorsy antics, hike along the 12-kilometre circular trail through the forest of Bois de Névet, looking out for deer, foxes, badgers and buzzards along the way.
