  • Quiet and friendly site 25 miles from Roscoff, run by a British couple
  • By Lac du Drennec in a national park; watersports centre close by
  • Beach, lakeside restaurant and bar
What a splendid site. There's pretty much all you need at the serene and mightily scenic lakeside site of Camping Le Drennec in Brittany – 'idyllic', 'little paradise' and 'wonderful' are among the guest accolades here... If you're arriving from or on your way to L'Angleterre, you'll likely hurrah at the setting too, hidden away in a rural spot but only 45 minutes' drive from Roscoff. Guests of all ilks will be well pleased too to hear of Le Drennec's other fab features: a spectacular lakeside location beside the fishing haven of Lac du Drennec; surroundings in Finistère's Armorique Regional Natural Park; a beach right next door, and a hugely warm and friendly welcome from English owners Belinda and Andrew. Facilities include a tennis court, a covered outdoor area with picnic tables and a shop selling ice creams, snacks and basic provisions. The beach next to the lake has a play area, volleyball net and table tennis; guests can of course also use the sands as a launching point for lake paddles and swims, or amble over to the watersports centre two minutes' walk away for more active lake-based options. Fishing's a popular pastime in the lake too; just make sure you bag a local permit before casting off. Also next to the lake is the swish Au Lac bar and restaurant, with terrace and accompanying stunning view, plus a changing menu of homemade food. There's a communal barbecue and firepit if you'd rather sort supper or breakfast pitchside; bread can be ordered in advance for the following day and supplies picked up in local town Commana, 10 minutes' drive away. On site, there's a snack shack serving a selection of hot food at weekends in low season and every evening in July and August.

What customers say

This peaceful campsite by a beautiful lake has spacious, shaded spots and a warm welcome from its friendly English owners. Guests love the stunning natural setting, great for walking and water sports. Facilities are clean but dated. Snack shack and bread delivery are popular. WiFi is limited, but 4G is good. Some noted a lack of hot water for dishes and limited toilets at peak times.

Power optional grass travel trailer campsite

Liked The owners were very welcoming and helpful. The site was attractive and the pitches were good. Good facilities. The area was lovely for walking from the site especially with extremely good written guide available. Even with a drought the lake was beautiful and sunset over the lake was magical.

Power optional grass travel trailer campsite

Liked Welcoming and authentic hosts. It was a great bonus to be able to order bread for delivery the following morning. The site is peaceful and the lake readily accessible. Great for the dogs because walks are on the doorstep! As others have previously mentioned, the site is a great stop over point for arriving or departing from Roscoff. Recycling facilities are at the site exit which was appreciated because at other sites we had to take our rubbish with us and try and locate recycling facilities in towns/villages. Not ideal on a hot day!

Disliked Nothing I can think of!

Local attractions

Lac du Drennec covers 110 hectares so is a stellar spot for watersports, lakeside walks and wildlife spotting; it's a famed brown and rainbow trout fishing lake too, with about 8,000 rainbow trout of up to 2kg added to the waters each year. Also close by, nearby riding stable can arrange hacks out into the countryside and natural park surrounds around the lake. For hiking further afield, Belinda and Andrew recommend wanders around the Monts d'Arrée mountain range: a top pick to hike up to is Saint-Michel Chapel on Mont Saint-Michel de Brasparts, accessible from Saint-Rivoal 10 minutes' drive away. The spectacular views from here include the Brittany peat bogs, the lake at Brennilis and countryside all the way to Morlaix Bay: bring your camera along. The north and west coasts of Brittany are within 30 to 45 minutes' drive.
