  • 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, natural campsite by a beautiful lake is great for swimming and watersports. Owners Belinda and Andrew are praised for their warm welcome. Pitches are spacious and shaded. Facilities are clean, though some call them basic. Evening burgers are a hit. Some noted limited washrooms at peak times and lake noise.

Power optional grass travel trailer campsite

Liked Schöne Lage. Herrlicher See und ein tolles Restaurant am See. Schattiger Platz und groß.

Disliked Platz war an einem Parkplatz vom See und Straßenkreuzung . Ständig hörbare Autos und knallende Türen. Fußboden wenn er nass war klebte an den Schuhen.

Petite Foret primitive forest floor tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked Friendly owners and great location with shady pitches. The nearby lake and beach are perfect for families and it was lovely to be able to order fresh bread and pastries delivered every morning. Our boy loved building dens with his new friends in the woods!

Le Jardin powered grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked Fabulous and wonderful campsite in a beautiful setting.
The owners of the campsite, Belinda and Andrew, are so friendly and welcoming and took the time to show us round all the pitches when we arrived, answer all our many queries and they were wonderful with our children who adored them and loved running down to the shop to speak to them and order their bread etc
The campsite is really beautiful with lots of shaded spots and beautiful trees and is literally 2 mins walk from the lake which was perfect for swimming in and playing on the beach and there is also a lovely quiet bar there where you can order drinks and ice creams.
I've stayed in many campsites across Europe and this is honestly one of the best - very very highly recommend, you don't be disappointed.

 Lara J. 5 reviews

Power optional grass travel trailer campsite

Liked Love the site - handy little shop really lovely pitch - clean toilets - good washing up facilities - Really great pools and the slides were a real treat for the children - clean site -staff at reception and all over were incredibly friendly - food and bar on site was great too - only a really short walk to the main part of Benodet and the lovely beach and restaurants

Disliked No loo roll in the toilets wasn't the norm for us - just one roll outside the cubicles which was usually gone by midday and not refilled. Easily overcome though as we just brought our own so not an issue.

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.
