Camping le Châtelet

We may have mentioned that Camping le Châtelet is in splendid setting for Brittany beaches… as well as old fishing ports, coastal hikes and the old centre of Saint-Malo within 30 minutes' drive. The campsite's locale on the Emerald Coast is about ten minutes' walk from the shops, restaurants and bars of St Cast/Saint-Cast-le-Guildo, the site's local town and a seaside spot with smart villas and seashell collecting at the Baie de la Fresnaie. From St Cast, those who haven't gorged too much on a lunch of Brittany seafood can hike to the esteemed Cap Fréhel lighthouse within a few hours. The lighthouse is (obvs) on the Cap Fréhel, a beau spot that we insist should be a mission for at least a few days for its spectacular scenery, wildlife and walking; we also insist on a trip across the drawbridge to the excellent fourteenth century castle Fort La Latte. Another must in the area is the old fishing city of Saint-Malo, with its ancient walls, citadel, Grand Aquarium and many, many opps to guzzle seafood.
