Camping de la Tour

Sporty families will soon be swimming, rock pooling or fishing on uncrowded Plage de Trehervé (five minutes’ drive/20 minutes’ walk). Landlubbers with young kids can follow the level coastal path around the Baie de Kervoyal to Cromenac’h, stopping off at secluded little coves as they go, and popular family cycle rides include the looped route to Port de Penerf from Damgan (about an hour by bike). Stuck for family days out? Take the kids to whoosh down the waterslides while you lounge in the sauna at Aquagolfe - Aquatic Center Vannes Agglo (20 minutes’ drive), or spot the life-size model dinosaurs on a stroll through the woodland at La Croix Neuve Malansac (40 minutes). If you’re keen to squeeze a bit of culture into your Brittany break, pay a visit to historic Vannes (half an hour’s drive) to amble around the landmark ramparts, admire the architectural mash-up that is the Cathédrale Saint-Pierre or inspect works by Eugène Delacroix and 19th-century landscape artists at the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Vannes, La Cohue, partly housed in a medieval tower.
