Campsites Loire and Brittany

[Dogleg T6er]

Hi all,

Planning a road trip from Orleans down the Loire to the coast, then heading up to Brittanny. We have just under 3 weeks. Probably ferry to Calais as it's cheaper, and come back from St Malo. Any suggestions on itenery and good sites would be welcomed. Do I need to book? We have an 8 year old, so will have to consider her needs for a fun time. Thanks all.

I’m not too good on that part of France but what I can recommend are:
Beaugency - camping Val de Flux. Pretty town next to the Loire.
Chinon is nice and has the castle. Lots of Joan of Arc links etc.
Ile de Re well worth a few days if you want to drop a little south. But if you’re going in high season you might find it a bit packed and pricey - it’s Paris-on-sea in July and August.

There's a good little campsite at St. Martin-de-la-Place near Saumur

It has access to the river, and they do canoe hire.
You can book online.

Brittany - your child (and you) would love Camping du Letty. Also, Chateau de Galinee is great the night before the St Malo ferry back. (Or, for a couple of nights!)

Best campsite I’ve ever been to, generally do a few days every year now. Kid will love the pool and they do a great kids show and fireworks on the weekend.
