For us reserved English men, the wearing of speedos are often viewed with a sense of fear, after all there are very few people who carry the look off.  But we can say from personal experience, check out the Happy Camper, that without a pair you can be prevented from swimming so it is always worth taking them with you.

La Plage at La Trinite sur Mer is a most attractive parc, neatly divided by trees and hedges and set amidst the well-kept gardens of an old Breton farmhouse. Boasting a small friendly pool with waterslide, it’s also just a short walk from a shop, takeaway and bar/restaurant with lovely sea views. All sorts of activities are organised for children in high season and older ones can also join in the fun at occasional concerts in the bar. However, it’s the direct access to a sheltered sandy beach that brings so many families with young children back time after time. Beyond the parc, La Trinité-sur-Mer, originally a small fishing port, is now an important centre for the yachting fraternity and also has a popular market. Our 36th year at this parc.

Local events in South Brittany

With its rich celtic culture, festivals abound here. Festival de la cite des Hortensias at Perros-Guirec, a 2 day International festival in the centre of town, 12th to 14th August; La Fete de la Morue in Binic from 5th to 8th May celebrates local fishing and the Festival des Ramparts in Dinan from 22nd to 23rd July features jousting knights in the heart of this fine medieval city.

Getting to Brittany

Fly drive is a convenient option for Brittany with regional airports at Brest, Dinard, Rennes and Nantes. Alternatively there are ferries that go from Portsmouth, Poole and Plymouth.

Holiday parks are great for a family break this Easter, so why not have a look at a whole range of Parks in France.  If you are  after a short break and not wanting to travel as far as Provence and Cote D’Aur this Easter then Brittany and Normandy are ideal alternative locations.  You will find Thomson Al Fresco at a number of these sites but also check out Eurocamp and Keycamp who also offer excellent quality mobile homes and camping accommodation.
