Family friendly

Brittany is the place par excellence for a family holiday! It’s the place for seaside holidays, pancakes with salted butter, vitality, cycle or boat trips, rock-pool fishing… It’s where magical childhood memories are formed that you’ll never forget. No matter what your age, it’s a fabulous playground where almost everything is possible!

Ready! Steady…!

Breathe in all the sea air you can, visit every place of interest, let your hair down or just laze around… Just do whatever you feel like doing and enjoy recharging your batteries, all together, joining in the fun.
