In the blink of an eye

1. Rural charm in the Côtes d’Armor

La Maison des Lamour

Woods, a river, large meadows, a vegetable garden and even Shetland ponies! Just what your children need to stretch their legs! And if they still want more, there’s also a Parcabout® tree net course with over 1,500 m² of nets suspended between the trees. This Vallée des Lamour, between Saint-Brieuc and Guingamp, just 10 minutes from Binic beaches, is also a paradise for adults. Settle in, for at least a week, in a charming cottage with shabby-chic décor, or for a shorter stay, in a family guest house (children and parents in separate rooms). Are you hungry? Enjoy a galette or the traditional Breton stew, cooked in a large pot, the two specialities of Char à Bancs guest house.

Auberge des Voyajoueurs

Do you love playing board games, strategy games or games of skill as a family? Then you’ll love Auberge des Voyajoueurs!

Are you unsure? Ask the team of specialised hosts for advice on any rules or new games. From your room or your hotel apartment, appreciate the view of the surrounding nature.

3. Seeking lost treasure in the Blavet valley

Vallée de Pratmeur – Quistinic

Get away to Quistinic, 18 miles north of Lorient, amidst rolling green countryside. You’ll be greeted by donkeys and ponies, which your children won’t be able to resist! Vallée du Pratmeur is a paradise for animals: alpacas, chickens, rabbits, etc. Drop your luggage in one of the family tree houses, perfect with 2 or 3 children. The houses are accessed via a bridge or a spiral staircase, which is an adventure in itself! From your nest, you overlook the 25 hectares of the domain. Explore it in detail on a treasure hunt. Other activities include a trampoline in the trees and disco golf. Are heights not your thing? Then opt for the gypsy van. Perhaps you might even catch a glimpse of the elves and korrigans who come close on certain evenings…

6. Nature games and sculpture cabins in Quiberon bay

La Belle Folie

Accommodation options include a Superpausée tent (two tents on top of each other), a Tissée or Cactus house. A magical experience for parents and children, in Quiberon bay. The sculpture cabins at “La Belle Folie” are eco-designed and situated in the middle of a forest, which is a wonderful playground for children! Book one of the forest school workshops organised by Soline (*). Her motto: raise awareness of respect for nature through wonderment. It’s a great programme! Hide-and-seek, den or teepee-building, making bows and musical instruments with materials found in nature, etc. Your children will even be allowed to climb trees (safely, of course). And what about you? Chill out in the greenhouse, relax in the hot tub… enjoy!
