I've stayed here - lots of different ciders and beers. Showers are basic, small quiet site pretty close to StMalo down the Rance.

For the most cycle friendly campsite in Brittany go here
http://www.bretonbikes.com/brittany/gou ... eccampsite
and
http://www.campingdegouarec.com/

Heavily biased of course but if you find different you can complain on here;-)

Also feel free to PM for any advice on cycling in Brittany.
38 years of cycletouring, 33 years of running cycling holidays, 8 years of running a campsite for cyclists - there's a pattern here...

Not many! There are loads. Depends what you want. For basic simplicity and quiet I like to use the municipal at St Guinoux http://www.saint-malo-tourisme.co.uk/st ... st-guinoux as my last stop before leaving France from St Malo.


For all types of campsite in France there is an annual publication listing 9000+ sites. Available here https://www.vicarious-shop.com/collecti ... rance-2018 and possibly cheaper on Amazon. The map in the book shows around 15 campsites very close to the Rance itself.

Download Archies camping either as an app or POI on a Garmin. It has the majority of camp sites on it, municipal or private.
