Castel Camping Domaine des Ormes

Alan Rogers Review

This impressive site in the grounds of the Château des Ormes is in the northeast part of Brittany, in an estate of wooded parkland and lakes. With a large range of facilities and a wide range of accommodation as treehouses, floating cabins, wooden chalets, etc. Of the 696 pitches, 136 are for tourers (most with 6A electricity, some with 16A and their own water and waste water). They are of varying sizes (80-150 sq.m) and there is a choice of terrain – flat or gently sloping, wooded, walled or open. The rest are occupied by tour operators (560) and by mobile homes (120 to rent). There is soundproof nightclub on site. Fresh bread available on site. Bikes on rent. Great site for teenagers with climbing tower, tree top adventure park, zip wire, cricketfield and cable waterski. In the summer of 2019 a large dome is installed to cover the existing aquatic parc, wave swimming pool.

A marvellous aqua park with a variety of pools, toboggans, waterfalls and jacuzzis, is set just above the small lake (with pedaloes and canoes for hire). A pleasant bar and terrace overlook the pools and a grass sunbathing area surrounds them. A particular feature is the 18-hole golf course, with a practice range, a beginners’ five-hole course, lessons and a restaurant with terrace. A hotel with a pool is also part of the complex. The equestrian centre offers a variety of riding options. A popular site with British visitors, and with so many pitches occupied by tour opabinerators it is very busy in high season.
