RCN Port l’Epine

Alan Rogers Review of RCN Port l’Epine

Port l’Epine is a very pretty site in a unique situation on a promontory with direct access to the sea, and with superb views across the bay to Perros Guirec.  This site is set in the perfect location if you enjoy being very close to the beautiful Brittany coastline, You have direct access to the coastal paths and the beach. The site itself is immaculate in all areas and was voted one of the top 50 most beautiful camp sites in France. Pitches are on average are large 100 square meters so you have plenty of space and they are divided by established hedging. The site is owned by the Dutch Group RCN and managed very efficiently by Sara Brunet and her team, nothing seemed to be too much trouble. Upon your arrival you will be greeted in English at reception. There is a one-way system in operation throughout the site with a separate entrance and exit.  Some pitches are not on level ground so levelling may be required. 

On the north side of the promontory is a little port facing an archipelago of seven small islands. It is a charming spot – you can sail or swim from both sides. The site’s own beach has rock pools, a jetty and a slipway for small boats or fishing. As an added attraction, the site has its own small heated pool,  a kids club and a bar and restaurant with a terrace. For groceries, you will find local amenities just 1km away from the campsite.  This site is ideal for families with young children, though not necessarily for teenagers looking for lots to do! The area is ideal for walking and cycling, and from Perros-Guirec you can take boat trips out to the islands.
