Brittany

A region rooted in myth and legend it offers walled cities, half-timbered houses, quaint fishing villages, busy ports, pretty estuary towns, castles and châteaux, defensive forts, even menhirs and megaliths from Neolithic times. Fertile farmland offers up the fruits and vegetables for which Brittany is famous, from pink onions to the apples that make delicious cider and apple brandy. Order a fresh seafood platter for a sumptuous display of the fruits of the sea. 

La Vendée

Just south of Brittany, on the French Atlantic coast, the Vendée has 140km of fine white sandy beaches. Famed for its sunshine and luminous light, it is known locally as La Côte de la Lumière. Activities here include sandsurfing, sailing and water sports, cycling, horse riding, golf and revitalising thalassotherapy treatments. 

Loire Valley

The great River Loire and its tributaries wind through spectacular countryside, where vineyards hug hills and line valleys, picture book villages perch along riverbanks and medieval cities reveal their glories. Legendary châteaux, seemingly straight out of fairytales, make the Loire Valley France’s ‘Valley of the Kings’. 

Camping at Siblu Villages

We make a ten-day tour in France staying at three Siblu Villages in Brittany, the Vendee and the Loire Valley.
