As Reception does not open until 3.30 pm after lunch I feel this should be mentioned in the book.

The owners have 3 goats which are allowed to roam the site. Their droppings are on the pitches and the pull down and eat branches of the bushes, which can be adjacent to caravans.

There is an excellent library to borrow books.

Owners were very helpful.

We have been staying at this excellent site for the last ten days, enjoying some very warm sunshine, and the odd bout of rain. We are travelling with a touring caravan. Just up the road is the fabulous Isle de Brehat, reached by a ten minute ferry ride, and featuring a north and south island completely free of cars, and with a resident population of about 400. Here there are lighthouses to visit, as well as chapels and other places of interest, together with plenty of catering of all sorts, which is relaxed and with very fair prices. Ideal to visit at this time of year, I imagine it might get a bit more crowded in August. On the campsite itself, Le Neptune at Lanloup, we have been made very welcome. The husband and wife team can welcome you in English (we use French ourselves) and on arrival you are given a computer slide show of some of the local attractions of the area. Bread is available in reception, and the Boulanger is there every day (except Monday) with fresh supplies. There are supermarkets within easy reach as well. The site has a bar, which also serves a variety of light meals such as Pizzas. And there is a very nice heated swimming pool, which most of the time you may have to yourself at this time of year. Wi fi is free for an hour each day, or 9 euros for the week. The site is very calm, and there is a very good choice of pitches, from smaller to larger, and well spaced with hedges surrounding each pitch, which are open at the front for access. Taps are conveniently placed around the site, and there is a good and well-maintained shower and toilet block. There is plenty to explore up and down the coast, and we chose this site in preference to those perched on or next to cliffs or the sea, as it is a bit inland – although the local port is just a five minute drive, and you can walk to it in 30 minutes or so. The best thing though has been the helpful owners. Our car needed some repairs while we were here, and I also needed a dentist! (almost impossible in France). The site owner made many telephone calls on our behalf, and arranged a taxi for us to collect a hire car, spoke with the repair garage for us, and also found us a dentist that was free to help us that day! I had called three different dentists myself, and was gradually losing the will to live, as it was generally impossible to get much more than an answerphone message. The one dentist I spoke to just said ‘Non, it is not possible to see you within a week’. This is a great area, and a lovely campsite, made even more so by the owners, who went above and beyond the call of duty, and who also have a great sense of humour. I also bumped into a French guitarist on site, and had a few hours being taught how to play Gypsy Jazz! Brilliant!
