In the southern part of Brittany you will find Camping Le Deffay, between the village of Sainte-Reine-de-Bretagne and the small town of Pontchâteau. The campsite is situated on the grounds of an 18th century castle in a green setting. In the old outbuildings of this castle you will find a snack bar and the campsite shop.

Camping between tall trees or by the fish pond

The spacious camping pitches are located between old tall trees and allow you to opt for a pitch with either lots of or somewhat less shade. The pitches around the small lake are sunnier and have a view of the water abounding with fish. In addition to camping pitches, campsite Le Deffay also has rental accommodation (mobile homes, chalets and bungalows). The accommodation units near the lake are generously spaced.

Covered or rather not?

There is a heated swimming pool with a toddler pool of which the roof is retractable, if so wished. There is a special chair to get into the pool for guests who require assistance to enter the water. Next to the swimming pool is a solarium where you can enjoy the sun in warm weather.

Pedal boating on the lake

There are opportunities on campsite Le Deffay to play volleyball, tennis and pétanque. There are trampolines and games for children. You can fish in the lake, but you may also choose to go pedal boating. Surrounding the lake is a fitness track, called: Body Boomer. Outside the campsite are pathways which are ideal for jogging.

"Beautiful and very quiet campsite, there is choice between marked pitches under the trees or a more sunny place around a small lake where one can enjoy free water cycling or fishing for carp or eel. Near the national park "de Briëre", wetland nature reserve with numerous bird species."

Travelling party: Family with children, 4 – 12 years

Liked - We had a fantastic stay at camping deffay, check in was supper easy with receptionists speaking perfect English self allocation pitched was also good as we had plenty of choice on this large site
Disliked - Was great to have staff all speak English and have English signage around the site assist non French speaking residents.

The (restaurant) was the biggest let Down of the campsite as it lacked any comfort and felt abit unloved

Menu was in French only (making it hard for non French speaking persons to see what was on offer)

We managed to order steak and chips for us adults and nuggets and chips for the children

When we received our child sized steak and chips we was informed there was no nuggets left for the children so we had to order them a pizza and wait for it again

Disliked - Showers, 1st no shower head, 2nd no lock on door, 3rd cold water. No food available restaurant, takeaway, food vans, and bar all closed. Very few on site so assume word has got round. Would not book again, very disappointing.

This is a beautiful quiet site. it\'s run by the Baron who is very helpful and friendly.the pool is across the road and is heated and. very warm. Sometimes in the evening he opens the bar. There is one restaurant withing walking distance open at lunchtime. For quiet country camping you couldnt wish for more.

Liked - Spacious pitches in a lovely location by the lake. Daily fresh bread delivered.
Disliked - The shower block was more than a little tired (broken toilet seats, broken lock on toilet door and poor decor) although fairly clean (not spotless). Although low season and virtually nobody else on site, these facilities we felt could be smarter.
