A 7 hectare haven of peace in the Côtes d’Armor
The La Hallerais campsite occupies a wooded, lush 7-hectare campsite running alongside the Rance, a river whose waters flow into the English Channel a few dozen kilometres from here, between Saint Malo and Dinard.

Dinan and the Rance Valley
By staying on the La Hallerais campsite, you can visit one of the quaintest medieval towns in Brittany: Dinan. Protected by impressive ramparts overlooking the Rance river, this town is home to a multitude of houses, with either half-timbered or granite facades. Equally, you’ll find the heart of the famed knight Bertrand Du Guesclin here. Renowned during the Hundred Years’ War, he liberated in turn Normandy then Brittany from British oppression! A closely guarded relic, which you’ll be able to admire by entering the Saint-Sauveur basilica in Dinan.
Dinan’s harbour, located below the fortified town, also houses along the quays former residences and even an attractive 16th century manor house. From here you can go along the Rance estuary, by taking the former towpath up to the campsite, then as far as the river mouth. Along the water, watch migratory birds, discover chapels, tidal windmills, naval shipyards and many other landmarks narrating the region’s rich history, such as the Fort de Saint Père fortress and Tour Solidor fortified keep.
Lastly stop in Saint Malo to explore this famous city of privateers with a ring of ramparts, all of which provide truly spectacular sea views. In the heart of the walled city, the narrow alleyways reveal architectural treasures such as Saint Vincent cathedral and Saint-Malo castle. The surrounding beaches, such as the Plage du Sillon, invite you for relaxation and contemplation, whilst the fortifications, examples being the Fort National or Cité d'Aleth, evoke the city’s rich military past. Saint-Malo is also a gourmet getaway, where the flavours of the sea blend exquisitely in the dishes of local
