from 246 reviews Write review

In the heart of the Vendée, with more than 250 kilometres of coastline and many beautiful beaches, you will find Camping Le Cabestan. In the middle of a beautiful cycling area, this is a wonderful place for an active or just a relaxing holiday. On the campsite you will find a fairly large swimming pool with sliding roof and nice sunbeds. The neighbouring village of Brétignolles-sur-Mer has charming boutiques and a weekly market with local specialities.

Spacious and quiet

On the site there is a relaxed and quiet atmosphere. A separate part of the campsite has been set up with spacious, sunny pitches with a grass surface. The sanitary facilities are adequate; somewhat basic, but clean. In the colder months, the sanitary facilities are heated. If you walk to the other part of the campsite, you'll find the streets lined with at least ten different types of mobile homes. Varying in luxury, space and the size of the veranda.

To the pool or the sea?

The great advantage of Camping Le Cabestan is its many swimming opportunities. Swim a few lengths in the pool in the morning and take a dip in the Atlantic Ocean in the afternoon. If you want to enjoy a moment to yourself, you can relax on one of the sun beds around the pool. You can end the afternoon with a refreshing drink or an ice cream at the bar. There you will also find a small patio.

Crafts and outdoor enjoyment

Spending a day at the campsite? Children have fun at the crafts club and the playground with trampoline and swings is also very popular. The jeu-de-boules court is a meeting place for young and old. Thematic evenings and karaoke are also organised regularly.

Travelling party: Young couple

Liked - Nice walk to the sea and few shops and cafes. Longer walk into town for more choice.
Lovely big swimming pool which was very warm and good choice of sun loungers both in and outside.
Disliked - No bread on the site (we knew this on booking).
