Then, as the lanterns light up, the cooks orchestrate themed meals twice a week in high season. You're in for a treat!
Sports activities
How about getting the most out of your getaway to the Côte d'Amour?

You can also rent a bike directly at the campsite if you feel like going for a ride. It’s all in your hands!
Mini farm
As you round a bend on the woodland path, you come across a herd of goats grazing peacefully. A little further on, sheep are bleating; it seems they want you to stroke them. To the wide-eyed wonder of the younger children and delight of the older ones, the animals of the mini farm go frolicking around their 3,000m² park at the entrance of the campsite. Arm yourself with patience to approach them, getting up close and personal as you watch them feeding.

Explore the Atlantic wilderness
Feel like spending time in nature? You’ve come to the right place. The elements take centre stage on the West Coast. First and foremost, the ocean, in which you can have a go at fishing or whatever water sport you fancy. Then comes the Brière Regional Natural Park, criss-crossed by many trails, spreading from further inland to the estuary. Last but not least, there's the air, full of sea birds. Pointe de Merquel is a favourite among birdwatchers, the perfect spot to practice your budding ornithological skills.
Give in to the charms of the Guérande
Guérande is only 10 km from the Sunêlia Le Petit Bois campsite, and you'll most likely go there to see the salt marshes. And you'd be right to do so! But did you know that Guérande is a medieval town, awarded the label Ville d’Art et d'Histoire (City of Art and History).
