Brittany - a venue for the International?

2022-08-18 12:43:30

On a recent 2 month tandem tour we stayed at Camping Kerisole in the small town of Scaer, Brittany.  Andy and Nathalie, the new owners, extend a warm welcome to cyclists in French, German, Dutch and English.  Backpacking tent pitches, spacious tent/caravan/motorhome pitches with EHU, fixed tents, mobile homes and "Simple Mobile Homes" give a wide range of accommodation and there is a large covered area as well as a dining/bar area (menus in the above languages).

Situated on the Voie Vert Roscoff-Concarneau we found lots of interesting and varied rides during our stay both scenic and historic.

As Andy and Nathalie were ably hosting a large school camp during our stay we thought Kerisole would be an excellent venue for an International Rally?

Sounds great. We don't have a camper van and don't do real camping, so welcome rallies with fixed accommodation of any kind, and are sure that there are other members who would too.

Pippa, John  thanks for your post.  As you know the Club is looking for a site for an International Rally in May-June 2023. 

I have e-mailed Camping Kerisole to make enquiries.  There are other irons in the fire I know but as of today we don't have anything lined up.

Regards

Peter Weeks

8 years back the Tandem club came to the campsite at Gouarec and I provided routes and maps and generally helped organise it - (I run Breton Bikes by the way).

The snag was that though wonderful the campsite was very run down and we took it over the following year and it is transformed. We'd love to have you all back - have a look at www.campingdegouarec.com

Cheers
