So peaceful and kept beautifully. Staff friendly and helpful. Amazing cycle tracks and only 5 klms cycle to the centre of Rennes.
Wow.
Unfortunately, we were only stopping here on our way to the ferry home so just had a couple hours for a picnic with our young kids. As a result I can’t only really speak of the play park and the general feel for the place.
It feels wonderful.
The playpark is great (with a 5 and a 3 year old - plenty to do and plenty that they couldn’t quite do yet so good for older kids too) - very popular with the young ones.
The playpark is right next to the BBQ area which was, on a random Friday afternoon, rather popular with locals having actual BBQs with some wine. Hard to imagine this happening in such a civilised way in the UK.
Nearby there’s a restaurant / bar that was clearly getting set up for a busy night - I bet it’s great.
And this is such a small portion of the park! I’m very envious and wished we could have spent longer there. There are many trails that could’ve been explored.

Bad experience in Rennes, got robbed and spent the afternoon in the police station giving statements, after a blue light trip in a police car through Rennes. Police were brilliant though and caught the perpetrator, who was taken to court and convicted in 2 days! Campsite gave us a full refund as we didn't want to stay there after what happened. Site did look nice though!
Nice, but the trail to the castle/chateau/mansion isn't actually "open" there are signs that try to warn you that it isn't maintained.
The park itself is really nice if you stay away from the sewage treatment plant... and offers a really nice view of the viaduct. The park has a lot of beautiful trees.

Beautiful place and lots to do. There's a lake to walk around and also have lunch in the waterside bar and restaurant. There is also a tree climbing adventure park right next door, it could even be in the same park. The camping and motorhome pitches are spacious and clean and well stocked with everything you need. When we arrived the person at reception was very friendly and spoke English which was great. We will definitely be visiting here again and hopefully stopping longer.
It is a breath taking experience. You choose, To go for run solo, to bike with a group of friends, to take your dog to play with it's dog friends, to seat for a drink and watch the ducks swimming, to walk with your beloved ones and see the sunset, to practice archery, gardening, simply enjoying to take a breath of clean air, amaze with all different animal and plant species that call the park home. The people of Cesson and Rennes are very lucky to have this therapeutic spot.
What a beautiful place lovely walks and a couple of lakes with trees for shade. There is a cafe reasturant and toilets. Nice big mostly shaded car park great when it's hot. I would definitely recommend it.
Very very good campsite excellent facilities in immaculate condition. Pitches large and spaced out in a lovely woodland setting with walks and activities all close by within walking distance. Cafe bar located within the park nice to walk to and enjoy a beer after driving. Offers pitches at the start of the campsite at 11euro without power etc and will definitely will make use of for a one night stop over if traveling south.Cycled into Rennes via the cycle path about 5km of a flat cycle and is sign posted all the way in option to order breakfast very handy too.Staff very professional and friendly keep up the great work guys.
