The site turned out to be an absolute gem.   We arrived on the 26th September towards the end of our holiday and stayed for a week. Below are a few more facts and a little story of the most interesting event of our trip.

The site is run by Mireille, her English husband Tim, and her mother Annette.Mireille met Tim whilst working on the Isle of Wight and speaks perfect English.Tim spends most of his time working on the surrounding farm.As we booked in Mireille gave me a number of tourist maps of the area and spent some time showing us where the best walks, cycle rides and tourist attractions were to be found.  They are the most charming people and gave us the warmest welcome we have ever received at a campsite.  There are plenty of toilets and showers and they are kept very clean.  There is no bar or club.  The rocky beach is only about 800 metres away by footpath, down which we used to ride our bikes.  I am not sure about its safety for swimming as the sea was always rough whilst we were there and I saw nobody in the water. If you look on the map you will see that Lann Hoedic is on the Presqu’ile de Rhuys with the Atlantic on one side and the Golfe de Morbihan on the other.  A really delightful area  and all the details and links are on their website.  

It rained most days but I was able to get on with one of my ‘hobbies’ which is gathering  shellfish from the shore at low tide. The tide table which is essential for this was supplied by Mireille, who was surprised to find an Englishman who ate shellfish let alone collect them himself.  There are not many of us I know but we have met others..


I usually go for mussels but the rocks at Lann Hoedic were covered in oysters and it was very easy to get a couple of dozen for a meal.  I did not want too many so on my last expedition I concentrated on finding large specimens. I collected 14 about the size of my hand, but that evening they were too much even for a glutton like me, so I only opened and ate 7, saving the others till the following day.The largest was kept till last and in that one I found 4 pearls. In fact I felt them in my mouth and almost swallowed them. One is tiny, about 1 mm., but the others about 3 to 4 mm. in diameter.I dropped one in the grass beside the table and lost it so I now have just two nice little pearls.Mireille was impressed and took photos to display in her guest book as she had never heard of anybody finding pearls in the local oysters.  We are now known as Les Pecheurs de Perle de Lann Hoedic.
