LOCATIONS
What are the arrival and departure times?
Pitches are available from 1pm on the day of arrival and must be vacated by 12pm on the day of departure. If you have booked in advance, you can arrive up to around 9:50 pm. The vehicle gate closes automatically at 10 pm. Please note that this is only possible for customers who have made a reservation and notified reception of their late arrival, in order to receive practical arrangements for their arrival.
Can we choose a location or a sector?
When booking in advance, it is possible to request a specific area or location in the comment area. If we are unable to meet your request, we will endeavour, subject to availability, to offer you an equivalent alternative. Under no circumstances will these requests be subject to a price reduction if they cannot be met.
Can I reserve a Stop&Go pitch?
Stop&Go are parking spaces with electricity (no water or drainage) reserved exclusively for motorhomes and vans. They are not accessible to tents or caravans, and cannot be booked in advance.
Can I rent a refrigerator on site?
Yes, it is possible to rent a refrigerator on site for a minimum stay of 4 nights. If you would like to reserve one, please indicate this in the comments to your booking or contact us at info@camping-lacdorient.com. We will then be able to confirm whether we have any in stock for the requested dates.

All pitches are equipped with 10A electricity. Our bollards comply with European standards. To connect, you’ll need a European male connector. If you forget, you can buy them at the small mini-market on the campsite.
