Village de Yourtes

Imagine waking up to the soft rustle of trees, breathing pure Breton country air, and discovering an authentic Mongolian yurt as your accommodation — that’s exactly the promise of Camping Dinard | Village de Yourtes. Nestled in a peaceful wooded park of about one hectare at the edge of the forest in Plessix‑Balisson, this unique destination blends nature, comfort, and tradition just a short drive from Brittany’s Emerald Coast.

Here you won’t find ordinary canvas tents — the site is built around roughly twenty heated yurts, each with a striking central stained‑glass dome, perfect for stargazing at night. Inside, the yurts are spacious and cozy, accommodating couples, families, or groups of up to six guests with a comfortable double bed and additional single beds depending on size.

Each yurt combines rustic charm with practical amenities: cooktops, refrigerators, and dining spaces allow you to prepare meals in harmony with nature. It’s an accommodation style that feels like glamping — but with authentic eco‑responsibility.

While this is not a luxury resort, the facilities are simple and thoughtfully placed. The sanitary block with showers and toilets is close by on the grounds, and shared spaces like picnic tables and outdoor barbecue spots encourage relaxed evenings outdoors. Free Wi‑Fi, bread delivery on request, and a children’s playground add convenience without overwhelming the serene environment.

Whether you’re seeking a romantic weekend, an unusual family break, or a digital detox surrounded by nature, the Village de Yourtes offers an inviting blend of comfort, originality, and peace.

The location of the Village de Yourtes is one of its strongest selling points. Set in the heart of Côtes d’Armor, it’s just around 5–10 minutes’ drive from sandy beaches and coastal towns. Saint‑Jacut‑de‑la‑Mer and other seaside spots like Lancieux or Saint‑Briac invite you to unwind on the shore, enjoy water sports, or stroll charming seaside promenades.

History lovers will be thrilled that Dinan’s medieval centre is less than 10 minutes by car. Wander through cobbled streets, explore craft shops, or sip a cider on a terrace overlooking the scenic port.

The historic walled city of Saint‑Malo is about 20–30 minutes away, perfect for a day trip full of culture, cuisine, and spectacular coastal views. Its ramparts, beaches, and seafood restaurants make for unforgettable evenings.

Cap Fréhel, Fort La Latte, and the iconic Mont Saint‑Michel are easily reachable by car for full‑day excursions — so guests who want variety will never be stuck for options. From sea kayaking and surf beaches to forest hikes and local artisan villages, this region is packed with experiences for all ages.

Transport & Access: A car is recommended to truly enjoy your stay. The campsite isn’t served by frequent public transport, and many of the best beaches and attractions are easiest to reach by car. The nearest major train station is in Dinan, around 10 minutes away — ideal if arriving by rail before picking up a rental.

Facilities & Practicalities: ✔ Yurts don’t include private bathrooms — showers and toilets are in a shared block nearby. ✔ Bedding and towels may not be included, so check before arrival. ✔ Pets are generally welcome on request. ✔ The site is wheelchair accessible with adapted sanitary facilities. ✔ Free Wi‑Fi, basic grocery shops, bread service, and picnic hampers make self‑catering easy — but plan ahead if you want gourmet meals out.

Atmosphere & Tips: This is a calm, rustic getaway ideal for nature lovers. If you’re expecting resort‑style entertainment or pools, this experience is different — it’s about peace, slow travel, and place‑based adventure. Booking early is wise, especially in summer months, as the yurts are limited and highly rated.
