Anyone know of any cider producers in Brittany who allow motorhome stopovers? I know that it’s a popular category for France Passion, but it’s not really worth us getting the app for one stopover. Happy to have a tasting and buy some of their produce !

I stayed at le Lieu Cheri, near Lisieux (Normandy, I know) Link and spent a small fortune on Calvados, cider, pommeau, vinegar ….. and very nice it was too. Even had electric for €4.
I really like Norman and Breton cider.
I don't know of any sites actually on a ciderie but there are many close to them and most usually stock the local stuff.
If you google camping ciderie, it will throw up some sites.
When backpacking in Normandy and Brittany, I usually ask for a cidre traditionelle, served in a bolee and usually bring a bolee home.It keeps the cider cooler and goes with the Norman cider jug.
Google seems to suggest that Cidrerie Kerné has camping though I'd contact them to check. I can recommend their cider and if they don't offer stopovers there are certainly sites very close by.

I think it is actually camping le littoral which is nearby in Pouldreuzic that is the nearest camping.

Great, thanks for that, one for future planning!
