We were lucky enough to do a cycle camping holiday for a week in August 2020. Geoff and Kate were lovely, they prepared us a fantastic route with great directions and recommendations. The even organised our taxi to collect us and take us back to St Brieuc. The equipment they provided was really top notch, lightweight camping stuff, properly waterproof and comfortable. The bikes were in great condition and well maintained, we had no problems after covering about 130miles in a week. And Brittany is wonderfully varied, from deep woodland to rolling fields, vast beaches and sunny cliff tops. And the patisseries are wonderful. We will definitely be back!…

Thanks to Geoff and family for a great holiday. We had a week's cycling fantastically organised by them. Nice and gentle cycling so as not to put novices off; and, fantastic places to stay that one wouldn't fin oneself. We cannot recommend Breton Bikes highly enough; a great, active, interesting holiday. Guy, Michele and Marianne…

It was lovely to have you - central Brittany is a bit of an undiscovered paradise, glad you fell in love with it as we have;-)

We are just back from a week long cycling trip with our 3 children. We enjoyed every minute of it. Bikes and routes were great and v safe. While the campsite is simple and relatively basic in terms of facilities - it contains everything you absolutely need and we particularly enjoyed the open green where kids all played together and the communal eating spaces where you could meet others. V friendly atmosphere on site - no doubt attributed to Kate and Geoffs positive and helpful demeanor!…

Lovely thanks - oyu're quite right it's not something people realise, but having the campsite on an open field means that your kids can be seen, and kept safe by lots of people - works really well. The campsite is just the basics because everything else (bars, restaurants, shops) are all within 500m (for that reason we're not allowed to do more) but the campsite does have two camp kitchens with covered areas and tables and chairs free for all to use, a little library and a monster sand-pit for kids - so everything a cyclecamper REALLY needs;-)

Recently returned from a weeks cycling with BB doing the Morlaix route. Great routes and pretty good bikes (better waterproof linings for the panniers and cover for the directions as we got v wet one day are a few improvements we’d suggest). Fabulous, individual/ quirky/ traditional/ locations every night and some stunning scenery along a great route. Kate and Geoff’s customer service (when helping with unforeseen dental disasters!) was second to none and very much appreciated - thanks for a great week! …

We have just returned from our 4th Breton Bikes holiday. Previously we have camped but this time we chose the Binic and Back chambre d'hotes (B and B) route. Each night we we were treated to some fantastic, unique and typically French accomodation ranging from a farmhouse where the food we eat was straight from the garden to a lovely modern hotel in Binic. We won't spoil the surprise that awaits in the other locations but safe to say you will be very impressed. During the week my wife had a problem with her bike but following a phone call to Geoff, he came out within the hour to replace it - what service!!! Binic is a lovely French seaside resort with great beaches and lovely coastal footpaths. If you are in any doubt about booking a Breton Bikes holiday then just do it, it will be a holiday that you will remember for many years to come. Thank you Geoff and Kate.…
