hi

we are going to england next week, via st. malo, we need some where to park up for the night.

does any one know of a camping site that is open at this time of the year, close to the docks, and also if you can park in a car park at the docks overnight?

thanks

Tricia,

There are a few places you will be able to park for the night that I know of.

One of them is right next to the port itself. As you arrive at the roundabout immediately before the port, instead of going in to the B.F Port itself, go to the left just before entering the BF area and there is parking there which faces across to Saint Servan. Plenty of spaces and it was full all through the summer. We had heard it was to be stopped but motorhomers seem to be still using it.

The other one is when you arrive at the same roundabout turn right immediately and you will see parking spaces all along the road side which leads to the woodmills on the inner port.

There is another place at the far end of Saint Malo and just past the Intra Muros and the Casino to the right, again facing the inner port area. and just along from the pay car parking.

I have seen people parked up overnight in the actual car park too.  The parking bays are longer if you go past the terminal and park in front of the hedge.

I would go either for the St. Servan one or go into the swimming baths car park and park at the end there, same view.  The St. Servan car park did have signs saying the flic would chuck you out when I walked through in August but it could have just been the time of year.

The swimming pool is the next turning on the roundabout then after about 20m, you will see the entrance.

For the very best entertainment, be sure to be stood on the side of the road next to the roundabout when the ferry docks in the morning.  You can have little bets as to how many times a certain car goes round the roundabout. . .  I love it!
