The Camper’s take
Updated June 2026
Large, free asphalt car park next to Kergonan Benedictine abbey (Plouharnel). Spacious, mostly level ground, very peaceful at night despite morning bells (from 5 am, normal for a monastery). Open access, clean. Forest hiking nearby, shops 700m away. Abbey visit and monastic shop available. Ideal peaceful stopover before Quiberon/Carnac.
Highlights
- Very quiet at night, spacious and clean area
- Free and easily accessible parking
- Close to the abbey, monastic shop, and forest hiking
- Friendly welcome, rarely crowded
Good to know
- Bells start ringing at 5 AM (regular early noise)
- Occasional earthworks causing disruptions
- No services (water, electricity, public toilets)
- Uneven slope in places, significant tilt in some areas
Motorhome access : Excellent: large asphalted parking lot, mostly flat with slight slopes in places, wide and clear access, easy maneuvering. Note: slopes vary by section, some areas have a slight camber.
