Parc Highlights

  • St Cast is very close to a soft, sandy beach

  • The parc is also handy for the lovely old port

  • Great coastal cycling and walks to discover nearby

It offers a very natural location, with plenty of wide grassy pitches, and there are many great walks in the area.

Château de Galinée is a quiet, family-run ‘Castels’ parc offering a relaxed atmosphere, modern, well maintained facilities and above all a lovely air of spaciousness, with wide grassy pitches. As well as the play area, there are simply acres of space for the children to let off steam and an attractive, modern pool complex with superb water slides. Entertainment takes place during July and August in the bar and restaurant, which overlooks the superb indoor pool.
