About
The pioneer cabins at the Camping d’Aleth aim for immersion rather than luxury. Set among hundred-year-old spruces in Saint-Malo-de-Beignon, they recreate a Wild West atmosphere in the heart of Brocéliande. There are two main styles. The Sioux cabin sleeps two in a 160 cm double bed, while the Apache cabin sleeps up to four in two 140 x 190 cm double beds. Each cabin has a terrace of about 10 m², outdoor furniture and what you need for breakfast. There is no kitchen area in the pioneer cabins, which clearly sets them apart from the campsite’s trapper cabins. Guests do enjoy the Camping d’Aleth’s services: Wi-Fi, children’s games, a bar, food in season, bike hire, walking trails and the pond right nearby. In 2026, prices ranged from €33 to €95 per night depending on the option and period, and the cabins were open from 30 April to 15 September. It is a particularly good option for a couple or a small family looking for an affordable unusual experience, in a site very well placed for exploring Paimpont, the Val sans Retour and the great sites of Brocéliande.
