Overview
Holiday park in Saint Jean de Monts
This lively holiday park in the seaside resort of St Jean de Monts is very popular with our Irish guests. A relaxed drive from the northern Brittany Ferry ports, Le Bois Dormant offers a great family holiday, close to long sandy beaches. The pool complex at Le Bois Dormant includes a heated outdoor pool, racer slides and a heated paddling pool for younger kids. There are also free children's clubs and evening entertainment, a playground and sports pitches. Phew!
The park is only 2.5 km from the beach, with a shuttle bus taking guests during the summer months. Or, you can take to two wheels and follow the network of brilliant cycle paths through a pine forest to the nearby seaside resort of Saint Jean de Monts. Your kids will love the fairground-style big wheel which gives you brilliant views over this charming little town.
When you stay at Le Bois Dormant, you also get free access to all the amazing facilities at our neighbouring Siblu park, Le Bois Masson, which means extra pools, slides and sports!
