Les Ormes Domaine et Resort

Wonderful resort. Very centre park-esque with loads to do. Staff are lovely, there's a well stocked shop on the main street that's open all day. Indoor pool is phenomenal which kept us out of the heatwave. Chalets were comfortable, place is well kept throughout. I've never seen stars as clear in the sky as here. Saint malo is a nice town 30min drive away, also aquarium is a good half day out. Cobac park is about 20mins away, plenty of attractions here and worth the 18e entry fee, and there is zoo is about 25mins away that has an amazing bird show. We were there before peak season so the night time activities hadn't started yet but there was plenty to keep kids entertained. Will def look to come back.

This holiday park is in a great location for exploring Brittany, but let's itself down in many ways. The negatives are: very late check in (5pm) and this appears to be enforced, no facilities open before 10am... Pool is closed till then, no breakfast cafe etc. Very loud events that disrupt sleep on a Tuesday night. Pedestrian zones have many hazards, like escooters wizzing at 30mph, not great with young kids. No recycling bins provided in rooms, yet requirement to separate out every item, literally hours of the trip spent recycling. Limited on site food options. The positives are generally good activities and location and general setting is great.

It's a big site with a variety of accommodation. We stayed in a Tao cabin which was OK but the bedrooms were very small and, if there had been a family of 4 in it, clothes storage could have been a problem. I was surprised to find that we were expected to clean the cabin when we left. There are no instructions for the microwave and the TV doesn't have any English language channels (although, to be honest, that's not surprising because the majority of people when we were there were French). There's a wide range of onsite activities but I have reservations about some of them. There are several aerial activities - climbing up nets, onto platforms, sliding down zip lines, some of them very long and there's no doubt that they were enjoyed. However, there was no supervision. Every person on the activity had a safety line but I have no idea what would have happened if somebody had fallen and was hanging from the safety line or reached a point and realised that they couldn't continue to the end of the course. On the archery, nobody was given any protective equipment (arm guard, finger tab etc) until it was clear that they needed it. I didn't realise that the nerves in my middle finger were being damaged until after the activity finished. It's now 3 days since the activity and my finger has still not recovered. I didn't realise either, that there were extra charges for all the activities apart from the Dome which is great although, again, there is no supervision on the waterslides. In summary, I'd recommend this as a family destination with some reservations.
