In August 2026, numerous motorhome travelers are stopping at the motorhome area in Ploërmel (Morbihan). Among them are two couples from Lyon who initially planned to visit Crozon and Douarnenez but chose Ploërmel due to overcrowding. One traveler heading to Concarneau noted it was his third trip to Brittany but his first stop in Ploërmel.
