Does anyone know of good campsites close to the town of St Malo? Thanks!

What is the E-mail address of the store posted for souvenirs in
St. Malo. i made a puchase there previously and would like to purchase a
small granite home that looks traditional to brittany

I am traveling to St. Malo by train, then 4 hours later taking the ferry to Jersey. I would like to explore St. Malo during that time and the ferry office does not store luggage for its passengers due to security measures. Does anyone know where I can stow luggage for a few hours. I am told the SNCF station does not offer a "consigne" but am not sure if that is accurate.

Hello. I will be arriving in St-Malo at 13:00 on Sunday, February 26th. I need to be in Rouen Monday night, February 27th, no later than 21:00.

I do not have a car (travelling via train) and it appears that trains are infrequent and Les Courriers Bretons, who have bus shuttles from St-Malo to Pontorson and Mont St-Michel, only run one trip a day.

Can anyone help me figure out my transportation options?

I appreciate any help you can offer. Thank you.

Hi Everyone,

Hope this question does not sound TOO strange. I went to ST. MALO in 1988 and LOVED the atmosphere: the walls of the town, being close to the sea, the air, the light...

I was wondering if there is any town in the northern part of Normandy which might have a similar atmosphere!!

The reason I ask is because we are driving from PARIS to ETRETAT in June, and will not have enough time to return to ST. MALO (unfortunately). So instead, I thought I might inquire if there is any similar town to St. Malo, but closer to ETRETAT or HONFLEUR.

Merci/Thank you for your time in responding!

P.S. If you have any questions about New York City, I can help you. CHEERS!!

I only have one day to visit St. Malo and then head off for a morning at Mont Saint Michel (I heard a person can see Mont St. Michel in half a day).

Has anyone ever stayed at a hotel fronting the train station in St. Malo (rather than staying in INTRAMUROS)?

I figured it would be more convenient since the bus to Mont St. Michel can be taken from the train station.

BUT! In my experience, many areas where the train station is located isn't as safe.

Is this true for St. Malo? I hope not since this isn't a big city.

Any advice?

If you had any experience with taking the train to St. Malo, did you have to take a taxi from the Train Station to St. Malo? Was it too inconvenient traveling in and out the city walls when you had to get to other places like Mont St. Michel?

Thanks in advance for the tips!

How many hours drive is it from St Malo to Tours in the Loire Valley. We are hoping to combine a holiday, one week in Brittany and one week in Loire Valley. Is this feasible, we will be towing a caravan.
