  • Family-friendly Axarquía site 10 minutes' drive from La Viñuela
  • A 30-minute drive from Torre del Mar beach and 45 mins from Málaga
  • Outdoor pool, kids' pool, and restaurant with lake views
Oh, those views… you could probably cope with gazing at them for a few hours/days/the rest of eternity, yes? Pick a pitch at Camping La Viñuela, in Andalusia’s Axarquía area, to sit and admire the outlook from the comfort of the restaurant terrace while friendly folk bring you a succession of drinks, snacks and grilled main meals. If you like to put names to things, those views are of the Embalse de la Viñuela lake and La Maroma, the region’s tallest mountain. If that peak has enticed you over for a closer peek, the mountains and caves of the Sierras de Tejeda, Almijara y Alhama Natural Park are around 35 minutes away by car. It’s a most peaceful rural spot, but it’s not that far from civilisation – supermarkets and other food shops are 10 minutes’ drive away in La Viñuela and the large El Ingenio mall is 15 minutes away for clothes shops, cinemas and a wide range of restaurants. Beachy days can be had 25 minutes away in Torre del Mar and historic wanders in gorgeous Granada, an hour and a half away. Roam all you wish, or not at all – a day spent on site can be easily spent splashing in the open-air pool and/or kids’ pool, having a kickabout at the small football field and sampling sweet treats from the ice cream shop that opens up in summer. Snack bits for a picnic lunch (think fresh bread and cured meats…) can be picked up at the site shop.

What customers say

This site offers stunning mountain and lake views with spacious, well-defined pitches. Guests praise the clean facilities, hot showers, and friendly, helpful staff. Direct gate access to the lake provides excellent walking opportunities for dogs and humans. The on-site restaurant receives positive mentions for its food and service. Some minor drawbacks include a need for improved road signage and occasional issues with Wi-Fi. While some reviews note the facilities are dated, the overall sentiment is of a peaceful, beautiful, and highly recommended location.

Electric optional earth pitch

Liked Prachtig uitzicht op het stuwmeer, ruime plaats, vriendelijke en behulpzame receptie, douches heerlijk warm maar dunne, doch harde straal. Terras van restaurant kan in hoogseizoen rumoerig zijn. Nu geen last, waren er in april

Disliked Licht in mannen sanitair werkte niet, ook niet na melding. Zeer basic, en sommige onderdelen ontbreken of zijn kapot

Electric optional earth pitch

Liked Lovely walk round lake

Disliked Very dated site , all amenities need updating and modernising. Pitches awful when wet . We ordered and paid for baguette which had ‘been collected’ when we went and it was obvious member of staff believed we had collected it and was reluctant to reimburse us until challenged. Lots of rubbish around where bins are. There is nothing else to do nearby and very remote

Local attractions

Want to keep things country for a while? Slope off to the Sierras de Tejeda, Almijara y Alhama Natural Park (35 minutes’ drive) for hikes and climbing, or the Nerja Caves (also 35 minutes) to see the stalactites and stalagmites that lurk below the surface (and work out which ones are which…) Wing it home via the Honey Museum of Malaga (20 minutes) to learn about the local sweet stuff. Up for some sea air? Take the 25-minute drive to Torre del Mar for beaches, a waterpark or a round of golf with a sea view, or make it to Málaga (45 minutes) to hike around the hilltop Arab Alcazaba and take in the Picasso museum or fashion museum before hitting the sands. There’s another Alcazaba fort in Vélez-Málaga (20 minutes), along with a contemporary art museum, and the famed Moorish Alhambra is an hour and a half away in Granada – do your best to get up early if you’re headed here, so you’ll have time to stroll around the Albaicín Arab quarter, taking in tea and tagines along the way.
