Liked Large pitch with sun and shade. Excellent shower block. Washing machine 5 euros and 1 euro dryer. Excellent, well organised on site restaurant/bar. Particularly recommend the lamb and house red wine. The best of all was the large swimming pool with magnificent views of the mountains. Did two walks from the site. One was an hour loop and the other took nearly 4 hours including stops to see Los Llanos, Mogrovego, Redo and Camaleno.

Amazing, highly recommended!
Electric optional grass pitch
Liked It was absolutely great!! The staff was very friendly and always happy to help. The restaurant on site was so welcoming and social. The bathrooms were clean and shiny. I was solo on a motorbike with a tent, and they got me a spot that was serene and quiet with the choice to choose where exactly i would prefer.
The views were beautiful and serene, of mountains on both sides. There’s a village nearby with everything you need (that they might not have on the onsite store). I have been to other campsites and this one has been the best!
The wifi was great!
I would highly recommend this site, and in fact plan to visit again.
