  • Family camping in the Parque Natural de Las Batuecas-Sierra de Francia
  • Sotoserrano five minutes’ drive and the Meandro del Melero 20 minutes
  • Beach on the Alagón River, a chiringuito bar and a small supermarket
Really, really want to escape the rat race? Then it’s time to get away to Camping Vega de Francia, where you can get thoroughly relaxed at 420 metres above sea level, on the outskirts of gorgeous, medieval Sotoserrano in the Parque Natural de Las Batuecas-Sierra de Francia. And good things just keep on coming at this campsite. It’s surrounded by a spectacular landscape of mountains, forested valleys and rivers – gateway to walking and cycling adventures, fishing and kayaking – and the long-distance Camino de La Vega hiking route runs right past the perimeter. Pitches are set under the sleepy shade of trees, and family facilities include showers, washing machines and a dryer (the latter for a small extra charge). Kids can occupy themselves happily in the games room with pool and table football (and a TV for lazy afternoons), out in the play area or splashing around on Playa de Sotoserrano river beach a short walk away. There’s a laidback chiringuito bar with an alfresco terrace overlooking the Alagón River, and a well-stocked supermarket selling local specialities (and wines for adults keen to get even more chilled).

What customers say

This well-maintained campsite is praised for its tranquil, off-the-beaten-track location by a river with a beach, ideal for swimming and wildlife spotting. Reviewers highlight the very friendly and helpful owners, immaculately clean facilities, and comfortable, level pitches with shade. It is highly dog-friendly and close to charming villages with amenities. Minor points mentioned include dated facilities, occasional poor evening WiFi, limited restaurant availability outside peak season, and biting insects due to the riverside setting. Cycling from the site is noted as challenging.

Electric optional grass and earth tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Brilliant camp site off the beaten track and very animal friendly. I pass through here often on my way from France to Portugal and love the place. Just in front of the front gate there is a lovely river with a beach and there are nice wals around the site and a lovely old style village nearby with bars, butcher, restaurant etc.

Electric optional grass and earth tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Fantastic camping site in the mountains on the banks ofa lovely river with beach. Dog friendly, inmmaculate toilets / showers and a very friedndly couple running it. It is of the beaten track but well worth the diversion, it is close to some very lovely villages with ancient architecture, bars and supermarkets.

 Steve G. 1 review

Electric optional grass and earth campervan pitch

Liked Lovely setting by the river. Nice owners. Facilities seemed nice and clean but a little dated. Plenty of toilets and showers. We didn't really use them though.

The cycling from the site is not for the faint hearted. So you need to be fit or take an electric bicycle.

Lots of bird life and also looked decent for fishing.

Nice restaurant/bar area, but we didn't use it so can't I can't comment on the food.

We only stayed one night as we were on route to somewhere.

Disliked No real dislikes.

Electric optional grass and earth tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Rustige plek, vriendelijke eigenaar.

Disliked Bruin water uit de kraan in het begin.
‘s avonds slecht internet. ‘s ochtends voor vertrek helemaal geen internet . Lastig als je je route niet kunt zien en op de bonnefooi moet wegrijden.

Local attractions

First stop for active outdoorsy types will be the Parque Natural de Las Batuecas-Sierra de Francia (accessed directly from the site), where you can ramble through oak forests and go kayaking down deep canyons carved out by rivers. Be sure to have the camera ready at the Meandro del Melero (20 minutes’ drive), a famed and scenic bend on the Alagón River, and anyone with an interest in wildlife should keep hold of the binoculars for (rare) sightings of lynx, black storks and wild boar. For a journey back in time, head to historic Sotoserrano (five minutes) to explore its medieval streets lined with half-timbered buildings – particularly pretty when lit up at night – and have a stroll across the centuries-old Roman bridge crossing the Alagón. Other traditional and centuries-old villages to discover include Sequeros (half an hour) and La Alberca (20 minutes), both with café-lined piazzas ideal for an evening aperitivo or two.
