  • Spacious, shaded pitches 7km from central Santiago de Compostela
  • Shuttle to city centre; a half-hour walk to Monte do Gozo
  • Swimming pool, restaurant, bar and play area on site
Message to all hikers on the Camino de Santiago (aka St James’s Way) – whichever of the ancient routes you’ve followed, you’re very nearly at the end point by the time you get to Camping Peregrino San Marcos. This relaxed and spacious site is seven kilometres from the centre of Santiago de Compostela, making it a handy spot for a stopover before the final push – or a place to retreat to for a well-earned rest once you’ve acquired your final stamp. That’s not to say that you have to arrive on foot at all – you’re equally welcome to come straight here and settle in for a holiday (with family and dogs in tow if you wish). There are numerous hiking trails nearby where you can get a taster of the area's scenery, and a shuttle bus runs to the city centre for easy days out exploring at your leisure. You might also like to head into the city for a meal (the seafood is particularly fine around here), although there's also a restaurant on site, and a barbecue area for alfresco self catering. Whether you’ve trekked across the country, taken a hike locally or just strolled around the city streets, the presence of a swimming pool on site for a refreshing dip is likely to be very welcome. The same goes for the beach bar, serving up cool drinks to end your day. A play area and games room are also on site to provide entertainment for the kids. Pitches here are spacious and shaded, sitting among the trees; they all have access to a launderette and washing-up area as well as toilets and showers.

Fully-serviced grass and gravel touring pitch

Liked: Clean showers and toilets. Good walking or cycling into Santiago da Compostela. Cheap. WiFi was free and mostly worked - we were pitched near to the bar area. Bar staff checked us in and were very friendly it spoke no English. Bar is essentially used as a watering hole by folk walking to Santiago and it was fun to chat to some of them. Electric hook up was fine. Toilet paper in the loos.

Disliked: Pitches were somewhat overgrown. The bar/ reception closed around 4pm. The swimming pool exists, but was not open for use - it looked neglected and was not clear if it is ever available any more. It was an odd site. Lots of potential, but felt run down and in need of some tlc.

Fully-serviced grass and gravel touring pitch

Liked: Unkomplizierte Anreise . Ende Mai war nicht viel los und wir konnten uns einen Platz aussuchen . Sanitäranlagen waren ok etwas in die Jahre gekommen aber sauber. Warm Wasser für die Dusche war auch da ( Wasser musste etwas länger laufen ). Die Betreiber / Angestellten waren bemüht. Sind mit dem Taxi zur Catedrale gefahren .( Kosten ca. 12€-15€).

Disliked: Angepriesen wurde das dort mehrere Sprachen gesprochen werden , das ist nicht der Fall ! Ausschließlich Spanisch.

Fully-serviced grass and gravel touring pitch

Liked: Staff on site were helpful and the toilet and shower blocks were clean with hot running water - no push buttons

Disliked: Pitches were slightly overgrown and the shuttle bus doesn’t run past the site, you have to walk for about 1km to get to the bus stop in San Marcos town.

The cafe / restaurant bar shut about 4pm when we were there at the start of May and there aren’t many places close by to get food so stock up before you get to site. The pool wasn’t accessible and needed some serious cleaning but may be because it was classed as out of season. WiFi wasn’t accessible site wide.

Liked: The toilet facilities looked clean.

Disliked: It was awful. A shack for reception locked up and no one around. The pool was green and neglected. We looked and left as it felt very unsafe. Total misrepresentation of what there was.

Local attractions

The gorgeous city of Santiago de Compostela is a wonderful place to spend some time – there’s heaps to see here, so getting the shuttle in and out a couple of times is a great idea. The spectacular cathedral is the city’s glittering highlight, with the huge Praza do Obradoiro square just outside. Simply wandering the streets of the Old Town is lovely too – looking out for places like Praza da Quintana and stopping for drinks and eats along the way. To get a good overview of it all, head to Monte do Gozo (five minutes' drive/half an hour's walk), which has fabulous far-reaching views across the city’s rooftops. There are lots more places to have a walk nearby too (often involving a river or waterfall), plus fishing and horse riding. If you'd like to see a bit more of this part of Spain, Vigo, A Coruña and Pontevedra are all within an hour's drive, as is the lovely wine-producing coastal town of Cambados – all make excellent day trip options.
