Extremely personable and eager to help in enjoying our time there, lovely little site 25 minute bus ride to Alhambra, less than 4 euro for two each way and on time!
Restaurant excellent with typical local cuisine, and a tapa served with every drink bought, excellent value!

Garrido the receptionist, well he managed and did most of the work on the whole site, he was always on hand to give advice and help when needed (you will need to brush up on your Spanish however, his sons speak a little English).

The communal area is kept very clean, loads of hot water, but I showered in cold water as it is very hot at this time of the year.

Great electric supply.

Great swimming pool, this was alright as the site capacity was very low however, if they were to be on half or full capacity it could prove to be too crowded, maybe consider enlarging pool and put an opening leading directly to the restaurant, you could probably serve drinks and snacks by the pool?

We were allowed to select our own pitch (not too many bookings due to Covid 19)

You could get a bus right outside the campsite entrance (in the car park of the campsite restaurant) to Granada city center everyday (the bus did not run on Saturday for what reason we do not know, misunderstanding maybe), it cost 1.85 euros per person each way, it took about 20 minutes to get there, great place to visit, loads of historic buildings.

The campsite restaurant serves great food, we ate there twice during our 5 night stay. The restaurant also sells ice creams, beverages and food to takeaway. The restaurant is used by the locals also, so ensure to book your table to avoid a long wait.

In the reception you could put your freezer blocks in the freezer to freeze everyday, we also put bottles of water in there for our days out (its very hot at this time of the year).

You could walk to the local village Beas (took about 15 minute stroll). There is a great restaurant on the left called Restaurante La Pradera, we went there twice during the day for a few drinks and tapas (every drink included a free tapas). There's also a couple of supermarkets, great to stock up, a hardware shop and a smaller bar.

The pitch grounds are very hard
Communal area requires cosmetic updating but functions perfectly
Pool requires cosmetic updating

La vue magnifique sur la Sierra Nevada enneigée, l'arrêt de bus pour Grenade à l'entrée du camping, la disponibilité des jeunes réceptionnistes.

Les emplacements pas pratiques pour installer les caravanes.
La vétusté des douches

Everything! The friendly reception staff, the clean facilities, the public bus stop for exploring Granada right at the entrance to the campsite, the restaurant next door, and the GORGEOUS view of the Sierra Nevada! We liked it so much, we stayed a week.

Occasional barking dogs.

Bien dans l ensemble

Clean facilities

Most pitches are rocky and unsuitable for tents - this would have been a problem if nearly full campsite. A guard dog next to our pitch (site owners) constantly barked and woke us early every morning.

Small, friendly campsite, with clean toilets and showers.
Easy access to Granada on the 300 bus (1.80€ each way)
Must visit the town and the Alhambra. We also visited Sierra Nevada ski resort, hiked the gorge in Monatril and the beach at Playa Rijana (pretty stony cove with snorkelling)

Probablement le camping qui nous a le plus plu pendant notre roadtrip. On y a passé deux nuits et on aurait bien aimé y passer la semaine ! L’accueil au top le patron est super sympa, un camping familial comme on les aiment ! Situé à 10km de Grenade avec une vue incroyable sur la Sierra Nevada franchement le paysage est magique. A notre arrivée on a demandé si on pouvait mettre nos pains de glaces et des bouteilles au frais le patron nous a dit aucun problèmes, on a choisit l’emplacement, il faut dire qu’on était au calme car on était j’en crois 6 emplacements sur la grosse 50 aine possible donc on était vraiment au calme. La piscine était nickel avec une pelouse entretenue autour, un arrêt de bus navette pour Grenade à l’entrée du camping.
Un super restaurant dans le camping où les locaux viennent également car les produits sont frais et très bien cuisinés par la mama ;) un personnel du restaurant ultra gentil rien à redire ! Les sanitaires propres il y a de quoi faire des lessives aussi.

Notre seul regret : n’etre resté que deux nuits ! On reviendra avec grand plaisir c’est un camping à découvrir je vous le recommande fortement ! Il y a même des petits chalets pour l’hivers car il est ouvert à l’annee et j’imagine que ça doit être superbe l’hiver avec la neige sur la Sierra Nevada
