  • Peaceful family site on the banks of the Tormes river
  • Under six kilometres from the ancient city of Salamanca
  • Pools, indoor play, car wash and restaurant for guests and locals
There’s lots to like about the Castile and Leon site of Camping Don Quijote, but you might care to focus on the most important first – the restaurant here is rather special. Open to guests and locals alike – always a good sign – this stellar spot is great for breakfast, lunch, dinner or just a good drink. There’s an extensive wine list, as well as a menu for kids and special dishes throughout the year… all to work through indoors or out on the renovated terrace, or to take away to have by your berth. All that, and dogs are allowed too. The setting of the site is worth a postcard home too: Camping Don Quijote is on the banks of the Tormes river, only 15 minutes’ drive from the splendid old city of Salamanca, and about 20 minutes’ walk (a kilometre and a half) from local village Cabrerizos. And on site? There are pools for grownups and tiddlers, a multigames zone for indoor play, and a soccer field for kicking a ball about. The completely overhauled amenities include separate toilets for ladies, gents and guests with reduced mobility, hot water 24 hours a day, baby bathtubs and changing tables, and a laundry area with dishwashing sinks; the site also has a car wash. And one more, most excellent, aspect of that Camping Don Quijote restaurant? Let the staff know if you’re celebrating something and they’ll make your night go with an extra zing.

Electric optional grass tent pitch

Liked: Clean site and facility. Friendly and professional staff. Good restaurant, adequate shop for essentials. Park beside the river and easy access to the city. Wildlife about the site - especially the hoopoe, but the variety of finches was also fun.

Disliked: The loud noise of the train at night, in a tent it almost sounded as though it was running through the site. Those staying in campers will hear it less. The Wifi faded out and disappeared for a few hours.

Electric optional hardstanding and grass motorhome pitch

Liked: Friendly staff, good choice of pitches which will have shade when trees are in leaf. Great food in restaurant.

Disliked: Pitches very sandy, lots of grit carried on shoes. Approach to Gents toilet very inadequate, path should be paved or tarmac or even gravel. Lots of mud and grass clippings taken into toilets and showers. Cannot understand why this has not been improved upon as site is not new.

Local attractions

Salamanca, of course… drive or cycle from Camping Don Quijote to this spectacular city, a university town, UNESCO World Heritage Site and former European Capital of Culture. Where to start? The Don Quijote team recommends just getting lost among the city streets; every corner, they say, is worth it, and at any time of year too. If you prefer your sightseeing time to be more itinerary-based, make first for Plaza Mayor, often called the most beautiful central plaza in the country, and stay until dark to see the baroque architecture light up. And then? Other Salamanca sightseeing options (there are many) include taking one of the four routes around the city, pottering around the Casa Lis Art Nouveau and Art Deco museum, having a look at the Escuelas Mayores courtyard at the University of Salamanca, and sampling yet more local cuisine such as chanfaina (steamed rice with pork) and hornazo meat pies – drop into the visitors’ centre in the San Millán Church for all the info you need.
