  • Family-friendly campsite 20 minutes’ drive from central Madrid
  • Parque Warner Madrid 20 minutes’ drive and Toledo 45 minutes
  • Restaurant, tapas bar, barbecues and shop; pool and sports courts
Keen to explore Madrid but not so keen on staying right in the city centre? Compromise by setting yourselves up at Camping Alpha, a leafy site 20 minutes’ drive from days of sightseeing at famed attractions including the Museo Nacional del Prado, Palacio Real and Plaza de España. But don’t plan to spend all your time in Madrid, for there’s plenty going on at the campsite – basketball, volleyball and tennis for starters, as well as swimming pools (one for toddlers) open in the summer months, and a play area to tire out the kids. The tapas bar and restaurant come with a terrace for leisurely dining on balmy evenings, and if you fancy doing some alfresco cooking yourself, you can get grilling on the communal barbecues (stock up on food at the campsite store). The pitches at Camping Alpha are tucked under trees for shade on hot summer days, there’s 24-hour service at reception, a launderette and modern showers. The site is handy for catching the train into Madrid from Getafe Central railway station (10 minutes’ drive) or taking the bus – there’s a stop a few paces from the campsite entrance – while Nassica and Westfield Parquesur shopping malls are both about 10 minutes away by car.

What customers say

Spacious pitches & friendly staff praised, pool a highlight, near Madrid. But facilities often reported as dated, grubby, poorly maintained. Noise, especially weekends, plus patchy electrics & tidiness are issues.

Liked Rien

Disliked Une horreur, n’y allez pas! Emplacements non délimités, on s’installe où l’on veut, donc on vit les uns avec les autres. Les branchements électriques sont cassés, brûlés ou autres. Les sanitaires sont sales en mauvais état…. Le restaurant bar dégoûtant avec des détritus au sol, la carte que l on nous a tendu pour consulter était tachée de café et de nourriture. Après avoir planté nos tentes dans des nids de fourmis nous avons pris la décision de replier et de partir à l hôtel…la seule chose qui paraissait correcte était la piscine…. Et pourtant je fréquence des campings depuis plus de 40 ans!

Liked Not much, it’s the closest to Madrid though!?

Disliked Noisy, filthy rubbish everywhere from locals partying especially at the weekends. They seem to drop whatever they have straight on the ground. Dirty toilets, showers turn on but stay on for 10 mins or so if you’re lucky:- can’t turn them off.
Beware the bus stop (no 447) into Madrid is 250meters away by the side of the motorway, and it stops 500m away on the other side of the motorway … ok if you know that, but their reception map doesn’t show it.
Best advice is get the bus/ metro in, and Uber back.
The restaurant is hit and miss… it closes at 4 some days and late others. Apart from the understandable early close on a Sunday, but it was the same 4pm close on Tuesday??

Liked Good location for visiting Madrid. Staff very helpful and friendly.
This place is not a holiday resort it is a very convenient stop over.

For the people in motorhomes that are leaving bad reviews about the toilets and showers, if you don't like what's on offer then use your own facilities.

Liked Reception staff and bar/restaurant staff friendly.

Disliked Recommend not to arrive on a Saturday when the campsite is taken over by hundreds of locals for communal BBQs and use of pool area. Not all of the electric hook ups work, the bathroom facilities need updating, and rubbish around the site.

Local attractions

Head into Madrid (20 minutes’ drive) to view spectacular Old Masters at the Museo Nacional del Prado and contemporary works at the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofía. Alternatively, picnic under the trees in Buen Retiro Park, browse the artisan stalls at El Rastro flea market and hang out in tapas bars around Plaza de España. But Madrid is not the only gorgeous city close by. Heading a bit further afield, you can visit Toledo (45 minutes) to tour the exquisite 10th-century Mezquita Cristo de la Luz and the gaily painted interior of the Gothic-era Catedral Primada. Other options include a trifecta of UNESCO-listed cities and their architectural wonders: the gardens and palaces of Aranjuez (half an hour), Segovia’s Jewish Quarter and the wraparound medieval walls of Ávila (both 90 minutes). Closer to base camp, make a beeline for Cerro de los Ángeles (half an hour’s walk), a hilltop complex regarded as the geographical centre of Spain, where you can admire the monastery and monumental statue of Jesus. If the kids are getting impatient with all this culture, the antidote is surely Parque Warner Madrid (20 minutes’ drive) with adrenaline-busting rollercoasters and gentle rides for those of a more nervous disposition.
