High standard sites in Spain

Hi, ID1

Which part of Spain are you thinking of visiting ?

We’ve found the campingred group pretty reliable for good quality sites, but I’m sure many other Club Together people will have other suggestions.

Happy Travels! 😊

This might meet some of your requirements? http://www.davidklyne.co.uk/camping_l_amfora.htm

Thanks for the information from Pliers & from David.More suggestions would be welcome.

You will struggle to find many places offering pitches as big as 120 sq m especially in the popular areas. The old standard used to be 10 metres square giving 100 m2. but now most are probably a bit less than that. The enclosed pitches you are looking for do exist on some sites such as La Manga and Bonterra Park and no doubt others but Spanish sites do not have the degree of regimentation you find on C&MC sites in the UK. Many sites will meet most of your requirements but not many will meet them all.

weve stayed in some that would meet your requiremnts, but would also add wall to wall sunshine, amazing site staff, continuous facilities cleaning, tours from site, supermarket nearby, real spanish town next door with local festive diary of regular events, fabulous beach, wonderful mountains, walking, cycling all at ACSI discount prices, with no pegs, no arrival times, no queuing.....

you didnt say where you were heading, Spain is a blooming big country.

a clue would help.

as LR mentions above....Bonterra Park is a regular haunt of purs and we loved KikoPark this spring....

just dont expect too many rules....

Do you want to visit El Rocio ? Then stay at Camping la Aldea. But where and what do you want to see in Spain ? Surely more than a campsite.

We went to Spain with caravan for first time this spring/early summer for 6 weeks touring, with similar aspirations to yours. 

We found plenty of excellent sites which ticked many of the boxes, but the two factors which we didn’t really find to any degree were....

1. Electricity - many sites are 6 amp or 10 amp (not more) though some have charged for rates beyond this level, said by many to be expensive.

2. Pitch size - whilst I cannot recall exact sizes, I doubt many would be the size you quote.

I wouldn’t let these factors put you off. The warmer weather meant we ate far more cold meals than normal, cooked on gas barbq & certainly didn’t need any heating. So with a little care, 6 amps wasn’t really an issue. (Wife did have to take her straighteners to the toilet blocks which were more than 6 amps).

as for pitch size, so many sites had great landscaped swimming pool areas or adjacent beaches, that we found the lesser spaces of the pitch itself to be fine.

top site we found was Playa Bara, midway between Tarragona and Sitges.

in overall terms, I would say we found Spanish sites of the type you seek better quality than their French or English counterparts. A generalisation I know, but we will be returning next year without a doubt.

re the lower amperage...many manage as they dont need heating etc but if you are going put of season and its a bit chillier, to avoid tripping the bollard (or to keep cost down if metered) many long termers use local bottled repsol/cepsa gas to run the fridge and any heating or hot water needs.

youll really enjoy it.
