Perfect for Haro Wine Battle

We visited for the 2017 Wine Battle. As per previous reviews, ideal location, easy walk into town, lots of Bodegas and the coach transfers to the Wine Battle are directly outside the campsite. Pitches are of varied and reasonable sizes but beware as trees, bushes and posts to negotiate. The Wash Blocks are spotless with amazing showers (levers not timed bush buttons), plenty of hooks and shelves. Restaurant and bar friendly with average quality food. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Great site in the heart of Rioja country

What a lovely site based just on the outskirts of Haro, the heart of the Rioja wine making region. Its just under 2 hours drive from san Sebastien. Great for visiting the local Bodegas, I can recommend CVNE for great wines at reasonable prices and a lovely experience if you do the wine tour. Walking distance into the town of Haro where there are supermarkets and restaurants. Shower blocks are very clean, separate for male and female. Good facilities, you select your own pitch when you arrive from the areas the receptionist points out to you. Lovely outdoor swimming pool too. Will definitely be going back.

Great site for motorhome as so much in walking distance

Highly recommend this site either to try out wines or overnight before the ferry. We stayed for two nights in May with a 7.2m motorhome which we parked in the field. The site was busy and many of the available pitches were tight for turning or a squeeze on size but we liked the field better anyway - very friendly, full of like minded people and very sociable. Plenty of clean toilet and showers, bar that sells basics of bread and wine but not cheese or butter. Swimming pool was unheated but we welcomed that as we were there in a heat wave of 40+. Site gets very busy at weekends (lots of long term ptiches) and can be a bit noisy if there are big family gatherings. In walking distance of the town, supermarkets, restaurants and bars and best of all, a short stroll to some of Rioja's best wine makers. And it's an easy drive to Santander.

Camping de Haro

This is a lovely site, very peaceful when we have been in both February, March, October and November 2016. The facilities are very good and clean, with plenty of hot water. The town itself, although at the top of a steep hill, is well worth the effort, being well supplied with shops, bars, shopping opportunities and historical interest. Then there are the numerous Bodegas in and around the town, many within walking distance and you can just go and have a taster session for a very few euros or a tour of more than a few! Enjoy

Good overnight stop

This site is perfect for an overnight stop with a short 15 minute walk up to the town centre. The toilets and showers were clean and plentiful and the reception staff were helpfull and spoke good English if required. I have stayed here before and will stay here again as it fits my requirements perfectly.

Oct 2016

The site was easy to find although initial access required a little thought to negotiate posts and barrier. The toilets and showers were very good, both clean and warm. Plenty of choice of pitches- probably due to the time of year. It was a short walk into town, which was delightful. However don't expect to find food early evening, as the restaurants don't serve until 8.30pm

One Night in October 2016

We stayed only one night on the way from Santander to the south and as we didn't use all the facilities our review is a little restricted. The directions and access into the site was easy enough, whilst the roadways within the site particularly because of trees planted close to edges needed care to navigate through. We'd suggest parking up and having a walk through. There was no allocation of pitch or assistance after booking in and we were left to find the best we could. Frankly there as a lot of choice at the time of our stay, but we did not find a pitch with water, electric and drainage and just settled for the first reasonable pitch we came to. It was a 10 minute walk into Haro town centre which is typically Spanish and delightful. The site sanitary facilities were clean, with hot water and good shower facilities. We were disappointed to be charged not only for electric, but also for the pitch and the four of us as we had prepaid though the club booking service!

No plot allocated despite booking for a large caravan

This is a good short stay site for either of the ports Bilbao or Santander and a good position from which to visit the Bodegas. The site has rather narrow access roads so we struggled to get onto the pitch we finally located after an hour of driving and walking around the site. We were very disappointed that no plot had been reserved for us - we were just advised to go and find a spot in a large ringed area on a map. All the plots in the area were either far too small to accommodate a large caravan or were already occupied by large motorhomes. We wandered around the site for some time until we found 1 plot which was big enough for our van to sit on sideways. When we asked if we could use this plot we were told it was free but there was no water or drainage on the plot which we had requested when we booked. We thought the staff managing the plot allocations in the office seemed rather disorganised and had no idea we had a large unit reservation.

Excellent stopover

I stayed here in early October for 2 nights on my way back to Santander from the south of Spain. It was being well used by tourers, but most of the permanent sites were not being used, so maybe for this reason it was very quiet and peaceful......no children.I found the site excellent. I had my pick at 17.30 when I arrived about where to pitch. It is true the pitch I chose had a very hardstanding gravel and stone base and was it very hard to hammer pegs in, but this was not a problem for two nights and it had the advantage that had it rained there would have been no mud. Other pitches were more grassy. As others have said the facilities were excellent, although the restaurant/ bar was only open at weekends and the pool was shut at this point in the season. You can walk to the local bodegas and sample quantities of wines and walk back.The local town is charming with lots of small shops and a market, however most of the local bars and cafes only seem to serve food at lunchtime/ afternoon, so in my search to find somewhere to eat on my first night was disappointed.

Stayed for 7 nights 2nd week August

Have read previous reviews and would say that some have been unfair due to their inexperience. This site is popular and therefore busy. There are many statics that whatever are busy hi season and at weekends. We booked through the CC and was allocated a large hedge pitch. Site roads are narrow but plenty of room. The pool is a great place to cool after a long journey. If one has not booked get there before mid afternoon for a pitch. We enjoyed our stay for 7 days and found the old town very interesting. There are at least 20 bodegas for the Ricoja wine growers so plenty of choice. Haro is on one of the pilgrim trails and you will see many people on their way to Santiago D C. Would be more than happy to return bearing in mind we visited in high season. Facs. are spotless and plenty of hot water. Thanks to the CC for booking us in.
