Located on the north coast near Santander and open all year, this site is run by husband and wife team Pablo and Maria. Both English speaking and always providing an excellent service, their campsite is friendly and welcoming with pitches set on wide terraces and spotless facilities.
The site is popular in high season and provides plenty of amenities for families, including a pool and sunbathing area, a playground, a well-stocked shop and a restaurant. The beautiful beach is a 15-minute walk.
The spectacular Picos de Europa mountains are easily reached from the site and there are lots of good walking trails that enable visitors to admire the scenery. Buses run to the neighbouring town of Comillas, which is home to the remarkable El Capricho house, designed by Gaudí. The local town square also has plenty of cafés serving fantastic chocolate and churros.
