The owner opened the ‘disabled’ toilets for the three units on site and they are immaculate, the best we have used in decades. The normal toilets and showers are in an outside block so we’re cold. There were also chilling out rooms with excellent views. There were no eating or drinking facilities other than bread available in the morning.There was a MSP but we didn’t need it. It was tight getting out with our 7.5m MH due to parked vehicles but otherwise a good stopover. It is ACSI inspected so no ACSI discount. We didn’t venture off site as the weather was terrible.

Beautiful campsite in the most gorgeous location. Plenty of information/advice on drives, walks and other activities to make the most of your stay. Totally unspoilt corner of Portugal worthy of a few days stay

A lovely site but although I found it through the ACSI app, it does not participate in the scheme. I may be missing something but I was under the impression that if a site was in the app, it also in the range if fixed rates listed. Why I bought it! I also note it us not in the 2019 CC book so maybe it’s a hangover from previous years.

We stayed here for 1 night on our way from Salamanca to Coimbra. Visited Almeida on the way which is well worth a short detour off the A25 if you have time. This site is well signposted from the N17. Access into the site is fine in a motorhome but could be a bit tight with a caravan but fine if you take care. The dutch owners were very welcoming and showed us to a choice of pitches. These are laid out on terraces all with electric nearby. The site has a lovely rustic feel to it with lots of olive trees and bushes. The toilets and facilities were all clean. There is good access for water/grey waste and toilet emptying. Wi-fi is available near the main building. A set menu is available for dinner ( we didn’t try this) as is bread for the following day but must be ordered by 6pm. There are excellent information boards in various languages listing all of the activities particularly walking and cycling. We only stayed one night due to rain spoiling our plans for cycling from the site so we moved onto Coimbra. (Don’t miss the amazing Roman remains and excellent museum at Conímbriga 30 mins SW of Coimbra). All in all a very nice rural site which is a good base for exploring the hilltop villages and walking and cycling. We were not disturbed by village dogs as other reviewers have mentioned. (Rocket Dog).
