Campsite Torre de la Peña ***

This site no longer accepts ACSI. Site on the hillside, but plenty of level pitches. Toilets, showers, laundry and waste disposal very clean and easy to use. Small shop on site adequate. Reception good. Bar - Restaurant on site very clean, good food, reasonably priced, if you are staying 30% discount. Lovely place, would definitely recommend.

When we arrived on site there were only five pitches left, and as you might expect, they were not the best. Our pitch just about leaves room for us to open the mojo door and get one chair outside. There are some wonderful pitches on this site, which is split in two by a main road with a tunnel to get you through safely. If you are lucky, the Ocean side front rows have spectacular views overlooking the sea, with the sun on them all day, as do some of the mountain side plots. And then there are the ‘B’ pitches which are in the majority, behind the front rows under trees that get no sun and have no outlook either. The main toilets and showers at the bottom of the site are quite dated, but up on the hillside the facility block looks refurbished or new, and spotlessly clean. So, how lucky do you feel? The roads on the mountain side are quite steep and I can see it would be difficult for really long vans or caravan towing. It’s not good if you have any mobility issues either, given you have to go uphill or downhill for the facilities, and for this reason alone we will have to move on. Access onto the pitches are very tight as well, with - on some pitches- neighbours within touching distance. When we arrived on our pitch the man next to us had set up his solar panel partly on our pitch, so was not best pleased when we arrived.
The hedge around us is quite high, so sat outside the Moho all we can see is hedge, but from within the van, we can see the sea in the distance. We’ll stay until we can book onto another, flatter site. One more suitable for us, our mobility issues and our dog.
