Grote camping (zeg maar rustig resort) met ongeveer 2000 plaatsen. Ook erg veel stacaravans op een andere zijde van de camping. Vriendelijk personeel. Camping is alleen te bezoeken als men vooraf via internet boekt en gedeeltelijk betaald. Het restant van de betaling moet gedaan worden bij het eerste bezoek bij de receptie.
Groot sanitair blok wat goed onderhouden wordt. Zwembad is gericht op kinderen.
Broodservice en winkel aanwezig en open.
In het weekend komen hier veel mensen uit Madrid, wat meer reuring geeft.
De paden aan de buitenzijde van de camping zijn stoffig en worden bereden door voertuigen.
Er kan veel gewandeld worden op als buiten de camping.

Kan door corona komen maar de camping viel ons erg tegen. Slecht verzorgd terrein met veel onkruid rondom de bomen. Er stonden tijdens ons bezoek nog 3 campers. Deel van de voorzieningen was niet open. Geen WiFi op de plaatsen.

niet aan te raden. onverzorgde staanplaatsen, plaatsen niet gescheiden of afgebakend. Stoffige onverharde wegen tussen de percelen.Is absoluut zijn geld NIET waard. Wij zijn er dan ook maar één nacht gebleven.

Wegen Motorschaden am zugfahrzeug sind wir hier mit Caravan gestrandet und müssen nun wegen der Reparatur 12 Tage hier ausharren. Am 3. Tag, nachdem alle Einheimischen Camper wieder weg waren wurde im Sanitärgebäude das warme Wasser abgestellt. Das nächste Sanitärgebäude ist für ältere Reisende ohne Motor kaum ohne Probleme erreichbar, da am Pool gelegen. Der große Pool war von Anfang an nicht benutzbar, weil leer, was auch verschwiegen wurde. Baulärm durch pressluftgeräte bis auf Siesta der Arbeiter ununterbrochen. Die Stellplätze selbst und zwar alle, durch tiefe Löcher uneben und nicht ausgleichbar. Vermutlich durch die diversen Karnickel verursacht, was aufgrund der Hinterlassenschaften und natürlich Sichtung vermutet wird. Man kam uns für die Mängel finanziell weder entgegen noch entschuldigte sich jemand hierfür.

No aceptan la Acsi en fechas en que muchos lo hacen. Si no vienes en fin de semana o puente, no hay actividades en el miniclub. El castillo hinchable sólo funciona en julio y agosto. Su piscina supuestamente climatizada está a tan sólo 21 grados. Mala relación calidad/precio. La limpieza de los baños escasa o superficial.

Grand camping avec une partie résidence et une partie terrain de camping. Là c\'est un vaste champ sans arbustes pour delimiter les emplacements, c\'est bien hors saison mais ce doit être terrible en pleine saison ! Du bruit venant des piscines et des terrains de jeux. Bons sanitaires en nombre et praticité. Une supérette complète. Le bus pour aller à l\'escurial est à 750 mètres et l\'escurial à 7kms. Wifi gratuit mais autour du restaurant. Un bon camp pour visiter la ville.

We arrived in late October and stayed a week. It was so quiet for a massive site, in fact sometimes you could imagine being completely on your own. I do not know why a previous comment said there was no room for an 8 metre motorhome...we pitched an 8.2 metre caravan AND Discovery 4 with no problems. There was also a 10 metre American motorhome ( I measured it) pitched nearby. Its ideally situated for visiting Segovia and San Lorenzo El Escorial (by bus from the top of the access road) which we visited twice in the week. Also worth a visit is the Valley of The Fallen, an immense Basilica built inside and under a mountain. It defies words after visiting the burial tombs of the Spanish Royal families over many years in San Lorenzo. Toilet blocks spotless and the staff could not be more helpful or cheery. Some of the pitches had sunshades which were very welcome in 28degree heat. Will definitely return if in the area again.

Prima camping om Madrid te bezoeken. Het is een grote massale cp. met in het weekend veel Madrilenen. Ook als doortrekcamping geschikt.

Located on the M600, at km-marker 3.5 near El Valle de Los Caidos. From Madrid take A6, exit 47 El Escorial/Guadarrama. Attention: Do not take fastest route. Without SatNav you will end up on unpaved road that is problematic with a caravan.
