This is a pleasant and peaceful site (though very busy in August) with some 539 separate marked pitches, 260 for touring units, with much natural shade and ample electrical connections (10A). Motorhomes park in an area called the Oasis which is very pretty. Tent and caravan pitches, under mature trees, are terraced and separated by low walls.

An extension provides further pitches, a modern toilet block and a tennis court. There are 300 pitches which include 104 bungalows to rent.

Previously known as Camping Cuevas Mar, this is a well-established campsite that proves popular and busy during the warm winter months. The 179 flat pitches on a stone chip are generally 80-100 sq.m. each with a 6/10amp electric supply. Shrubs and trees (some shade) act as pitch dividers, and those near the road are not overly affected as traffic volume is relatively low. Some areas have shade canopies erected during the hot summer months. Overall, throughout, there is a peaceful atmosphere.
A simple country site perched high in the mountains of Las Alpujarras, on the south side of the Sierra Nevada, El Balcon de Pitres has its own rustic charm.
Hundreds of trees planted around the site provide shade. There are stunning views from some of the 175 level, grassy pitches (large units may find pitch access difficult).

La Buganvilla is a large, uncomplicated site with mature trees providing a little shade to some of the 250 touring pitches. However, increasingly static caravans, seasonal pitches and bungalows are taking over many pitches. They all have 16A electricity and are mostly on terraces, so there are some views across to the mountains and hinterland of this coastal area. The terrain is a little rugged in places all three sanitary blocks are well maintained and clean. A pool complex near the bar and restaurant is ideal for cooling off after a day’s sightseeing. This is a pleasant base from which to explore areas of the Costa del Sol and it is an easy drive to the picturesque Ronda Valley.

The 86 good sized touring pitches are on level ground and all have electricity. There is little shade from the young trees, and being on a plain the pitches could become extremely hot during summer. There is a beautiful pool with access for visitors with disabilities, and a good value restaurant with magnificent views of the surrounding countryside. Paths lead through the site to a viewpoint and picnic area, which are extremely popular at weekends. It is an ideal site for those wishing to explore Andalucia; it is just 40 minutes from the beaches at Malaga and one hour from Seville, Granada and Cordoba.

Head to Cadiz for its winding streets and ancient monuments, then visit Jerez, famous for its sherry and the Royal Andalusian Horse School. Back at the base, various excursions and activities are offered, such as Flamenco, music nights and cookery lessons. Alternatively, enjoy the wonderful surroundings of Conil and its white sandy beaches or venture along the local cycle trails.
A charming site amongst the olive trees, set high on a hill to catch cool summer breezes.

The campsite is family-run and friendly, offering excursions to Almonte, Matalascanas beach and even the Algarve. For something a little different, ask at reception about expeditions into the national park on horseback or by 4x4 - it's a great way to experience this unique landscape.

Can you point to Europe’s only desert on a map? Do you know where you can stand with your feet in the snow while looking at Africa? Guess where you can find castle-crusted crags, stranded in time, yet only an hour’s drive from bustling seaside resorts? Fancy skiing this morning, followed by a dip in the sea this afternoon?
Andalusia is the axis between Europe and Africa and the meeting point of the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. This region has been coveted by many different cultures throughout history since prehistoric times.
The Andalusia region has an area of 87,268 km2 and represents 17.3% of Spain and is, therefore, larger than the entire Benelux region.
With the River Guadalquivir running through it, the charming city of Seville is one of the most visited places in the region. The old city, with its great monuments, the Giralda Tower, cathedral and the Alcázar, plus the narrow, winding streets of Santa Cruz, is particularly popular. Also on the Guadalquivir, Cordoba is located northeast of Seville. It has a picturesque Jewish Quarter along with a rich Moorish heritage. Indeed, the Mezquita is one of the grandest mosques ever built by the Moors in Spain.
Located further east on the foothills of the Sierra Nevada mountain range, Granada is home to the impressive Alhambra, a group of distinct buildings including a Royal Palace, splendid gardens, and the fortress of Alcazaba. The Sierra Nevada, Spain’s highest range, offers good skiing and trekking. Further south, you’ll find the fine beaches and tourist areas of the Costa Tropical and the Costa del Sol, including the developed resort of Malaga. There are more beaches on the west coast, plus one of the oldest settlements in Spain, the bustling port of Cádiz.
The diversity of landscapes and geographic terrain leads to a range of environments ranging from the heat of the Guadalquivir River valley to lush low mountain areas and volcanic landscapes such as the Tabernas Desert and the snow-capped Sierra Nevada peaks.
In barely forty kilometres, you can go from alpine mountain landscapes to tropical areas on the shores of the Mediterranean. The coast of Andalusia stretches for almost 900 kilometers and is home to a large number of towns, villages and beaches that are a pleasure to visit.
The whole ensemble represents a range of attractions for tourists, from impressive monuments in big cities to typical small villages, which have been a constant source of inspiration for artists of all kinds.
Andalucía comprises of eight regions: Almeria, Cadiz, Cordoba, Granada, Huelva, Malaga, Jaen and Seville.
