Has anyone been?


I'm thinking ahead somewhat, but trying to find a family holiday that won't bankrupt us in the school holidays next year. I'm beginning to accept that whilst something like a neilson beach club would be ideal, we can nowhere near afford it!! So I'm thinking maybe one of the european centre parc type camp sites might work....? But I've never really camped...and need running water or I'll be miserable....


So I think we need a lodge or mobile home type pitch rather than an actual tent. And by a beach would be nice...


Anyone been to either of these - La Torre de la mora, or La torre del sol (not the same place as I first thought!). Any other suggestions? I don't understand why there is a camp site own web site, then the same camp site mentioned on other websites too...which is best to book through? Or any other ideas for budget fun?

IF it's like the French ones, you tend to get better deals if booking directly with the site rather than via operators like Keycamp/Eurocamp. But you won't then get the English speaking kids clubs and you will be in the general accommodation rather than an area which is predominantly British. (You may see that as a plus or a negative.) In France we got better caravan/pitch by booking direct.


For young kids, I found the set-up ideal - pools and a beach and within reach of a few nice towns/villages was all we needed.


But not been to any Spanish ones I'm afraid. Would be good to hear if they're any good.

We went to noja on north coast with venue holidays - fly to either Bilbao or Santander (or do ferry if you have time). Can't recommend it highly enough. It's warm but not blistering and very green (with it being the Costa Verde). Worked out cheaper than going direct to site for some reason

We went to camping cypsela on the costa brava a few years ago. Lovely part of Spain, not too many Brits and gorgeous coast. Just about drivable in a day from caen if you go hell for leather! It's got eurocamp, keycamp etc on site but like nunhead mum says, cheaper to book one of site sites own cabins. Also second half of august tends to be a bit cheaper

      Cllr Williams to stand down

      By Sue · Posted

      I am  ill in bed with Covid. It's not that I "can't be bothered" to read things. I am feeling crap and don't have the mental  energy at the moment. I am not "brushing stuff aside and pleading ignorance." I am truthfully saying when I don't presently know enough about something to be able to comment. I have always been very careful to try to  differentiate between fact and opinion in both  my posts and other people's, and I am not clear what your point is. And I am certainly not trying to wind anybody up. This is a forum. If you don't want to respond to my posts, that's up to you. I'm not sure why you feel the need to announce it.

      Nasty kids in Peckham Park

      @NewWave I know how you feel. Like you, I've lived and spent prolonged periods of time in some pretty crazy places and always thought I could handle a bunch of kids. But, no - they got to me and I was shaking like a leaf afterwards. That's what age does to us.  But I did engage with them, so bear that in mind.  My advice would be to never let anything like that stop you doing the things you love. I'm certainly not going to stop using the park, there's no way they get to take away our cherished spaces!  If you see them, just change tack and keep out of their way. My dog won't even go that way again, so that's that problem solved. (If I see them again, I'm going to keep taking photos from a safe distance).

      Truly horrific. Being passive or fighting back is what many of us think about by violent theft.
