Portugal. How long.

[spikehcm681]

We are travelling down through Portugal at the end of August for about 10 weeks. We always stay on sites. Will we need to book? Probably just ambling down the coast. Never been before and only planning on doing 100 miles per day max.

Not in our experience.

There is a chain of campsites owned by Orbitur (https://www.orbitur.pt/en/) most of which are on the west coast

Not all are open in the winter. We've stayed at most of them.

I think they went through a rocky patch about 5 years ago - we haven't stayed on them recently. so worth looking at some recent reviews.

Try Vila Nova de Milfontes - 2 campismos there.

P.S. we once spent 14 days moving along the Alrgarve each day and had only gone 60 miles in that time.

We are going to drive to Portugal in August. I want to go along a costal route instead of the motorway.

You will be fine providing you don't have camping tyres, do have full air suspension and your teeth mounted in rubber inserts.

Right, back to the drawing board or should I say Motorway

Being honest it is driveable but very rough in places so progress is slow.

Nope, not doing it it's bad enough with us two driving in comfort on nice roads not sure our marriage will survive it

If you were up for a bit of a history themed holiday in Portugal, you could follow the footsteps of Wellington and his Army. Recently seen here in Glasgow supporting the underdogs...again
