This looks fabulous.

It was, many of the smaller streets snd courtyards have flower displays outside of their houses as well. The aire is on a raised side if town and you get a view of the whole place from your pitch. We stayed two nights

 

[manners]

A few more next to voi verts, the last one has a velo rail (bikes on rails) that you can hire.

 

[MichaelT]

Sorry MichaelT but I didn't realise that you haven't quite got the hang of it. Most of us on forum know that what you do when you want to visit an Aire is to take your motorhome with you by road.

But you posted about a slipway as a feature to launch a boat, I've got a motorhome but no boat so why would I want a slipway?

I could lend you a kayak if you promise not to drag it along the road!

Myself and Wendo55 stayed here in 2024. Beaumont-le-Roger, France. Lovely newish Aire very clean with services including some free EHU points. Short walk in to a very nice town but we got a shock ordering 2 beers costing €16 after being used to Benidorm prices. The bar was also a newsagent, tobacconists come PO come all sorts really.

scousebird great idea for a thread, thank you.

Playa Quitapellejos is on a hard standing area near Vera beach, there's loads of room for many vans, when you've had your time there you can go to a camp site about 2 minutes away for services at a cost of 4 Euro.
I.ve been to if you park close to the fence, you could be moved on but left alone if you don't.
It's on Search for sites.

Bellabee, Unfortunately, I wont add any that arent "created" by ourselves.

From someones point of view this could just be copying S4S and reallocating their information so original photos are a bit of a necessity. Perhaps next year take a couple of photos.
