We visited in winter and found this a really pleasant, peaceful site (despite being almost full) in stunning surroundings. The new loo and shower block is excellent, very clean and a huge improvement on most other sites we\'ve experienced in Spain. The site itself has marked pitches divided by hedges and plenty of trees but ample winter sunshine. The gravel pitches are fairly generous but there is a slight lack of turning space, which can make it awkward to get in and out of the pitches. However, every pitch has water connection as well as electricity. We had a major problem whilst staying here when our electrics completely failed and we then ran out of gas, we were to discover that we couldn\'t get a Spanish canister as they and the connections are very different to those in the UK (and other European countries as well). We were able to plug in a UK extension cable using an adaptor in the two-pin Shuko socket which is provided, in addition to the usual Commando connection, which really helped.

The star of the show here is Cabo de Gata itself, which is an absolutely gorgeous haven in a region full of those ubiquitous poly tunnels. Once you\'ve arrived here on the north side of the national park there is not a piece of polythene or rubbish in sight. The mountains and hills are beautiful and carpeted in wild thyme and lavender, with many options for walking dogs on numerous pathways around the area, as well as the beach.

The restaurant is open in winter, and serves acceptable food, though the service can be a bit erratic. There is a rubbish and recycling area and the grey water is treated and re-used.

We came for a few days and stayed 2 weeks, and would definitely return to this site.

We stayed over Christmas. Lovely clean toilets and plenty of hot water. Good location and well worth a walk down to the village. There is a supermarket onsite but it is a little expensive. The bar/restaurant were very busy. The pitches are not huge but fine for our small motorhome. 1km to the beach. Staff lovely.

just left after 4 nights. new shower/toilet block, fantastic. all pitches quite small. we have 8m of caravan with bikes on rear and really struggled to get onto and off a pitch as many were closed due to works. also very close to our neighbours. however, the bar had happy hour from 6 to 7pm, great food especially the pizza and most nights, 2 great bar guys. Wed night not so good as bar mgr obviously did not want to be there, never smiled and put us off wanting to be there... the pool was brilliant. ignore the plastic coming in as once at site, the views, scenery, local walks to beaches and cycling to San Jose just excellent. a real gem of an area to visit.

Nice site. Good free Wi-Fi and staff very helpful and friendly. Restaurant food was good.

Only one comment. When will they get rid of the smell of drains in the toilet block? Everything else very positive.

A beautifully laid out site with each roadway with a decorative tile naming it after a beach. We were told the pool was cold, but we used the sun lounging area around it. We tried to walk to the beach but couldn\'t find our way down the network of rough paths (I had a stitched up knee). Los Escullos is a fascinating beach although it was very windy when we visited, it is quite coarse sand. Helpful staff.
