Campsite Navarrete Cat.1

We have stayed at this campsite on each of our visits to Spain as a good site when returning to the ferry either Santander or Bilbao an easy drive. There are quite a few really good bodegas selling fantastic Rioja but we always go to the cooperative bodega which is virtually across the road from the campsite. Reds and Roses are fantastic and amazingly cheap. Campsite bar is very pleasant but limited food choices. Pitches are a little small but we have always been told to use 2 pitches when not busy. Friendly and helpful site, looking forward to returning early June this year 2019

Site is in extremely poor condition.electric hook up appears very unsafe many caravans in very poor condition makes it look like a shanty town or gypsy camp. Would not stay here again.

As others have already mentioned, this site is full of static caravans, having said that, the showers are second to none that we have experienced whilst camping. Great water pressure and very clean.

On arrival at site we were met with a very nice & helpful receptionist, who also gave us local information in English. We ate in the bar and had a lovely meal and two drinks . A very friendly site with very clean facilities. WiFi is free at the bar. The bar is very up to date with a beautiful seating area for reading with books available to read/exchange,,. The road into town is straight and cycling friendly,, we plan on using our bikes,,you will require an adapter for the electricity, available at reception for deposit,,

Used this site as a stopover and it served that purpose well. Not sure if I would want to stay at busier time as there were many permanent pitches.

In the second year of new ownership the deterioration continues. the ACSI review is hopelessly out of date, there is no site maintenance, rubbish on pitches, dog and cat mess, grey water dumped on pitches, grey water drain blocked, tree branches hanging in pitches, poor electrics. No daily oversight or care. Surly cafe & Reception unhelpful. Tired showers. The site reflects the owners attitude to customers.

We chose this campsite for its proximity to Logrono and found it an easy 15 minute walk into Navarette to get the twice hourly bus. (Timetable on request from helpful reception staff). Campsite has a lovely swimming pool and loungers. Excellent, plentiful toilet/shower facilities. Campsite is mostly static caravans so would be very busy weekends.

we planned to spend 4 nights here on the way back to Bilbao but site was so poor left early the next morning. site is overcrowded with residential caravans. reception staff less than helpful. However the bar and the bar staff were very friendly and welcoming

Touring Caravan. The ACSI directions to Camping Navarrete were excellent. Friendly and efficient welcome. We stayed 7 nights for the price of 6 as a site deal with ACSI. Pitches were average in size but level and all had easy access to electric and water. Toilet, Washing up and Laundry facilities were excellent. Good BBQ area and good shops in nearby Navarrete. No supermarket, Pool, Food or Snack bar available in May. 90% of the site is seasonal pitches and the Friday, Saturday and Sunday will be busy with Spanish families in High Season. Navarrete is a good base to tour the La Rioja region and there are many Bodegas in the local area. Great dog walks in close proximity to the site. Navarrete is a handy base to reach either Santander or Bilbao Ferry ports approx 3 hours away and it has some good bars and restaurants too, There is a small market in the square near the Cathedral on a Wednesday every week. Large supermarkets are only 10 miles away in Logrono. Cycle and Walking routes are in abundance and Navarrete is on the Pilgrims Trail to Santiago de Compostela. Do visit the Cathedral and do have a Pilgrims set breakfast or lunch in the small restaurants nearby.

Happy to find the campsite open as other campers mentioned that sites further north were closed for the season. Easy going staff told us to pick any site for our tent. It was grassy and shady. Toilet block is large and clean. Situated in a nice area with the town close by and not far from the hwy.
