  • Dog-friendly site with a community feel in the Almeria province
  • A 15-minute drive from mountain villages and the closest beach
  • Bar-restaurant, swimming pool, bowling green and a small shop on site
With a bowling green, regular special nights in the bar-restaurant and a pool for paddles and late afternoon cocktails, there’s a community feel at Camping Los Gallardos in the Almeria province. With all those opportunities for relaxation on site, you’ll be set up nicely for adventure elsewhere, whether it’s kayaking and snorkelling around the coast, hiking or taking in the traditional way of life in the mountain villages of Mojácar (15 minutes’ drive), Bédar (15 minutes) or Lubrín (half an hour). Comfortable and modern are some of the words that might come to mind at this site. The place is divided up into a series of terraces with plenty of trees, shrubs and hedges, which make it feel nice and private. In the toilet and shower block, you’ll have hot water to look forward to after visits to beaches such as Playa de Mojácar (15 minutes’ drive). If it’s a small meal or snack that’s on your mind first, the on-site shop is open daily and sells necessities like fresh bread, eggs, milk, fresh fruit or veg and UK newspapers. With the site’s bar-restaurant (named Miraflores) for regular special nights and tasty meals across several menus, you won’t go hungry. Wifi is available in the restaurant, and there are further connections across the site. Other facilities on site include a laundry facility, washing-up sinks and a chemical point for toilets. If you’d like to try your hand at bowling, the site is also connected to a bowling green, where short-term memberships with access to bowling events are available for guests. On Tuesdays, the site (in conjunction with the town hall) also runs a free shuttle bus to the weekly market in Los Gallardos – so potter around in your free time. Golf courses are 10 to 15 minutes’ drive out for more peaceful activities.

Julianne S. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Electric optional hardstanding motorhome pitch

Liked: Although we booked a 'car park' stay, it was a lovely view top of the site looking over the mountains. Its surrounded by lovely palm trees, plants and flowers. The restaurant was well maintained and got served quick. The supermarket onsite is fantastic, well stocked, great selection of fresh food and meats etc.
Receptionist was very friendly and helped us with everything we needed.

Disliked: The shower toilet area, is clean and nice enough, although with only one other person in the shower, the pressure of the shower was very minimal, could be improved.

Fully-serviced gravel and earth pitch

Liked: Well organised with comprehensive facilities. Cafe, bar and supermarket well stocked and prices quite reasonable. Staff friendly and helpful. Couldn’t ask for any more.

Disliked: Very crowded and pitches right on top of each other. Maybe too many full timers on site.

Kevan S. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Fully-serviced gravel and earth pitch

Liked: Absolutely everything!

Disliked: Again, as with every site that we've used in the past 2 months, the long term/live in residents have ruined the site with their dishevelled & more often than not dirty awnings, assorted bikes, & other clutter. It's such a terrible shame to have to mention this as the site in itself is gorgeous. The restaurant/club house is wonderful, the pool looks fantastic & the site itself is well looked after.
