Our first camping in Spain - I would return, but I would change the plot we had the first time!

First, the positives, Absolutely lovely people running the site and attached bar/restaurant - wonderfully friendly and helpful. Location is amazing with spectacular views. The facilities were good, kept clean and not overcrowded - quite modern too - with 2 separate "blocks" providing service to the two ends of the site. The on-site shop was good and well stocked - and not too expensive. The Bar/Restaurant served nice drink and a good (slightly limited) menu - more good "pub grub" than restaurant I would say.

My only issue was the pitch - and to be fair we choose it ourselves online before we arrived - D32. It was slightly too small for both our tent and Gazebo to sit comfortably on - which are both circular and trying to fit on a rectangular pitch - but this was the first time this has happened to us when camping. Secondly, because the weather had been so dry and hot, when it rained, the pitch became a clay mud-bath - it was squishy under the tent for a week.... Ironically we had chosen D11 on the opposite side for our first night - and that would have been a perfect - size and dryness - pitch :)

Finally, the beach is amazing, but accessing it is very challenging - the path is overgrown and very steep - and not very clear. when you get there, octopus spotting is a must and is great fun - we saw 4-5 at least - including one "walking" along the flysh from pool to pool :)

Overall, really positive and I would go back - really good location to go to Bilbao and San Sebastian and Haro - perfect triangle for culture, food and wine - just choose your pitch wisely!
