flyboyprowler Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Can anyone recommend a nice site for next weekend between Malaga and Gibraltar. Our van is 8.3 metres so we will need a large pitch. Many thanks, Ainsley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laimeduck Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 May be of interest to you? In 2017 we stayed at Parque Tropical ACSI just east of Estepona on the A7. 36.454025, -5.080753, http://www.campingparquetropical.com/ We are 7.3 metres and had no problems. It is a very well laid out and well run site, with friendly staff, but why it is there I have no idea? We did not like the Costa Del Sol at all, but had a very comfortable night here. We had come down from Olvera N of Ronda and were on our way to Cadiz. My diary entry will give you the flavour of our thoughts! "Then off to the site "Parque Tropical" a couple of miles further down the road. Nice little site - well run and landscaped with banana trees, ficus pumila (The fig tree in your lounge) bushes & palms - hence the tropical. However the physical location is crap! Right next to the main road - no restaurants/bars no obvious way to get to the beach? We took the "walk" to the beach through waste ground, then the A7 - the only way to cross the road is by walking through a storm drain under the road, then through a private estate to the beach. Had a little walk up the beach - a mid grey sandy beach, which is backed by mile upon mile of apartment blocks - lots of English accents from retirees, but basically deserted at this time of year. Looks like Costa del Sol not for us." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyboyprowler Posted February 4, 2019 Author Share Posted February 4, 2019 Thanks for the info, I have been in contact, and it appears there is now a restaurant on site. We are visiting friends in that area, hence the visit. If it is not nice then we will just move on, or cut short the visit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve H Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Take a look at Camping La Bella Vista near Manilva, about twelve miles from Gibraltar. It's owned by a Britsh company in the Lake District. It's overpriced but is in a good location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Steve, good site, and we have stayed there before, but ruling it out, as you say, as being too expensive and no ACSI discount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
