Guest pelmetman Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Read some reviews about Bonterra park, which said that they weren't very welcoming to dogs8-) Admittedly they were a few years out of date and we note the site now boasts a dog shower:D Anyone been there with a pooch?..............................

PJay Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 We stayed at BP both this year and last. I don't recall seeing any dogs there, but I may be wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanmac Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Stayed there about 3 years ago with our dog -no problems. There used to be a track around part of the site at the back which was pretty rough ground and used it for "walkies. Site convenmient for town ,weekly market and beach. If they no longer allow dogs then there is an alternative site about 300yds Noirth. Sorry don't know if they allow pets but it is cheaper than Bonterra. Could use the road near river bed near the tower on beach usually a few vans there. Finally there is an "Aire" on the main road which bypasses the town centre. - but could be noisy there. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BGD Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Their current Spanish website says dogs ARE admitted (there is a daily charge for them!) EXCEPT in the months of July and August. Having had a quick gander at their prices, that's a damned expensive campsite! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike88 Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 There was a dog issue at Bonterra a few years back as non dog owners were complaining about the excrement around the site; it was everywhere and nobody cleaned it up. Then the pavements outside the site was covered with the stuff. Since then the site owners have emphasised the need for dog owners to act more responsibly and there is no longer a problem. Some dog owners felt the site was being unwelcoming but I don't think this was the case. An earlier post claimed the site is expensive. Not true as its in the ACSI book at 15 euros a night off peak.

Guest pelmetman Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Thanks for replies so far. Indeed the reviews we had read were from a number of years ago when people were saying how undog friendly it was. Seems as though things have improved somewhat on the dog front.If you book through the Caravan Club you can get the site for £9.92 a night if you stay between 14 and 20 nights which I didn't think was expensive, especially as it is within easy walking of beach and town and obviously the longer you stay the cheaper it becomes.If you know somewhere "BRUCE" in or around Benidorm that takes dogs and within an easy walk of shops, beach etc would you please let us know.Sue.

Rod Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 The caravan club prices in new winter escapes brochure for bonterra park are incorrect! Correct price for 14 nights is £17.32 ( I too thought we were in for a bargain until I rang them) It is still cheaper by ACSI Sorry to bring bad news!

I walked around the site last Autumn and it has improved in recent years. I stay across the road on the Villasol which does not permit dogs.

Rod The prices charged for a pitch booked by the C&CC are comparable with the rates charged the Caravan Club [slightly cheaper if you book a Rally pitch; don’t know how much one has to “join in” as we’ve never participated in one]. Do we know if the site will still be offering the ACSI discount in 2012? And do we know if the ACSI price will be the same? How early is the new ACSI brochure published?

Motorhometone Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 It appears that according to Bonterra park tarrif there is an additional charge per night for a motorcycle. I carry a scooter in my motorhome garage.I use this scooter on a daily basis. Does their tarrif mean a seperate visitor on a motorcycle or would it include my type of useage? Anyone have experience of this type of situation. Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peedee Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 I waas there at the beginning of this year with my dog and had no problems. The ACSI price of 15 euros a night includes a dog. You are given a key to the rear gate where you can take your dog for a walk, it used to be a rough track but is now a tarmac cycleway which runs between Benicassim and Orpesa. peedee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
