Camping Albera: Reviews
Positive experience:
Conveniently located transit spot in winter. The plots are not defined, divided over natural ground, and it gets quite dirty when it rains. The sanitary facilities are okay, even heated in winter.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience:
Rustic campsite, not far from the highway and quietly located on the edge of the village. Old but clean sanitary facilities, toilet paper required. At the reception, the lady also speaks some German.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience:
A great place while on the go. Everything you need is here, especially peace and quiet. We would love to come back.
Translated from Deutsch
Fantastic experience: Beautiful location, close to the highway and very close to the Spain/France border. You can choose your own spots. Stunning view of the Pyrenees. An absolute recommendation if you are just passing through, but staying a few extra nights is also definitely recommended. Sufficient sanitation, dated but very clean.
Positive experience:
Good overnight spot, unfortunately only 6 amps of electricity.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience: Beautiful camping...unfortunately no good WiFi.
Fantastic experience:
Very friendly reception, parking spaces can be chosen freely, which can be a bit overwhelming... Sanitary facilities clean and showers without coins! Be careful when hiking in the area, there are free-range herd protection dogs around!

Fantastic experience:
*Very nicely located campsite
*Very friendly reception at the front desk
*Spacious pitches with electricity
*Very quiet at night
The site is near the highway and is often used for through traffic. I can recommend the site unreservedly, even for longer stays.
Translated from Deutsch
Fantastic experience:
Very friendly and competent gentleman at the reception (speaks German). The parking spaces were freely selectable. Nicely laid out under tall trees. Electricity and water within reach. Highly recommended. The surroundings for cyclists and hikers are simply great. The nearby place is perfect for falling in love. I would visit again immediately.

Fantastic experience:
Beautiful quiet campground on our cycling tour in the low season. Clean, natural.
Translated from Deutsch
Fantastic experience: Friendly reception around 20:00 despite wanting to close, we only stayed one night 20/21-10-2024, a total of 2 people with camper and dog €24. The pool was empty, toilets and showers clean and with hot water. The spots are beautiful and large, everywhere in the campground there are nice viewpoints and stunning views of the mountains. We ate in the nearby village, at T fort, tip: maybe better to walk on to the next one.
Fantastic experience:
We stayed here for 1 night, we were passing through and don't like staying near the highway. We called just before 9 PM and were allowed to park in the lot by the reception, that is, in front of the barrier... because the camping had already closed. It cost us €20 for that night, and we were allowed to shower/use the sanitary facilities/everything the next day. We found it uncomplicated.
Translated from Deutsch
Fantastic experience: Great place, good hot water in the showers
Fantastic experience:
Quiet place, not far from the highway. Great for passing through with a camper van. Also no problem with a caravan.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience: Camping like it used to be, no boxes, paved streets, space around your tent or caravan, we find this a top place. Only the lack of bread service is a downside. The sanitary facilities are fine, hot water for washing dishes, neat! The price might be a bit high, at the coast we paid 18 euros with swimming pool and toilet paper. However, we will definitely come back to explore the area by bike.
Fantastic experience:
We were passing through and spent 1 night there. The campsite can be highly recommended. Very spacious, with fresh water on site. You can easily find a nice plot. We will definitely stop there again on our way home. Very friendly lady and man at the reception.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience:
The price-performance ratio is right for motorhomes and caravans of any size. Quiet place near the highway. Relaxed layout with good electricity and fish water supply. Large area = good chances of getting one. Suitable for dogs. Mostly level = leveling wedges not required.
☝️ No store, restaurant, etc.
☝️ We had very poor mobile network coverage (D1).
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience:
Toller Campingplatz
Here, in addition to plenty of pitches (not all with electricity), there is also sufficient space for large motorhomes. The sanitary facilities may be a bit dated, but they are clean and function with hot and cold water. However, you should stock up well on food and drinks. There is a restaurant, but it was closed during our stays in May 2023 and late September/early October 2023. In the village, which is about a 14-minute walk away, there is a small café with a small supermarket where you can get the essentials. Great opportunities to enjoy nature, whether hiking or biking, there is something for everyone here. The Wi-Fi, however, is not great; sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. This really needs to be improved. That's why only 4 stars, because you pay 6 euros for 2 days and don't even get one day of Wi-Fi. Nevertheless, we love this campsite; our dog is also delighted. He loves the walks and the relaxed time together at the campsite. We will definitely come back.

Positive experience: A good campsite to stay overnight while on the way, with spacious spots and clean bathrooms!
Positive experience:
Perfect camping to disconnect, relax, excellent service, we will return and 100% recommendation, no expectations.

Fantastic experience:
Very nice campsite for passing through. There is free choice of places and there is plenty of space. There are spots in the sun and with shade from trees. Sanitary facilities are okay. During my stay, it was very windy (storm gusts), so there are hardly any places to protect yourself from it.
Translated from Deutsch
Fantastic experience:
Organized campsite with a very nice reception. We were only there for 2 nights, but we can happily recommend the place.
Translated from Deutsch
Fantastic experience: We were here from September 6 to 8, what a lovely place! Nice cool pool, very friendly people, you can stay hooked up here, have a drink by the pool, a 10 from us, amazing!
Fantastic experience:
Simple but clean, with pool
Translated from Deutsch
Fantastic experience: Nice natural campsite. In high season, swimming pool open and terrace. In Albera, winery, a couple of nice restaurants, and a well-stocked neighborhood shop.
Positive experience:
Ideal stopping place. Sanitary facilities very old but clean.

Positive experience:
Well-located camping near the motorway, but quietly situated. Simple, well-maintained pool. The site is designed for transit guests, no Wi-Fi, cash only, clean washroom, small bar, no restaurant or supermarket. Pitches are a good size, mostly shady. The site should be reachable on foot. This place stays on our list for the next vacation.
Translated from Deutsch
Fantastic experience:
Nice camping site, with a pool. The restrooms are clean. Be prepared to pay in cash as there is no credit card facility. 10 minutes from Jonquera, ideal for stocking up on groceries before heading back to France. I recommend it.
Translated from French
Positive experience: We took a plot to build a house and it is very suitable for that. Clear communication, large plots, tavern and pool. The village is right there.
Fantastic experience:
Campsite for real campers. Look for a spot, soak in the relaxed atmosphere, enjoy the beautiful nature (you sleep among the vines). Enjoy the wonderful starry sky at night and walk to the nearby village for authentic food and regional wine. The sanitary facilities are, by the way, completely fine and clean.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience:
Naturbelassenen CP. Down below, a beautiful small Spanish village. Definitely worth seeing! A couple of super nights! Price okay. Dogs allowed.
Translated from Deutsch
Fantastic experience:
Rustic, very spacious plots with water and electricity. Beautiful and well-maintained pool. Clean bathrooms with hot water. Fair price. Very quiet environment, Highly recommended.
Translated from Italiano
Positive experience:
A typical overnight stop. In the middle of nowhere and with a beautiful view. Extra space expanded for large motorhomes, tents can stand under typical olive trees and oaks. Sanitary facilities are totally okay for the place. However, for the amenities it is rather expensive 30.95 for one person/car and with electricity.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience:
A bit remote from larger cities, right at the Franco-Spanish border, but with a very beautiful landscape and a lovely little village with everything you need. For nature lovers, it's certainly also very suitable for several days of relaxation and hiking/cycling. It also has a small pool area.
Translated from Deutsch
Fantastic experience:
Beautifully located in nature. Large selection of spots, whether in the shade or in the sun. I really enjoyed the lovely walks around with my dog.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience:
Uneven, sandy/gravel/mud pitches. Some more shady than others. Restrooms were generally clean and tidy (no toilet paper). Showers were hot. Water and electric hook-up for each pitch. Swimming pool needs attention (filtration/cleaning). Far too many bugs and wasps swimming around, but worse was the state of the poolside. It’s dirty!!!! The tiled flooring surrounding the pool is filthy. We had dirty feet when we walked across to our bench after a swim. Residue on our towel and bench. The pool is a good size though. Overpriced for what it is and what it provides compared to other campsites and camper parks we have stayed at.
Translated from French
Positive experience:
good camping for short stays. clean restrooms, no toilet paper, there are no trash cans throughout the camping site, only outside or inside the restrooms, if you go with a pet, it is normal to have more scattered in the camping areas.
Translated from Spanish
Positive experience:
Beautiful, quiet place for 1 night or even 2.
Translated from Deutsch
Fantastic experience:
Beautifully located and generously laid out campsite not far from the highway. Still very quiet and ideal for a stopover. Sanitary facilities are in good condition and very clean. We were there in the off-season, so there was no bread service. For us, the campsite is set as a stop on the way south.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience:
Very quiet location and yet not far from the highway and the border. Reception was very friendly. The lady was even nice enough to wait for me 10 minutes after closing time so I could check in. Simple but sufficiently good facilities for passing through. Very clean. Large pitches for motorhomes with trailers. Many trees and nature at the campsite, very nice. I would definitely visit again. Clear recommendation.
Translated from Deutsch
Fantastic experience:
Nice quiet place. We stayed here for 2 nights. Small stylish place within walking distance to small restaurants. Everything you need is here. We will gladly come back.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience:
The campsite is natural, so quite uneven. We found a somewhat decent spot. Unfortunately, the sanitary facilities are terrible in every respect. A big plus point is the hot water for showering. Okay for a night while passing through.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience: Good stopover camping with - if it's not too busy - spacious pitches. Disadvantage: the access road from the highway is quite narrow and winding in several places.
Fantastic experience:
Beautiful, quiet campsite in the cork oak forest. The sanitation facilities were good. The site is quite large and has pitches for almost any vehicle. We felt very comfortable here.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience: This is a very relaxed campsite close to the motorway, we’ve stayed here twice now on our travels between France and Spain. Reception is well organised with number plate recognition so all our details were saved from our previous visit and we were welcomed by name!! The shower block is dated but well equipped and has the most amazing water pressure, more hooks in the cubicle would be handy. The local village has a couple of bars and a small shop and is a short walk from the site. Overall it’s a very nice place.
Fantastic experience:
A wonderfully located and very quiet campsite near the picturesque and exceptionally well-maintained village of Capmany. Highly recommended. Many passersby due to the relative proximity to the highway (you can only hear it quietly in the distance, it didn’t bother us!). Large camping spots that can be freely chosen.
Wonderful hiking opportunities!
We were warmly welcomed at the reception. Since we supply ourselves with solar energy, we asked for a fully sunny spot - and we were perfectly advised!
The site is very clean, the restrooms a bit dated, but very clean! And wonderfully hot water for showering/washing and dishwashing. Modern washing machine available.
The on-site restaurant was closed, so we can’t say anything about that.
We felt very comfortable, extended our stay for a few days, and we will definitely come back!
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience: Nice camping for those passing through. The spots are large. However, due to the constant arrivals and departures, the campsite feels a bit like a parking lot. This creates some unrest. The reception is okay, the staff speaks several languages. But it feels a bit impersonal. The facilities are old but quite clean. Sometimes there is a sewage smell. The village is within walking distance and has a few restaurants that we did not try. Just outside the campsite is a nice playground fenced off so that children cannot easily wander onto the street. Worth mentioning is the shopping center 8 km away: Grand Jonquera. If you like shopping, this is the place to be. As noted in several reviews, the campsite is suitable for staying a few days and exploring the interesting surroundings. Just find a quiet corner in the campsite where not every day campers come and go.
Positive experience:
Quiet campsite in the mountains. Access is a bit narrow, but doable with a motorhome. Sanitary facilities are a bit older and not heated in winter.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience:
Transit campsite at the Spain/France border. Many spots also for large motorhomes. A bit muddy after some rain. Clean restrooms. Sites with 6kW and 10 kW. Price - mid-range.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience:
Good camping place for a stopover. Free woodland spots, facilities old, but clean and functional.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience: Good camping for stays/passing through, spacious sites. Maintenance of the plug/water points is desperately needed. In this day and age, charging 6 euros per computer/phone/laptop, etc. for WIFI is really not customer-friendly in 2024. Nowadays, it is very normal to be able to use WIFI for free at a campsite. Friendly staff, I can't say otherwise.
Positive experience:
Beautiful campsite, surrounded by cork oak forests, olive groves, and vineyards. There are many hiking trails, ideal for walks with dogs. The sanitary facilities are rather old-fashioned but clean, the showers have normal mixing taps and really hot water, which is very welcome now in March. There are pitches of all sizes, access is also possible for very large campers and trailers.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience:
This is really nice, after some comments I was skeptical, but this is a great place, the sanitary facilities (it's winter season) very clean, washing area very good. And the water really nice and warm. The pitches are very straight and of a pleasant size. As a surprise at check-in, I can speak Spanish, in the conversation a very kind switch to German from the lovely woman at the reception. Unfortunately, only one night, next time more.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience:
4 stars for the location. Unfortunately, the sanitary buildings are quite outdated, but clean. Free parking space selection, optionally with electricity.
Translated from Deutsch
Fantastic experience: Very suitable as an overnight camping site in Capmany near the Spanish/French border. Open all year round with Dutch owner and staff.
Fantastic experience:
A large place without plots. Everyone finds the right spot. The sanitary facilities need to be renewed. The reception is always nice. You need a bike or a car. Many dogs. It's not loud, even on New Year's Eve.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience:
Good transit place, clean sanitary area, however only reachable from the lower area by off-road. Large plots, water and electricity always nearby. Very quiet with a nice village nearby.
Translated from Deutsch
Fantastic experience: Super accessible camping with very friendly staff and top-notch facilities. And what a great location as a stopover from Southern Spain towards the Netherlands.
Positive experience:
Spacious place with everything that is important. Gastronomy seasonally reduced. Pool not in operation due to water scarcity. However, the sea is never more than 30 minutes by car. In the wine village of Capmany, there is a rich selection of restaurants (10 minutes on foot).
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience:
We arrived just before the campsite closed, but the lady at the reception was very nice and helpful. The campsite is often used at this time as a stopover, and we did that too. The sanitary facilities are very basic, but they were clean.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience:
Friendly reception, generous parking spaces. Points are deducted for the aging washroom and the lack of toilet paper in the restrooms. The light goes out after a few minutes while showering, leaving you in the dark. At night, the paths are not lit, so you have to use your phone to light the way if you don't want to break your bones while walking up to the washroom.
Translated from Deutsch
Fantastic experience:
Beautiful nature camping site.. without pitches. Sanitary facilities are aging but everything is clean. Very friendly reception. A few minutes walk to the village with narrow streets and a few shops. We were there for 2 days. We would gladly return as this place convinces with its peace and relaxation.
Translated from Deutsch
Fantastic experience:
Untreated nature. Very large. Places with/without trees. The medical supply store is tidy and clean, but small. No toilet paper. 800m away is a town with a café, restaurants, and small shops. Great for hiking, cycling (very hilly), and motocross. Great view of the mountains.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience: Nice little (well big really) campsite built on a hill. Good facilities and friendly staff. Nice walks around the back of the campsite and beyond if you want. Also a good cafe in town for that all important coffee and cake.
Fantastic experience:
Good, I recommend it....
Translated from Spanish
Fantastic experience: L'Albera in Capmany, Spain, is a typical transit campsite for camping tourists. Coming from France, this beautiful campground, located partly in the Pyrenees, is a welcome stopover before you continue deeper into Spain. Or suddenly, another world lies at your feet. Coming from the south, often on the way back home, Camping L'Albera embodies the last breath of Spain, allowing you to make the jump to France with extra ease. The campsite itself is a hilly gem with nice spacious pitches, friendly staff (also speaks Dutch), and clean sanitary facilities. Here you feel at home and empowered on your way forward. Most holidaymakers stay one night. A multi-day stay is recommended. With pleasure.
Positive experience:
Beautifully located and easy to access. There is little going on in the village and nothing to shop for, just wine! 26€/day in November, of which 6€ for electricity, 6 A, which is insufficient! The toilet houses... well, the usual in Spain, old and not in the best condition, in the ladies' showers the floor tiles are totally loose and sunken, some broken. Were the tiles laid here on bare ground??? However, hot water is sufficient. The cabin is on top of a hill and far from many places and poorly lit at night. (In Germany, this is unthinkable, but we love Spain!)
Translated from Deutsch
Fantastic experience:
Very nice reception, also German-speaking. The area is very spacious and also suitable for larger motorhomes. Electricity max. 6A. We were allowed to choose our own spot. We stayed for 2 nights. Very quiet except for barking dogs from outside. Fresh water directly at the spot. 2 disposal facilities only for gray water outside the gate at the entrance.

Positive experience:
Pleasant campsite, small village worth seeing

Positive experience:
I really liked the place! I wanted to stay for 3 days, but then I ended up staying for 7 days. Friendly and helpful lady at the reception. The spots are mostly quite large. Natural site in a very beautiful surroundings! The washhouse is somewhat older but clean and has great (hot) showers! I would gladly come back anytime!

Fantastic experience:
Friendly check-in. She speaks German, English, and of course Spanish. The campsite is well located, the village is reachable within a few minutes on foot.

Positive experience:
Nice staff, multilingual. Well located, there is fresh bread in the village. The showers are awful, many tiles are broken, some are rusty. The path to the showers is dangerously dark. As a transit place, it's well located.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience:
A large campsite located in a huge cork oak forest on the high plateau of Albers. Very friendly reception, some bungalows and many (for the first-time visitor) confusing pitches. Positive: all SP have 6 A electricity, a water & sewage supply. A short walk from the village, very quiet and picturesque. Sanitary facilities absolutely clean. A relaxing overnight spot with good wine from Capmany! Recommended!
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience: A nice campsite in nature, but we were disappointed that the pool has been closed for 2 weeks with a temperature of over 27 degrees. It is also not mentioned anywhere. The restaurant is also closed. The sanitary facilities look tidy and clean.
Fantastic experience: Good overnight stay at the camping along the highway. We are here for the 3rd time and are starting to appreciate this campsite more and more. The shopping paradise La Jonquera is nearby. Nice forested campsite with free site choice.
Fantastic experience:
Good place to park a motorhome right after entering Spain. The reception hours are until 18:30-19:00. If you're going to arrive later, call to inform them and they will open the bar for you. Pretty big pool. Next to the village of Capmany, which is very beautiful.
Translated from Spanish
Fantastic experience:
If you want absolute tranquility, this is your campsite. With water service, showers, pool, etc...
Translated from Catalan
Positive experience:
Camping quite large but very quiet, they let you choose your pitch (we were in low season), quite a few residents but very distant from each other.
The camping is very nice, no asphalt or concrete, very integrated, wild.
Correct services, nothing remarkable, no toilet paper, also does not have a restaurant (in high season I would say they open the bar).
We will have to return to explore the surroundings, it was a stopover camping.
Translated from Catalan
Fantastic experience:
Used as a transit station, but actually too good for that. Wonderful landscapes, quiet, the village is super beautiful, the place is idyllic. Tip, just go to the lower meadow, top!
Translated from Deutsch
Fantastic experience: Large campsite with beautiful spots. It feels like you're camping freely. A bit too few toilets if the campsite is full. While we were there, no problem. Stunning view of the Pyrenees.
Positive experience:
We stayed here for one night on our way back... It was a nice reception, you could choose the pitch, there was water and electricity at the pitch... The washroom was clean but simple... Which is not a big deal since the campsite is in a natural setting... Don't forget toilet paper, as you get used to it in most places... One point deducted for the price... Other places offer more for the money... Okay for one night...

Fantastic experience:
Super campsite, just a few kilometers behind the border to Perpignan. Friendly welcome and very nice pitches. Clean toilets, nice showers where you can also change the temperatures, which is not taken for granted!

Beautiful camping site. Large pitches also for transit visitors. Shade and with a view of the Pyrenees. Water and electricity at the site. With intentional card 22 euros.

Positive experience:
Nice campsite located away and quiet. We stayed one night on our way. German was even spoken at the reception. The sanitary facilities are a bit old but always clean for us. Trash disposal is only at the entrance. Electricity at the parking spots. Depending on the spot, the ground may be uneven. There's a small village nearby, but there's nothing there. Restaurant closed in the low season. For a stopover, we would come back.

Fantastic experience:
We were at the beautifully located campsite twice in the last semester for two days. Super friendly operator (they speak German). Sanitary facilities clean. On our next trip, this will definitely be our safest stop to Spain.

Fantastic experience:
Very nice campsite in the Pyrenees. We have used this place so far as a stopover on the way south and on the way back. The site is very easy to reach from the highway, has good facilities, and the staff is very friendly. The location invites you to stay here a few more days. We will gladly come back.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience:
Clean campsite, surrounded by beautiful scenery. The sanitary facilities are reasonably good, although one or two tiles need to be replaced. Showers and toilets are in one room, there is no toilet paper in the toilets. The path to the sanitary building, when using the stairs, is not entirely safe, as the stairs stop halfway and you have to continue over stones. Caution is advised. The lady at the reception is very friendly and also speaks German. The drive to the campsite is straightforward and well signposted.
Translated from Deutsch
Fantastic experience:
beautiful campsite with clean sanitary facilities and excellent showers. Many shady pitches. The night was very quiet, you can't hear any noise from the street at all. We were welcomed very kindly. You can also walk your dog nicely.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience: Nice campground. Clean restrooms. A bit isolated regarding shops, bakery, etc. The path to the restroom building is not suitable for people with limited mobility. Bring a flashlight, as there is no lighting to the restroom building.
Fantastic experience:
Very nice nature camping on the hillside of Capmany, easily reachable from the highway, also accessible with large motorhomes, would love to come back again.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience:
As an overnight place it is completely sufficient, but I wouldn't vacation here as there are nicer places, although in Spain you have to be lucky to get a nice spot. After a 7-month trip around Spain, we can say that Spain is beautiful, but no more. There were only the really good ones. The place here is tidy and clean. Parking space in the woods and meadow under the trees. Toilets available, all in one room. Shower on the left, toilet on the right, that's where the fun begins.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience: We arrived on 25/1-2023 and transit to southern Spain and stayed for 4 nights. A very pleasant stay, lovely nature and sweet staff. The toilets and showers are not heated and there is no toilet paper, but the water in the showers is nicely warm and there is plenty of it. The place is nice where we are, and there is water at all outlets. Small town within walking distance with fine restaurants. We will definitely come back.
Positive experience: I have been here several times while passing through. Usually, we stay a couple of nights. Beautiful surroundings, relaxing. Capmany is a nice village within walking distance. The restrooms are fine. Great shower, a hook for clothes would be appropriate. No toilet paper, which is a shame. In winter, it’s not heated, I believe. Poor lighting at the campsite. But despite these downsides, it is a pleasure to unwind for a while.
Positive experience:
January 2023/2025 (Trailer: 15.50 Length/Width 2.50m)
As a stopover place before and after passing through France, very pleasant. Water/electricity at the site.
Access to the campsite: challenging (slope/narrow road) Access to the pitch: Unevenness, drive carefully
No ventilated/heated showers. Toilets/showers in one room. Update from 06.01.2025: No toilet paper and the possibility to dry hands.

Fantastic experience:
Very good stop on the La Jonquera/Barcelona axis. (10 km south of La Jonquera, Exit 2). ACSI card accepted. Large electrified pitches. No need to unhook the trailer.
Translated from French
Positive experience:
The reception was very nice and helpful. We were able to choose the spot - the access to the spots is quite uneven, you have to drive very slowly. The sanitary facilities are unfortunately not heated in winter. The water in the shower was very hot, though. In the village, we ate very well at the restaurant Cal Ferrer, we can recommend it.

Fantastic experience: Bezoek eind november 2022. Prima camping, niet alleen voor doorreis, maar ook om de omgeving te bezoeken. Goed en schoon sanitair. Kijk even rond, sommige plekken hebben mooi uitzicht. Heerlijk dat je zelf kunt bepalen waar je wilt staan, wat past. Wil je er op uit: Dali museum in Figueres (in vm Theater) Cadaques, dorp aan zee (mooie rit) Port Lligat, woonhuis en atelier Dali. Navata, schitterende golfbaan Pubol, kasteel van Salvador Dali
Fantastic experience:
It has nothing extraordinary, it is wild, simple bathrooms, they clean them once a day. It has a pool, but it is empty, the restaurant is closed, poorly lit, extremely quiet, just what we were looking for for three days of disconnection. A stopover camping, we have seen that the caravans, ACS and campers... have only stayed one night. Price with ACSI card €20, expensive compared to other better-equipped campgrounds.
Translated from Spanish
Positive experience:
The CP has a nice location in a small wine village. The facility is simple, well-kept, and clean. Also regarding the sanitary facilities, which have aged a bit. The seasonal pool operation unfortunately only runs from early June to the end of September. Here it would definitely be better from May to the end of October! The small bistro by the pool is also fine. There are small snacks and drinks available. If you rent a mobile home, the parking situation could be better organized, as an extra charge is applied for parking. It would be appropriate to have a free parking option directly at the mobile home, especially since this would be possible. Additionally, a free parking option could be offered to car travelers in the area in front of the campsite entrance, which is not desired by the operator. A better Wi-Fi coverage throughout the site would also be desirable, which unfortunately did not work for us. It should be standard in today's times.

Transit spot ... almost directly on the A9, AP7, N15 highway. The site is well-located in terms of scenery. The pitches are large with electricity and water. The sanitary facilities are clean but very dated. The operators are very friendly and speak German. Shopping can only be done in the village. The site is mainly used as a transit/resting spot for continuing south or north.

Positive experience:
We spent a night while passing through with our caravan at the campsite. Let's start with the arrival, it is not a highway but definitely manageable even for less experienced caravan drivers. Our setup is 12m long and this is only the third time we are traveling with the caravan. Everything is manageable. The site is definitely basic, but the reception was friendly, it was quiet at night, and the sanitary facilities were basic but clean. We have experienced very different things at some campsites in Italy. We would choose this site again for a stop.

Positive experience:
We were here for 2 nights on our way south. Restrooms not heated but quite clean, no restaurant on site.

Fantastic experience:
Super nice medium-sized area nestled in the mountains. Easy to find sunny and shady spots with water and power connections. A small, very, very cute village nearby with a grocery store. You can get everything for daily needs. You must definitely visit the quaint local specialty shops for delicacies like wine, spirits, and olives. The sanitary facilities are clean. The water is very hot.
You can take a great walk around the whole area. It's also great for dog owners. However, unfortunately, there are many who simply leave their pets' waste behind. So you have to be careful where you step. It really shouldn't be this way! Right in front of the entrance to the area are the trash containers.
Unfortunately, we were only here for one night as a stopover, but we are already sure that on our next trip south it will be for more nights.

Positive experience:
Simple and natural place. Clean and functional sanitary facilities. The path to the toilets is adventurous at night.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience:
Pleasant nature campsite with large, not really level pitches. The relatively high price, even with ACSI, is likely due to the nearby border. For the price, we had already stayed at places with swimming pools, etc. The sanitary facilities are good and clean. Only one washing machine without dryer. The small village is surprisingly interesting with some wine bars and good restaurants.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience: Nice campsite when it's dry. When it rains, everything becomes very muddy and dirty. The lighting in the evening and at night is extremely poor. The toilet/shower building is almost impossible to find in the dark. Since the paths are not paved and are full of stones, it is also dangerous. Something really needs to be done about this. Therefore, I find the price-quality ratio not good. The campsite is too expensive for what is offered.
Fantastic experience:
A fantastic place, wonderfully located, close to the highway yet very quiet. Always happy to return.

Fantastic experience: Very quiet, back to nature kind of place. Lovely country walks and fresh air. Nice place to stop and recharge batteries before continuing your journey. Easy to get to. Really nice hot showers. We're here out of season, so pool and restaurant are closed but the pool looks nice and large.
Fantastic experience: Great stopover site if you're ready for a break after travelling across France, it's just into Spain. Nice facilities and spacious pitches.
Fantastic experience: I have been there 6 out of 7 times, but it remains a lovely place to be. Nice village within walking distance with 2 dining options and a small shop, not to mention a delightful winery.
Positive experience:
Camping open 24 h. all year round. With very spacious and varied pitches (with shade or sun, with views or surrounded by trees, dirt or grass, solitary or 'busy', isolated or 'central'). 10 minutes walk from the village (Campmany: very beautiful to visit) in an idyllic setting for walking or biking. Very close to La Jonquera or Figueres. The restaurant was closed, and there was no shop. All indications in 4 languages: Spanish, English, French, and German.

Positive experience:
Older couple passing through. Very nice and quiet campsite in nature. Ideal as a stopover for the journey to Spain. Very friendly, uncomplicated, and multilingual reception. Everything very clean and in good condition. Pitch can be chosen by yourself. Nice small pool for a welcome refreshment. Restaurant could not be assessed, as it was already closed in mid-September. Very good value for money.

Fantastic experience: Very friendly owner, no afternoon closing. Luxury pool with a small bar. Nice and clean restrooms. Sufficient water points. WiFi works well. Beautiful view. We have been there several times.

Beautiful campsite in the mountains. Ideal for a stop on the way to Spain or back home as it is near the highway just behind the border on the Spanish side. Good sanitary facilities and disposal. Beautiful sunset. Nice terrain, large plots. Would love to come back!

A very nice campsite, the pitches are not so aligned, a bit winding, very pleasant. We only wanted to stay one night, but it will be a slightly longer stay.

The place is located in the greenery and you can hike beautifully. Large areas with grass. Water and electricity available. There are only 4 stars because, although very clean, the sanitary building is aging. Otherwise, we were very satisfied.

Camping close to the highway. Very friendly staff. Location with or without trees, water, and 6-amp electricity. Typical village small but nice to visit. Some restaurants and a tasting room.
Translated from French
Positive experience:
The place is well located in a scenic area. The pitches are large with electricity and water. The sanitary facilities are clean but very outdated. The operators are very friendly and speak German. Unfortunately, the restaurant is currently closed. You can only shop in the village. The place is mainly used as a rest area for continuing the journey south or north.

Positive experience:
Nice place, friendly information and good prices. The toilets and showers are old and look very shabby from the outside, but they are very clean.
Translated from Deutsch
Positive experience:
We only used the place as a stopover. I can't imagine a longer stay because of the remoteness with the motorhome. The sanitary building at the back of the site has seen better days. The staff at the reception were very nice. The site is also very quiet. We will gladly continue to use it for stopovers.

Excellent camping, very quiet, semi-free camping. The pool is large and very pleasant. There are interesting paths to explore nearby.

Positive experience:
The place is a bit secluded, very quiet at night, has a pool. But it is in a good spot to see the area. The bungalows are very nice, the only downside is that there were ants and you have to be careful not to leave food on the countertops. The employees are friendly and everything is quite clean.
Translated from Spanish
Fantastic experience:
The place is a dream! Idyllically quiet and not overcrowded despite the high season. The parking spots are not marked. The sanitary facilities are clean and the showers work excellently! At the reception, there is a very nice, friendly person. We are staying longer than the planned three days. You can eat delicious food in the village in the shade of the fort.
Translated from Deutsch
Fantastic experience: Lovely campsite in the middle of nature nearby a small and beautiful village with a little local bar and supermarket and some restaurants. A great spot for a nice stroll. Camp among the cork oak trees. The site has got sandy paths (thank God no asphalt) and a very well equipped and clean bathhouse. If you're into the quietness of nature and nice people, have a stop here. Jump in the cool pool and sip a glass of wine or soda in the evening whilst looking at the Pyrenees getting dark.
Fantastic experience: Beautiful rural campsite with surprisingly good sanitary facilities and spacious camper pitches. We arrived later and after we reported via the bell at the barrier, it was nicely opened for us; payment could be made the next morning. The surroundings are really great, whether you want to stay long or just for a single night, I would do it again. There is a nice pool available and for people who love nature, they can enjoy themselves. The showers are a real pleasure compared to many other campsites we have been to; they are always clean, and you can shower without having to press a button repeatedly. The dishwashing facilities are also equipped with hot water, very pleasant. The peace you find here is really lovely. Recommended! Oh yes, the parking owner also speaks Dutch.
Positive experience:
Camping near the border with the necessary services.

Positive experience:
Beautiful location at the foot of the Pyrenees, but the site facilities are old and not particularly clean. No paper or soap in the toilets, lighting and water fittings in the sanitary area are poorly adjusted.
Electricity of 6A is included, which is basically not a problem, if there weren’t spots that only have a 10A connection for an additional charge. The box states: '10A, €2.75 Extra'. This creates a bad mood, especially when the next regular power boxes are over 40m away. If no one is going to check, then one might as well leave it and offer 10 or 6A everywhere. Those who are self-sufficient will not be bothered by it. All in all, an acceptable stopover place on the way home (open year-round).

Positive experience:
It is a quiet campsite in the mountains. Riding a bike goes up a lot. The area is very large and you can choose a spot under the trees. The facility has a pool which is very nice. In the restaurant, you can drink beverages, but not eat anything. With the beer, there are tapas. The price for a tent for two people and two bikes was 20 euros on the first day and 27 euros on the second, supposedly due to season. The restrooms are clean and there is a hot shower. People with tents in the back area may experience wild boars appearing at night.
