Our ferry home was at 14:00 on Sunday 12th September from Santander. Latest check-in is 45 minutes earlier but Mr. Cautious always likes to be two hours early, which gets us to 12:00. Santander is about a 2-hr drive from…

We ended our 2024 Spanish trip at Haro. It has a bona fide campsite that was recommended to us by a friend. The campsite is within easy walking distance of the small town where there is also a Mercadona supermarket,…

We stayed at the campsite in Burgos at the beginning of our 2024 trip to Spain, which was our first attempt at camping in Spain. Being newbies and with stories of campsites getting rammed over winter, we booked our stay…

Following Andy’s escorted tour, we have ended up at Baiona, just above Portugal’s northern border. We have a further two weeks footloose and fancy-free. One idea that Francine had was to head a bit further north into Galicia to a…

Since we were enjoying Baiona and the campsite, we wanted to stay on a little longer. It really was “a little” because sadly the site’s last day was Saturday as it was closing for the season. Nonetheless, we extended our…

Andy’s last stop of his escorted tour was Baiona, just above the northern border of Portugal, and it turned out to be the best of the lot, in our opinion. Saving the best for last, eh? Camping Bayona Playa is…
