Just returned from a fortnight at Cabo Mayor booked through Brittany Ferries. Hired a "bungalow" which was very basic but clean and adequately equipped- no television but that was a blessing. Staff are friendly, pool and bar are adequate. Camp shop provides basics . Views fro nearby lighthouse and bar are stunning as are those from walks around the bay.... More

Camp site was only a 10min drive from ferry terminal, easy to find (used google maps). We arrived without any reservation, it was the last week of July, and plenty of pitches available at top of site. The common car parking area is next to the pitch although it was on a higher level 2m wall. Pitches are on the... More

The Michelin map we bought on the ferry does not correctly show the access to this camping. Camping Cabo Mayor has a very obvious entrance on the Avenida del Faro, about 300 metres before the lighthouse. Use the free street plan available on the ferry and follow the Avenido del Faro off the map to the north. We went for... More

Unhelpful, unfriendly and disinterested staff, rip off prices. Supermarket empty and closed. Cleaner of toilets used same cloths to wipe basins that she used to wipe the toilet pans and urinals. Unfortunately, the latter were cleaned first. We would not recommend this site to anyone. It was a bad experience all round. The staff are very rude and unhelpful and... More

We were disappointed by this site despite its convenient location. There was no low season tarrif so we were charged the full rate although the supermarket and restaurant were closed. The showers were poor, with an inadequate flow of water and my husband had to try three of the toilets before finding one with a door which would close properly.... More

Santander is a most Spanish coastal resort, if you have been to the south spanish beach resorts you will be in for a pleasant surprise. The camp site is clean, large and has a 24hour office/security. Beatuiful sandy beaches and sea views are with 5 mins walk of the site
