Camping El Greco

On the bank of the Tagus, with Toledo opposite

Camping El Greco is at km 0.7 of the CM-4000 road, the one that leaves Toledo for La Puebla de Montalbán, on the bank of the Tagus and with views of the historic old town. Shortly after leaving the city you have it on your right. The campsite itself places most of Toledo's points of interest within a 5 km radius, and the Puy du Fou España park about 8 km away. It is the way to sleep next to Toledo with a tent, caravan or motorhome, and a cheaper alternative to an old-town hotel for families.

Hedged pitches and a free-camping area

The pitches are individual, spacious and separated by hedges, with an electric hook-up, for a tent, car or caravan. There is also a free camping area divided into shaded plots. For motorhomes there is a chemical toilet emptying point. The website does not give the number or size of the pitches: if you are travelling with a large vehicle, ask.

Four bungalows

It has four fully equipped wooden bungalows, with air conditioning and heating, full bathroom, kitchen and living room. There are few: if you want them for a long weekend or summer, book early on its website.

Pool with a view and restaurant

The pool looks onto the city. There is a restaurant and café with its own menu, which also hosts weddings, a playground, washing machine and dryer, free wifi, sinks, hot showers and heated toilets. The website does not publish the pool's opening dates or the restaurant's hours.

Getting to the city without a car

At reception they give you maps, city bus timetables and tourist information: that saves you looking for somewhere to put the car inside the wall. If you prefer to use the car, leave it in one of the free car parks outside and go up by the escalators. For the first view of the city, the Valle viewpoint is on the other side of the river; and in the old town, the zipline over the Tagus, which the campsite advertises as the longest in Europe in a city.

The website does not publish prices outside its booking system, nor check-in and check-out times or its animal policy: ask on 925 220 090.
