Camping Berceo

Camping Berceo is a four-star campsite of more than 30 years' standing, on the edge of the village of Berceo, at the foot of San Lorenzo, the highest mountain in La Rioja. From the gate you can walk to the monasteries of Yuso and Suso in under 10 minutes, and to the four villages around in about five. It is the way to sleep in the San Millán valley with children, with a dog or with a motorhome.

Wooden bungalows for five

The bungalows are wooden and come equipped: living room with kitchen, two bedrooms, bathroom and toilet, and a terrace. They sleep up to five and parking is included. In low season they cost €88 a night for two, €98 for three, €108 for four and €118 for five; in mid season, €92, €102, €112 and €122; in high season, €97, €107, €117 and €127. A dog pays €6, €7 or €8 per night depending on the season. Long stays are discounted: 5% for more than 10 nights and 10% for more than 20 in low and mid season, and 5% for more than 15 in high season.

Grass pitches between hedges

The pitches are grassy, large and separated by hedges, with shade in summer; there are extra-large ones for groups. They suit a tent, caravan, motorhome or camper. The standard costs €16 a night and includes the car with the caravan, tent or motorhome; the premium, €26, with electricity included. People are added on top: €7 per adult and €6 per child under 10. A one-off electricity hook-up costs €6.60 and a dog €3.50 per night. For more than 15 nights there is a 10% discount, and for more than 30, 15%.

A 25-metre pool, a supermarket and caparrones

It has a 25-metre pool and another for the little ones, with grass around them, a playground, a basketball hoop, table tennis, table football, a volleyball court and a football pitch. For day-to-day needs there are showers, toilets, an adapted bathroom with shower, sinks, a laundry, a small supermarket, gas sales, a barbecue area and chemical toilet emptying and water filling for motorhomes.

The campsite bar-restaurant has a terrace and home-style Riojan cooking, with dishes such as caparrones, and in the evening also combination plates and sandwiches.

On foot to Yuso and the poet's village

The campsite is in the El Molino area, in Berceo. On foot you reach the Yuso monastery, where you also catch the authorised vehicle that goes up to Suso, and the village centre of Berceo, the village of Gonzalo de Berceo.
