SIERRA ESPUNA Mercia SPAIN | Camping Sierra Espuna | A Long Narrow Road | Vlog 627

- We leave Camping Parque Tropical in Estepona after an 8 night stay and start the journey back along the south coast of Spain. We arranged for a one night stay at Camping Sierra Espuna in the hills and had quite an experience climbing the Sierra along the narrow twisting road. What a stunning place to stay, we would have loved another couple of nights there it was so beautiful and the people were so friendly.

Phew what a drive, lovely scenery
It was a fabulous drive with very few vehicles on the road and fabulous views. There were one or two places to pull over and take pictures. Once up in the National Park it was beautiful and so incredibly quiet 😃🚐 Trev
Campsite looks lovely! Glad you all enjoyed your holiday ,😊
We had a wonderful trip. Covered a lot of kilometres but it gave us a taste of different areas. We particularly wanted to visit Gibraltar 🙂👍🏻🚐 Trev
Yikes 😮I would’ve been holding my breath the whole way through those narrow streets! So nice of that man to give you an escort 👍 aside from the roads and tight spots, not a bad campground. Safe travels, my dear friends 🙏😊💕🤗👍
We loved this place. Yes the roads were tight but that was worth it. The air was fresh and the place was so quiet. But not in the bar where we had much chatting to do 😂 Thanks and take care 😃👍🏻🚐 Trev x
What an adventure! What a kind chap to help direct you 🏞🏕
It was abundantly clear that this small town was a very friendly community and they welcomed us crazy English tourists to their area. We both thanked the gentleman for guiding us. Thank you for watching 😃👍🏻🚐💙 Trev n Sue
Love the camp site ❤
It was a stunner. Pity we only had one night but now we know it’s there we can return 👍🏻🚐 Trev
Very nice landscape through the Sierra and beautiful views from the camping
Great video ❤ 👍
Wonderful place that we needed more time for. However, we now know where to head to next time 👍🏻🚐😃 Trev
For sure some narrow streets. But what a drive. Love seeing the towns and stuff. It’s like when we drive backroads just to see what we can see. I enjoyed it. I really love the little sites at the campground. Kind of quaint or something. I know I keep saying it, but what an awesome trip!
This place was so different to the previous areas we visited and the little town on the Sierra was so very Spanish and friendly. Such a shame we couldn’t stay for a few days and look around more. The old buildings and tiny streets were fascinating 😃🚐👍🏻💙 Trev
That road was testing 😮 Lovely views from the campsite though 😍
It’s lovely up there in the National Park area, definitely needed more time to explore and find the little village bakery and nearby monastery. One for the “go back to” list 😃🚐👍🏻 Trev
Hello Trev and Sue, lovely to see Sophie and Oscar, amazing drive. The campsite looked lovely very peaceful. The bird song was beautiful. Take care xx Julie and Tony xx
It was a stunning place and we can’t imagine what it would be like in summer. It’s on our “return to” list. Thanks for coming along with us 😃👍🏻🚐 Trev n Sue x
loving your vlogs and following your trip
Thank you Mark 👍🏻🚐💙 Trev n Sue
Hi Trev and Sue what a fabulous video enjoyed seeing the scenery which much have been amazing in reality it is quite something how green inland Spain is and like you have always found the people very friendly and helpful after a long drive must have been lovely to be somewhere so peaceful to relax and enjoy before a long journey back to Calais hope you are all well Daniel
Thank you Daniel, we wanted to stay longer but as usual, time caught up with us and we had to continue our journey. We found the quiet places so much more friendly than the busy tourist areas. Definitely suited us better. 😃🚐💙 Trev
What a gem of a campsite. It’s a stunning location and so peaceful. Definitely worth another visit for a little longer next time. 😊 best wishes H&M. 😊 xx
Totally agree, we loved it, right up our street and with so much more to offer than meets the eye, we will return to this one 😃🚐💙 Trev n Sue
Some demanding roads there trev what a drive and winding road site looks great and out the way quiet place too all the best donny
Although it was quite a demanding road, it was very enjoyable. The worry of not knowing if we were on the right road was overcome by the beauty of the drive. The campsite was fabulous too 🚐👍🏻😃 Trev
Great vlog 👍🏻
Katie & Gary
Thanks 😃👍🏻🚐 Trev
Used to be a lot of kumquat orchards around that way 25 years ago could be the the trees you saw 🤔 lovely looking site well worth the drive 😉
Stay Safe 😜👍
Ah that’s interesting 👍🏻🙂 Beautiful drive and such a quirky little place up there on the mountain 😃🚐👍🏻 Trev
Loved watching this vid. We were at this campsite in 2020 when Spain went into lockdown. Sadly we had to leave and journey back to the UK.
It’s a beautiful place. Shame your stay was cut short. Perhaps you can go back again in future 😃🚐👍🏻 Trev
What a stunning (if a bit scary) drive Trev and Sue.
The roads looked a bit hairy but so well worth getting to that beautiful place. That would be our sort of site I think.
We’re coming around to maybe doing a lot less of the coast next year and more inland
So tranquil and peaceful.
And a good price too with the ACSI card
Great vlog.
Have a good week ahead guys.
Yes, we found a few nice spots and the best were away from the coast. We avoided many of the tourist hot spots in favour of quieter places. No regrets at all 🙂👍🏻🚐 Trev
That does look a nice site, a shame you couldn't stay longer!
Great shame. Will go back in future to find the old monastery and explore the national Park more 😃🚐👍🏻 Trev
Wow so beautiful awesome sharing nice and beautiful driving beautiful way wow so beautiful country great sharing my friend 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷💯💯🇮🇳🇮🇳
Thank you for your lovely comments. We really appreciate them 👍🏻🚐💙😃 Trev n Sue
@@PoshcatsCamping you are most welcome my friend I am from Mumbai India 🎁🎁👈🏻🔔🔔👍🏻❤️🌷💯🇮🇳🇮🇳 please return my friend ❤️🌷💯
We know this site. Its a smashing area. If you go back come in from the North at Mula. Far better road. What you did miss and is a must see is the Monasterio la Santa, in fact now I think about it there is an aire just down from it. The monasterio is on the opposite side of the Sierra, west side. Large car park and utterly beautiful. Now you now Sierra means mountain when you came past the mountains with the snow on that is Sierra Nevada. Europe's most southerly ski resort. Great drive up. That aire by the way is listed under Totana and its Camperstop Sierra Espuna.
It’s definitely on our return to list. Much better than some of the coastal sites and areas. We have heard about the Monastery and will seek it out next time. Great tip about the route too, we have noted that. 👍🏻😃🚐 Trev
