This would be our final week at Camping La Rosaleda in Conil. The weather has not improved and the forecast shows no signs of improvement whatsoever. Just lots of rain and cool temperatures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We decided we will head off today. We took down the awning last weekend during a morning of dry and sunny weather and that proved to be a good decision. Not only did it rain later that day but there were very strong winds, in excess of 60 mph.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We hit the bar on Sunday for Ester’s leaving do. She has been a terrific asset to the campsite and its guests and she will be sorely missed. We make a snap decision last night that we will leave today and don’t have the time to say Cheerio to everyone. Just as well perhaps as the number of Covid cases at the site is ticking up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have a relatively early start and a 300 mile drive ahead of us to the National Park in Extremadura – Monfrague National park. We are on the road just before 09:00 and have a smooth and quiet journey to Plasencia, arriving at the campsite around 3:45pm<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The campsite is somewhat ramshackle and we are told to find ourselves a pitch and no need to advise reception where it is. The pitches are of poor quality, not very level and right now, extremely muddy. We find ourselves a plot on the edge of the site on a sloping but relatively dry pitch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We manage to forage for some concrete blocks to level the outfit and we settle down to our first night at Camping Monfrague.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The toilet and washing facilities are clean, functional but somewhat brutal with regards to aesthetics!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
