Camping As Cancelas

Good spot for visiting Santiago de Compostella. Reservation recommended! If you don’t want a very small pitch, you should also arrive early in the day. Top sanitary facilities. Everything is very clean. Important note for trailer drivers: don’t navigate with Google Maps, it leads you over a road that has a gradient of about 16% at the end. My Multivan just managed to take the 2 tons of the caravan up, but you don’t want to experience that twice. Instead, head for Praia de Espania. Follow the signage from there. DO NOT drive over Avenida do Camiño Francés! On the campsite itself, it also goes steeply up again, but that is still doable.

The price in the NS for 2 people without electricity and camper is €62.00. So far, this is by far the most expensive spot since he has been here for 8 weeks. Shower houses partially closed. No discount for ADAC or Asia.

Very friendly staff at the reception. Tall trees, shade, tight but adequately sized parking spots, sanitary facilities are okay, costs are a bit higher but within the range of prices for tourist hotspots. Carrefour very close by, good bus connection with line 4 to the center.

Clean, with bus connections to the city (dogs are not allowed on the bus). Steep driveway.

The reception was very friendly and could speak several languages fluently. Special requests were taken into account - we had to leave early in the morning and the night watch was informed. We were given a spot near the exit to avoid disturbing other campers. The plots were rather small but sufficient. Sites were sheltered by a canopy of leaves. Sanitary facilities were adequately clean, with room for improvement. The city center is reachable on foot (about 2 km). Good bus connections available. Huge mall within 5 minutes walking distance. Conclusion: solid campsite for a city visit.

Sanitary facilities good, but relatively small spots. With our folding camper, we already had problems finding a sufficient parking space. But the staff were very friendly and helpful. The 2.9 km to the cathedral partly follows a Camino trail. For a visit to Santiago de Compostela, we would always return to this campsite!

I can agree with my predecessor, beautiful place, somewhat small plots, but ideal for city sightseeing. A large mall is also nearby. The toilets were very clean. Reception very friendly and helpful.

Good location on the slope. Quite steep. About 2 km from the cathedral. It is a hilly town. The plots are terraced and some are very small. Often, you just park between two trees with barely a meter of space on the left and right. There is free choice of spots. Due to the steepness of the area and the narrowness of the plots, you should choose your plot on foot in advance and not just drive in, especially not with long motorhomes or caravans. There is also hardly any turning space at the greywater area when all the plots are occupied. There are electrical points for every four plots. The sanitary facilities are new and nicely tiled. The toilets have seats, showers are sufficiently large, and there are one or two wash cabins per sanitation building. In the evening, many pilgrims arrive, and the check-in can take a while. Unfortunately, there are also parties in the area. At least on Saturday, there was loud music until deep in the night. This is a no-go and leads to deductions in the rating of the otherwise good site. Somewhat expensive. One person pays for one night with electricity in September 2021: 25.71 euros.
