Spainish Hospitality

[CJRW42]

In a couple of weeks I will be setting off on my drive from here to Gibraltar.

I will drive through France & Spain. Places to stop in France seem plentiful (aires) but the Spanish part seems more sparse.

I am looking for any recommendations where to stop near Salamanca. I am not looking for a campsite just the equivilant of an Aires.

Martin Dorney has just hit Spain on his travels so I am following his blog to see if he stops anywhere near Salamanca.

Has anyone got any suggestions or experiences

Thanks.

Camp sites in inland Spain are few and far between where you are going so plan your journey carefully. I cannot advise as to campsites, but I suggest you check them out before you leave the UK. The last time I went this way the sites seemed to be about 200 miles apart.

Is this of any use?

Louey, you star

Just found a hotel that lets you kip out back for 13 euros a night.

Thank you.

Thanks Dave. Someone I know in Spain said that they were a lot more laid back about this (unlike over here) and as long as you did not look like you were making camp then you could go most places. But I am very happy to get your opinion.

Not sure if this might be a bit late? Or even something you've all seen already but

It's in Spanish but it's a pretty useful wildcamping site (that's website, not camping site... you get the drift!).
