We had managed our expectations on the basis of reviews before arriving at this campsite and were actually pleasantly surprised. Yes it is dated and could definitely do with a cash inject and some TLC, but it is brilliantly located and has a friendly relaxed vibe.
On arrival the checking-in process lacked warmth, detailed information and any structure, but being able to pick our own pitch offered us a seaview and unwinding to the sound of the waves. The downsides of our stay were roulette with the toilet/shower door locks and toilet paper. Also the marked out pitches were not adhered to by some campers and this was not enforced, meaning that our space was encroached upon. The nearby derelict chalets were also a bit of an eyesore.
On the more positive side, the bus service from the gate into Cascais or it's railway station is superb. Our dog was permitted on the bus if carried in a bag and the very low fare bought us a 24 hour bus ticket. Cascais is a beautiful town with a marina, fort, beaches and plenty to see, so it is well worth a visit!
The train service from Cascais to Lisbon was also sensibly priced and quick, with our dog this time allowed to travel in a muzzle.
The site's nearby Guincho beach is wild and beautiful and within a 15 minute walk.
