New ‘farm stay’ initiative in Portugal

[BreweryDave]

A new solution for motorhomers in Portugal

Do you have a motorhome? EasyCamp is a good opportunity to explore a local farmer's land and stay overnight.

I like it !

Thanks for the heads up, looks ideal for our type of stopover.

Looks like britsops/ France passion. I think I would tend to just phone a winery and ask most in France are perfectly happy without any membership.

after a three month tour youll be able to open an olive oil shop

What a great concept

 

[glenn2926]

I do like it in principle but would prefer it if it was extended to include restaurants and bars. As we do like to eat out most if not every night whilst away.

All their locations are available on Search for Sites.

Looks great, a wide variety of price points and I like the idea you book your spot in advance so you are definitely going to have a spot. Nice to put back in to the local economy as well.

If I went on a vineyard I’d never leave because I’d be too pissed to drive off…

Not unlike France passion without a yearly subscription.. I would use this service when touring just like we use FP.

I've posted this before but I'll pop it on here.

Gamping (not Glamping). Some places can take motorhomes. This is from Areas AC.

Looks like a really good scheme, its a shame that you cant view as a list/spreadsheet, showing facilities (if any), cost and details of the 'gift package'.

as an example, we wouldnt be interested in soft cheeses but would be interested in wines ,,,, but the only way to find out who does what is to click on each individual location.

great post by the OP, thanks !

You can filter on their website… for instance select winery

We stayed at Quinta Monteiro de Matos near Santarem last year which is one of the Easy Camp sites. Super friendly hosts and really nice wine Hook up included at this location as well.

 

[HugoBNB]

We are off there on Monday. Many thanks to OP for sharing this info.

Ok, will look out for you if we are in that area

 

[lamyj]

Thank you for the tip - we are heading over to Portugal in September for 1st time and will certainly be using Easy Camp sites
One way of seeing the beauty of the Country

 

[NPlusM]

Yes we used Easy Camp Portugal last September around the Duro valley area, they are excellent.
Very useful as not to many places to stay in North East Portugal

 

[PG]

I am planning a trip to Portugal so I will take the time to contact easycamp to get more info, mainly reogs, once we have an idea where abouts we want to be because some of the campsites in Portugal leave a bit to be desired and any alternatives are welcome.
