You wish?Suffolk ?
)True, I can see this happening too here in Spain, there are many newish camperstops springing up, either private or public, the demand might even be increased due to the new regulations imposed down your way and also here...One council has already approached the government to cut the bureaucracy in planning and building aires
You are asking a question? Or making a statement?.....Is that where you are parked up, have you had any problems...
Couldnt agree more -keep it simple. All we require is a bit of space in a convenient/nice location, If people want/need more they should be on a campsite IMO.
Seen that too, motorhomers don't understand the difference between campsites and Camperstops, have experienced this first hand when involved in the building and running of one....also poor management is a key factor....knowing the rules too...the whole system needs a makeover...new laws, new restrictions, less motorhomes more publicity in how we should conduct ourselves while visiting other countries...
You are correct, there are too many motorhomes now, even 10 years there were less people but then those who were doing it were foolish enough to tell friends and family ( we all did it) and put photos on facebook of the wonderful places we were staying and it was costing next to nothing etc etc - but they missed out the etiquette bit
As far as I am aware the Barragems are no different to anywhere else, if not authorised then not allowed.

Plus their population is very very small,,BUSBY..
It is but an incredible amount of motorhomes in the season. and a big problem with gap year types in people carriers with the seats down, some of these getting some big fines ($200??) off the park wardens
The way the law looks at the moment, unless it is signed as a motorhome parking area you would be breaking the law!!! This is a real disaster as they host so many Van's and they are out of everyone's way------ we are hoping that like Odimera(?) Enough pressure is put on government to fast track authorisation of new basic Aires'------- but they will probably all have to have at least water and dump facilities as the unauthorised waste dumping is supposed to be the main reason for this new law.
This seems very up to date, it includes the new one just outside Armacao de Pera which only opened last summerLynne found this site it’s a list of the legal aires /sites on the Algarve

I agree Dave it’s run by a motorhome group Lynne found it last yearThis seems very up to date, it includes the new one just outside Armacao de Pera which only opened last summer
No idea but if you read there main page ii states they only list the aires that have a licence and you can overnight there
As I said above I have no idea how it worksThe one at Castro Marim has been open for a number of years, it is signposted with a sign for motorhomes and a no waiting sign for anything else.

Don't know how to do screenshots, hope the links work I know the one you mean I’ve stayed on it
I would feel the same I’m sure we will get a list at some point
Would find it highly unlikely if an individual was fined for staying on an unlicensed Camperstop...however the owner of such a place might be....has been...and continue to be fined, cautioned or shut down due to operating without the correct paperwork...
It’s true.
