I am hopeful that someone will know the answer to this one .....

We have a pitch booked at Camping Amfora in Spain in August.  I've noticed, on the UKCampsite listing, that campfires are allowed here. Does anyone have any experience of this, as I can't find anything on their website about campfires.  Do we need to take our own firepit etc?  Although, hopefully, the weather will be far too hot for campfires in August !

Many thanks,

Well, we went 3 years since, don,t recollect anybody having a campfire, would have thought too close to other folk and a real mixture of units , ie, tents caravans motorhomes on pitches , side by side, back to back. Are you sure  it just don,t mean barbques ?

Why would you want a campfire in August? It will be around 250C in the evenings?

Hi bedbug

No campfires are not allowed, gas bbq's are not even allowed if the weather is very dry and hot, which it is very often. Been there for the last 3 years and going again in July and have never seen a campfire.

Regards

We were there in June & July last year, and used a gas BBQ on several occasions, along with many others, who did likewise - BUT - we were parked in the "open" area at the bottom of the site,as opposed to the more densely foliaged area at the top of the site.

We have been in July and August for the last 3 years and have always used our Cadac, but the site does advertise that if they say the area is to dry then they will put a ban on the use of gas BBQ's, many sites have this in their "rules" and some have a blanket ban altogether.
