Hi there,
It looks like a lovely place and yes I think the pricing on a lot of sites is confusing so I think your model is clearer.
I couldn't see any mention of dogs on your website, are they welcome and if so is there an additional charge?
We are hoping to be fulltiming before xmas and are still unsure where to go. Having visited Portugal a few times now it is somewhere I would like to go again in the motorhome having only been via plane so far. We would be interested in a month or so initially to calm down after the sale of the house etc. Your site looks lovely, best of luck.

Hi Carol
Because our land is tiered we can accommodate both tents and campers in different areas I didn't know how to present the full image of what we have here, because its so unique.
Thanks for your comments. What did you think to the rest of the site?
Regards
Jenny
Good morning Jenny
Sorry I went off to bed, so have been looking at it this morning..... please
I am looking at the web site itself.... and the camp site does look very nice and interesting.... a few comments on the content and design...
I do like the front page, and the ability to see those other photographs which last night I hadn't seen...
I would like some way of having scrolled down the page reading the content, to get back up or better still directly to the other page links, perhaps at the bottom, or a floating links bar that moves as you read..
Prices - you have none on your site...not good really, but that is perhaps thinking of your original email, you aren't sure if you have them pitched (sorry pun) at the right level.... I think they should be there, but one bit does look like it is missing - the pitch size.
Now I have only been down to Spain and Portugal once, in 2004, so I am not aware of the current costs, but I do recall all the different prices, and we had already booked with the C&CC for the holiday.... (I wonder if you had thought of contacting them to see if you could be included?) A lot of people in those winter months were staying a least a month - but in many cases some booked in for 6 months, (an even cheaper rate) which I seem to recall had been just about €5 incl electricity a day). But pitch sizes did come in to it a great deal, get a bigger one, pay a bit more.
I may have missed something somewhere, I saw the bit about the fact that you would pick people up from the airport, was this for those people for whom you stored their motorhomes? or do you have lodges?
Anyway, hope that helps, I wish you every luck and you might like to add a link to the motorhomefacts.com web site..... (why a web designer.... unless he put that there himself - it isn't anything to do with your business).
Who knows I may get down there, and we did go to Silves and to Monchique whilst we were there and we loved all that area it was really nice.... so it would be on my list as a visit.
Carol
As a PS - if you wish to join, as you only get 5 postings here for free - it is worth it, or you could always think about advertising your site on here.... and you could put yourself in the campsite database.... Just a thought

I have been following the threads that have resulted from my original posting above under the code name “riotorto” in which I enquired about winter camping in the Algarve so it came with great interest to see your reply. I actually live up the north of Portugal near the Spanish border at Valenca. We love it up here, everything is so cheap. My wife and I retired one year ago from the UK, and we brought our Compass Calypso campervan down in the hope of finding warmer parts in the winter down the South. This year we have done a lot of camping up in the North, some of the sites up here are fantastic and very cheap, in particular the municipal sites.
When you have worked out what your prices are can you please let me know what your all in rate would be for two people including electricity say for 30 days for either January or February?
How close your site to transport that is would take us to the closest big town.
We have no independent transport to make our own way anywhere once we have pitched our campervan and small awning up. How much does it cost to go by taxi into town if there is no bus service?
If we do come are we likely to be the only people down there, that is not a problem, the only problem being will all your services be shut off in particular the hot water for the shower and wash basin. We recently had a very bad experience in Chaves where they advertised full services and because we were the only person there they decided to turn the hot water off.
How close are you to the closest Lidl shop?
Are the pitches on grass, sand or gravel how much it costs to go by taxi into town if there is no bus service.
Will you have ordinary internet access like an internet café if we were to come down?
Incidentially we have our own web site
