Match your choice to your party: with young children a pool, entertainment and a fenced play area are welcome, while for peace you're better off at a smaller or more secluded site. Travelling with a dog, check the pet policy in advance.

Which amenities should you check?

Before you book, it pays to compare amenities. In Coimbra the key ones are clean sanitary facilities and hot showers, Wi-Fi, a restaurant or shop, and for families a pool with paddling area, playground and entertainment. Every detail page shows what's there.

Consider the kind of pitch too. A spacious comfort pitch with its own sanitary facilities adds convenience at a higher price, while a nature pitch is cheaper and quieter. For motorhomes, a service point and enough power matter.

When is the best time to visit Coimbra?

Most sites in Coimbra open from spring to autumn. Expect the biggest crowds, warmest weather and highest rates in July and August; book well ahead then.

For peace and lower prices, May, June and September are ideal. The weather is often still pleasant, nature is at its best and you have more choice of pitches.
