Parque de Pernoita de Autocaravanas

Excelent location and facilities.

A well earned rest and stop, travelled up from The Algarve Coast , Vey Nice Place , two minutes from local sites excellent value ,

Wonderful area to visit, we visited in November. Very good motorhome parking for an amazing price 3€ which included water, electric and if lucky free WiFi. The staff were very friendly especially Gino. There is a small bar and swimming pool that is open in the season. The whole area is well worth a visit, looking forward to our next visit.

Great facility. There are 2 rows of motorhome parking areas, the ones next to the 2 service bays are 3 euro/day and include electric and local tap. These get busy quickly in season. There are also the Free pitches, opposite the bus parking, just the other side of the services, without electric or a adjacent tap. The service point is free to all.

Fantastic place. Good pitches, and super clean everywhere. Emptying and filling. And free. Short walk center og town.

A really good place to stay over night. Nice and friendly staff, well aranged and cheap. For € 3 you get water and electricity directly at the RV. Nice views over the river Douro. The only annoyancy is the traffic noice.

Payed parking (€3 per night at the local bar beside the swimming pool) on the upper level and free parking down beside the river. There are 2 payed parking areas. On the left side as you come down the hill has a security pole on each pitch and you get a key when you pay. These pitches have electricity and a fresh water tap. On the right side you have an electric point and NO water tap. You pay again for a key to the electric box. The free parking is not marked out and is slightly inclined which suited our shower drain. There is no shade. There are full free services. Electricity is only available on the payed pitches. The free to all services are on the upper level marked in yellow. In actual fact there are 2 bays side by side but only 1 working tap and 1 black WC drain. When I reversed in my motorhome the scooter rack on the back was very close to the ground so I had to stop short. The grey waste is a normal ground drain with good direction. The black WC drain is 300mm off the ground and is under a plastic cover. The drain is good and deep with no splashback. The cassette tap was not working so I had to use the fresh water tap. A 3/4 turn controls the pressure. The fresh water tap is NOT a screw-on connection. A special rubber connection is needed (see photo) or bucket/watering can. You may be able to get your hose pushed on as the diameter seems small enough. It's a 3/4 turn handle with good pressure. There are large bins on the road in the carpark. The local village is 1 minutes up the road with a couple of bars and restaurants to choose from. We had a menu do dia in Restaurante Manel da Aninhas over the railway track. Advise, ask for details of the meat dish as they have a very fatty pork fish on Wednesdays. The town of Peso da Régua is 1.5km down the river path where you will find shops, cafes and restaurants. Intermarche and Lidl are 35 minutes walk away down the river path. We had 2 quiet nights after the quad bikes stopped doing doughnuts and speeding up the roads just before midnight on the first night. There are clean working public toilets down from the free parking at the river slipway. There is a 2.5km river track which is great for joggers but not long enough for cyclists. There are no outdoor gyms which we have found in most towns. In the evenings cruise ships dock in the port. The river cruise costs €10 each. Bugs/Mosquitoes. (They love us..) We did not encounter any mosquitoes here.

For €3.00 this urban park up is simply great! Excellent river walk for us and our dog, fantastic bridge engineering to admire, some fine bars and cafes close by.
