Brand spanking new MoHo stop. All services including some pitches with shade. Free EHU if you can get a free plug from the Ds and Fs. Other services all foc. Near a swimming pool but a fair walk from the small town. The area is surounded by windmills.

Official stop and service post at the rear of fire station and next to old bull ring CP Donation requested for use of services. All functioning.

Beautiful picuresque town and castle. In later times converted into a bull ring. The official overnight parking has been moved to a lower parking level where there are just bins. Close by, about 4 km away there is a service stop.

744 Xarez Stone Circle

Day time parking for certain but doubtful if overnights would be permitted. No facilities. Well worth a visit. The stones have been relocated and they are next to newer Monastery.

The circle and he monastry. New Religion and the Ancient one

Nearby, another Monolith.

Sao Domingo Minas (PT) 740

A once thiving mining community. The first place in Portugal to have street lights. Further up the main street and opposite the church is a WC and showers block, apparently used by villagers who did not have home facilities. Now closed due to covid but perhaps they will re-open.

A mining village. Very interesting place, narrow streets. At the entrance to the village is a service bourne at the football club near the cafe.

Mertola IC27 (PT) 738

A walled town and impressive castle. Steep narrow road down to the river where here is permitted parking for MoHo. Tap and bin only. No other facilities. Very picturesque under the castle walls.

Alcoutim B IC27 (PT) 737

A service bourne just north of the town, located at a crossroads and behind a small hotel. Maybe they allow parking but didnt ask.

Alcoutim A N122/IC27 (PT) 736

A newly opened Camperstop, well nearly opened in September 2021. The service post was not finished and the EHUs not set up. Looks like it will be popular. Cost unknown. Office built but not open.

Laranjarias, Site of Roman Ruins. 735

Overlooking the river and said to be a trading post between north Africa and the local hill produce. Evidence also of Visigoth warehousing. Just parking and bins, no services and proberbly no overnights permitted.

Azinal N122 (PT) 734

Privately run Camperstop east of Odeleite on M1063. Slope up from main road. Pitches well spaced and level. Fantastic views. K7 MT, EHU. Price was $7 plus EHU.

Ameixia, EN2 north, (PT) 733

 Official MoHo site, populated by many frogs who seem to be full-timers.

The village is not far away, but seems to lack shops. There were a few bars.

There are foc facilities; showers, WC, tap, K7 MT in a manhole, and grey water dump platform surrounded by re-cycling bins.. No wonder the frogs are are here as the EHU are also FOC.
