Very safe aire at the marina in Puerto Gelves 37.33937N; 6.02401W About 15 euros per night including electricity and showers. We have stayed three times - outside the gate is a bus to the historic centre every 15 minutes. Ideal for visiting the city.

We stopped at Area de Autocaravanas a few years back but can’t remember the cost. It’s a twenty minute stroll to the centre if I remember correctly.

Hi Pat

We stayed at that one last year. It is closer than Puerto Gelves and the same sort of price for the same facilities. However, we found it a lot noisier because it is a working port. You pays your money and you takes your choice.....

Plenty of places around Parque Jose Laquillo, 37.389523 -5.97710. short walk to city centre, great pub nearby, Bar Raimundo, but haven't stayed here for 5 years.

As mentioned, the marina aire at Puerto Guelves if you seek security, so secure that we couldn't drive out, we had to wait for a boater with an electronic tag to open the gate.

Bus stop to centre outside, when we were there, didn't realize that last bus back was at 8.30pm, missed it , ended up getting a cab 30 euros, ouch! things might have changed now.

Love your travel advise always makes us laugh, 30 euros bet the air was blue we like the sound of the Marina good for cat as well

Doesn't sound as though you are travelling with a dog ?
Always a problem in Spain , not allowed on public transport

This is the area near Parque Jose Laquillo, the bits in the red lines are OK for campervan parking.

we met up with lee/linda at the marina last year & used the bus outside to go around cathedral etc, first night spent so long socialising everyone forgot to cook had to use the excellent taps bar on the other side for a meal

Ken - I remember it well....

Penny - we have stayed at the Marina twice now. It's a lovely quiet area right next to the river with an excellent and friendly tapas bar. It is very secure in that the gate has to be opened by the marina master. There is a washing machine, shower, water and optional ehu.

The bus goes right into Seville on a circular route so you catch it where you get off...

Thanks Linda looking forward to our winter away mostly relaxing but I would like a look at this city as we pass.

I love Seville and spent a whole week there year before last. ( flight and cheap hotel)
If you like roman stuff there is a place just outside called Italicia, where Hadrian was born. Don't take the tour for about 25 eu, you can catch a bus for about 3. Really good with lots of mosaic floors.

Best time to visit Seville is during the April Feria, all the locals dress up in traditional garb & the town gets on the p1ss for a whole week.

I wouldn't argue with that but if you plan to go during the Feria or during Semana Santa you will have to book your place in the aire a long time in advance. Unfortunately, Puerto Gelves marina doesn't take bookings, which is why we ended up at the other, less pleasant, aire because it does.

Don't think anyone posted this one. Google Maps

Smack bang in the centre, walk everywhere and I think was 10 euros for the night. Secure, full of campervans, like 100+
