LPG Cantabria Los Corrales de Buelna

[helles306]

Hi

Has anyone used the LPG at REPSOL garage Los Corrales de Buelna yet?
It apparently opened in September 2011 but the GPS notes given on the REPSOL site, when I checked on Google earth, did not match at all.

I know it takes Google earth some time to catch up so I wondered if anyone had any experience. It looks a good one since its just off the A67 south of Santander and would save time on the way to and from the ferry.

LPG near A67

Thanks very much for that Bruno. I'll check on Google. We're off on Sunday to Santander and hoping we can get over the mountains on Monday or maybe we'll have to stop in a services/small village along the way. Any recommenadtions? Forgot to say we're are aiming for Salamanca on our way to Portugal eventually.

stop over cantabria

Hi Bruno
I assume you mean Cabarceno, not Cabarcelo? Have checked with google and it looks a nice quiet place if we need to stay because of snow on the mountain route south.

Thanks very much for your help.

The parking is near a natural park (realy beautiful you can visit it with your RV 30 kms) entrance 14 euros / person you have more information here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cabarceno_Natural_Park
-if you have to much snow more hight you can have good time here

LPG on our trip to Portugal

Out of interest. The LPG at Los Corrales de Buelna was out of order last weekend when we came by to give it a try. The LPG at Salamanca was out of order also, so we had to buy petrol

However, the Services at Valdesolar Exit 564 of A66 at 39 23 2.5N, 6 20 53.4W had some and at 79cents was more expensive than Salamanca 72 cents, but at least the machine worked! There is plenty of room for any size vehicle at these services.
