Does anyone know of any Motorhome (second-hand) dealers around the Seville/Cordoba/Huelva/Badajoz area?

Thanks

Karen

Don't know any dealers but know of this Second Hand popular web site with ideas for Segundo Mano Caravanas in Sevilla area. http://www.segundamano.es

I´m pretty sure there´s a motorhome dealer right beside the motorway to Sevilla airport (from the Sevilla direction).

Many thanks for the replies.

Hillybilly - can you give me a bit more info on the one towards the airport as we´ve been that way a few times (from huelva direction) and cant recall seeing one? We´re thinking of going and taking a look tomorrow.

Pilgrim, also, do you have any further info as I dont know where corria del rio is and cant see it on my map.

Many thanks

Karen, take the senic route, it is a must, beautiful for wildlife and birds,the rice fields, a couple of hidden restaruants (open at lunch times only), a good garden centre for garden furniture and things, just one problem I am usless at giving directions!! At Villamanrique take the Isla Mayor Road signposted on the roundabout comming in from Pilas - if comming from Hinojos straight over roundabout at garage pass El Gato restuarant on the right left at next roundabout continue along this road to next roundabout here Isla Mayor is sign posted 2nd exit follow road to end approx 3miles, turn left, approx another 3miles after the big right hand bend about a mile there is a turning on the left unsign posted and slightly hidden, takes you through to the lake and ricefields at the end of this road carry straight on to Venta Cruz (ok for a coffee)straight on again to Seville not Isla Mayor) this brings you to Puelblo del Rio continue on this road to Coria Del Rio and continue alongtowards Seville on the left are lots of car show rooms, the motorhome place is on the right somewhere?? if you have time and the weather is good its nice to sit by the river and have coffee, there is a ferry across the river here and fresh fish for sale early in the moring.

I think the one nr Sevilla airport is visible only when returning from the airport ie heading back in to Sevilla, it´s then on your right hand side.

well, many thanks Pilgrim and Hillybilly for your info.

we have just got back from a lovely day out viewing these dealerships.

Pilgrim, thank you especially for the detailed info on the scenic route - it certainly was that. Was a beautiful ride. (stopping also for coffee at the Venta Cruce). Had lunch at Pueblo del Rio. The ricefields and lake were spectacular. There were a lot of people in the forestry with hand-baskets, seemingly searching the ground and collecting something. We are intrigued as to what these might be. We did think Caracolas but we havent had any rain and havent seen any ourselves. Does anyone know what it they could be collecting?

Anyway, thank you once again, and Pilgrim, if you have any other good itineries this way, please let me know It was a lovely day out.

they are maybe collecting setas

[karandjon]

Ah, Good thinking.I never thought of that. I must admit i have seen mushrooms inbetween the pinetrees, but the ones i´ve seen dont look the "normal" edible type. Maybe I should try one.....

[Julie]

Just be careful, some mush are seriously poisonous LOL

[pilgrim]

Glad you enjoyed your trip, this is one we regularly make for got to mention but above the lake is Europe's biggest breeding ground for Storks and is great to see, I think about from March onwards? I would not pick the mushrooms, the locals don't. They go more for the nuts, they look a bit like an acorn only longer, and a plant where they strip off all the leaves and are left with a stalk.........and but this might be the same wild asparagus. For other trips John Butler's widow will be publishing his 2nd book in the not too distant future which he completed just before he died. It will be called A Bird Watching Guide to Donana (I think thats the name)which has lots of information about Donana whether you are a bird watcher or not. His previous book has detailed maps of places you might not normally find from Huelva down to the Costa Del Sol, so I am hoping this will be the same for Donana in the new book.(I have the last few remaining copies of his old book that have been ordered and have a few spares left over if you are interested inone PM me.
