Camposol is already gearing up for Christmas

The lights and decorations will be going up in the community soon, and it’s time to start thinking about what Christmas presents you’re going to buy

As we draw towards the end of the year 2025, we look back at Camposol Today and reflect on the last few months. Camposol is a very large and busy urbanisation with so much going on.

There are a great deal of charities, volunteer gardening groups, free sports facilities and golf societies. Camposol can also boast about organisations such as FAST and MABS, making it the envy of many other urbanisations in the Region of Murcia.

Above all else, Camposol has a real community spirit, and at no time is that more true than at Christmas. There is something for everyone in Camposol at Christmas!

For many of us, Christmas in Spain is very different from the traditional Christmas celebrations we are used to in other parts of Europe, but on Camposol we have the opportunity to enjoy a blend of the old and the new, mixing the traditions we love from our old homes with the customs we have picked up here in our adopted home.

Many of the restaurants here offer a traditional Christmas roast with all the trimmings. These include establishments such as Piccolo’s or The Casa Club. For those of us who really just want something ‘different’ there is always Spice Villa or The Chinese, both open all day and evening.

Those of us who have been here for a few years always look forward to a trip to the beach on Christmas morning: as a rule, the weather is nice and that is a novelty some of us will never get used to (nor get bored of!). Many of the local bars and cafés are open for business on Christmas Day, and you often get a few free cakes or biscuits on Christmas morning.

So, what actually is Camposol Today?

Camposol Today is a website that falls under the umbrella of Spain Today Online. Many will know it as Murcia Today. It is very well established and has very high rankings on Google, having been going for over 15 years.

Camposol Today is not Facebook, although we do share our articles across many Facebook groups. There are just so many Facebook groups now with the word ‘Camposol’ in them that we try to simplify it by just having one point of entry, and that is www.camposoltoday.com.

Here, we share as much information as we can about Camposol. It is one view of Camposol and includes:

Camposol news
What’s on
Food and drink
Where to eat
Weather
Lifestyle
Property
and the essential useful numbers section.

Thinking ahead to Christmas on Camposol, we have already been sent a few Christmas gift ideas by our existing customers, so if you are lacking inspiration for a present, maybe we can help:

The Salon on Camposol sector A offers Gift Vouchers for all treatments that they offer. Why not buy a pamper package for some of your friends this year?
Raquel Tours’ authentic trips out to visit other parts of this lovely region would make a lovely gift. Raquel has everything from wine tours to Catamaran trips – just take a look!
Serrano Garden Centre has new stock arriving daily, including Poinsettias, garden ornaments, winter shrubs and more.
Bodega Martínez sells a variety of Christmas hampers and has special bottles of vino for sale. Put a proper tipple on your Christmas table this year!
Paws and Snores have gift vouchers for their dog social club. Available Monday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings throughout the year, the club is a very popular option for social dogs and owners.
Wagging Tails, the new dog groomers on Camposol, also have gift vouchers available, so you can buy a pamper session for the dog lover in your life! From bathing and brushing to nail trimming and stylish haircuts, a full grooming package is available for pets at Wagging Tails. Email waggingtails25@outlook.ie or WhatsApp 0034 711 076 280 for info.
FixTech lets you convert your old video tapes to DVD or even store them digitally on your computer or in the cloud. Do you have old VHS tapes stored away because you no longer have a video recorder? Get those wedding videos back out and re-watch them! There will be some parts you really had forgotten about...
James Spanish Lessons would make a different kind of Christmas gift this year. For many of us that have been struggling with learning the Spanish language, this is a brand-new approach. If you have friends who attend classes but need that extra practice, then why not buy a course from James? It is refreshingly different and easy to understand. James explains the ‘why’ of the Spanish language in a way that makes everything just ‘click’. You can check out his range of Christmas gift cards here.
TJ Electricals could provide you with something more generous. How about buying a brand-new television for someone this Christmas? Or maybe an air fryer or thermomix, or other appliance? And if you can’t think of anyone to buy it for... give it to yourself as a present! You surely deserve it.
Alright, it’s a little further away, but Restaurante Palenque down in the Port of Mazarrón has got something special for you this Christmas with their delicious festive daily menu running between December 13 and 25 only. Starters, first course, main and dessert, plus a weclome drink and vegetable spring roll – whether for lunch or dinner, depending on the day – all for just €39 per person. Now deals don’t come much better than that. Book on line at www.palenquebrasas.com or call 0034 968 15 30 86.

TJ Electricals and the other Camposol businesses wish all their customers and the community at large a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
