Hi Sue yes lots of people use electric bikes to get to A or B

In the cooler weather it is walkable if you are reasonably fit. From d32 takes me about 40 minutes to the shops on B. Wouldnt do it in the summer though. There is also the community bus that runs in the day door to door. If you cycle up to consum you can ask them to deliver your shopping to you. 

There is a new taxi service just started called camposol cabs. €1.20 per km and think the minimum charge is €4.80

It is doable now to move around more on Camposol with various options- taxi, bus and electric bikes. Of course it is more practical to own a car and to drive around to explore Spain a bit more............... We love it here and you just can't beat the lovely weather and peacefulness. Good luck and make your move.

Hi Sue,

We live at the far end of D sector. We have electric bikes and A and B are easily reachable. There are some good cycle routes from Camposol that can take you as far as your legs (and battery) will carry you. You are probably aware, but cyclists are better protected over here with cars obliged to give you a wide berth, which works well outside of Camposol, but here you need to try and avoid the drivers who seem incapable of seeing anything smaller than a lorry in front of them. You can get from D to A and B safely by taking the back roads. Good luck.

From our house to the farmacia on A is six kilometres. An equal balance of fairly gentle uphill and downhill. There is a cycle rack in the foyer of Consum supermarket on B sector. You will normally be able to find a metal fence or something similar to use as a lock up. I don’t know if you have your electric cycle? We bought ours at eco adventure in Bolnuevo. The products and service were very good. Hope that hells
