Pinar de Campoverde is an established Spanish
village set on a wooded hillside with views to
the Mediterranean. It is less crowded than the
more developed Torrevieja, with mainly large detached
homes and year-round residents who are British
or German. There is a new urbanisation around
the village, which has encouraged new shops and
restaurants. A new Golf course is under construction
on the south edge of the village to add to the
3 already established local courses.
Set in a tranquil area amongst orange and lemon groves and pine trees, the village centre is just around the corner from the villa and has several bars, restaurants, bank, pharmacy, supermarket and a large open-air Swimming Pool which is open to the public between June and September - 12 am to 8-00 pm. There is a small street market on Sunday mornings. On the other side of the village near the Rio Seco area are several tennis courts, basketball, football and large public swimming pool.
The nearest town to the south of the village is Pilar De La Horadada, where you can join the A-37 Alicante-Cartegena auto-route or acces the beaches of the Mediterranean. There are several sandy beaches stretching from El Mojon to Mil Palmeras and a small marina at Torre De La Horadada. Campoverde is 12 mins from the nearest beach (by car).
