We are Gijs, Linda and Carlos, and run Camping Redondo where you will have the opportunity to learn all aspects of running a small rural camping , located 9 kms from the historic city of Tomar and one hour.s drive from Lisbon. Here we attract a very international selection of chalet, caravan and tent guests who you will be able to assist with registrations and payments in addition to offering local tourist information and advice. In the mornings we need assistance with feeding and walking the animals, cleaning duties around the camping, laundry and chalet preparation. Occasionally there will also be maintenance or gardening chores to be undertaken. In the late afternoons the children like to walk with the animals or help with their feeding. In the evenings our guests enjoy to chat over a drink at the bar-terrace and on certain evenings we offer Camp Dinners to bring everyone together which you will be able to help prepare and serve.
