Here's a site that's not to be missed, it is in the most beautiful area that you could ever wish for , and the manager speaks fluent English  http://www.campingbergueda.com/campingeng.htm

It's only 30 minutes away from the Cadi Tunnel and if you really want some cheap goodies its only 45 minutes from Andorra.

We also formed a negative opinion of Andorra, based on driving through on the busy main road lined with tacky duty-free shops.  However, we have friends who are keen walkers and have been several times, and say that once you get out into the countryside it's wonderful.  It's also popular for winter sports, especially snowboarding. 

We've stayed in some small Spanish sites with few or no statics, but unfortunately nowhere near where you're going!  The Spanish, like the Italians, tend not to use their caravans for touring but prefer to leave them permanently on a site and go to stay at weekends and holidays, so small sites purely for tourers are rare.

This is a smallish site - www.elripolles.com/campingmoliserradell/eng/entorn.  I don't know about statics, but it does have some wooden bungalows.  We've not stayed there but have visited the area around Ripoll and it's beautiful.

Visited  Andorra several times and really loved it. The first few times we drove to La Vella (the capital) and the traffic was pretty heavy but mor recently found that Pas de la Casa, just on the French border was just as good. We camped at Ax les Thermes in France and it was only about a 20-30 minute drive to Pas de la Casa. As stated earlier the Douannes (Customs) are really strict (they even made us put the roof of our convertible up so they could look in the compartment where the roof folds into !) so don't even think about exceeding the limit (tempting though it is). We're off there in January ski-ing - hope I'm not too disappointed having been to Trois Vallees the past two years.
