- Petra H.September 2022AdvantagesVery friendly and courteous staffNegativesWash house Access roadNature campingWe were on the road with our 8-meter caravan.
The journey over the serpentine roads was quite adventurous. We were immediately greeted by a friendly member of staff, even though it was lunchtime. This employee pulled our caravan to our pitch with a small tractor. It would have been almost impossible... for us to get there. The pitches are all natural, and there was an oak tree in the middle of ours. This made it a bit difficult for us to find a place.
The check-in was very friendly and professional.
The wash house was in the immediate vicinity and could be reached via a path. It was clean but absolutely outdated. In our opinion it needs renovation.
We will probably not stay here again.Automatically translated. - Bernhard L.June 2022AdvantagesBooking and check-in via the Internet. Very friendly staff. The store has everything you need. Food in the restaurant was good. Great swimming pool.NegativesI can't think of anything worth mentioningBeautiful, well-managed CP in enchanting surroundingsUnfortunately we were only at the campsite for 4 nights with WW, car and motorcycle. We were allocated a nice pitch. The steep approach was no problem for our 11m vehicle. Water and waste water directly at the pitch. But this is probably not the case at all campsites. The campsite is a great starting... point for visits to Florence, Pistoia, Pisa or Lucca. We went on a hike to Vinci. Also very nice. You can be picked up from there by the CP shuttle. We will definitely be back.Automatically translated.
- Myriam Z.September 2021AdvantagesFew campers at the end of September, but all sanitary blocks still open. Pitches nicely separated by bushes and treesNegativesPlace really very hilly, sanitary facilities could be cleanerBeautiful, natural campsiteA really great campsite. Winding pitches. On arrival in the evening at 10.00 pm, after an adventurous journey, with our almost 8 meter long caravan up the steep roads and then behind the very friendly gentleman and his e-buggy to the pitch. I'm not sure if we would have driven there in the light.......
The sanitary facilities are no longer the newest, but the water in the showers and for washing up is hot. The toilets and showers were also always clean, only the building itself could have been better cleaned. Bread rolls were available in the store in the morning, a nice walk from our pitch. Wi-Fi was only available at the pool and the wash house. Unfortunately no reception at our pitch. The pool is very nice, but was freezing cold when we were there. Sun loungers included.
Restaurant on the pitch was fine.
Bus service to Pistoia to the train station from there to Florence was great. Beautiful towns nearby: Lucca, Vinci....
Recommended if you are looking for peace and relaxation.Automatically translated. - Werner A.September 2021AdvantagesView, RestaurantNegativesArrivalPure nature campingReservation, check-in, arrival
If you make a reservation, you have to pay the full price in advance and won't get anything back if you leave early. Registration at the site is quick, professional and friendly, the pitch is allocated (we had 67). Getting there is a bit of an adventure. If you enter the... GPS data from the camping guide into the navigation system, you are still about 10 km away from the actual pitch. But from there, the site is also signposted. The approach has a "high alpine" feel to it, you drive along a narrow pass road into the Tuscan mountains and at the end you come to a widened hilltop with a magnificent panorama. We have a caravan with 5.15 WW and I think we had the longest caravan on site.
Nature of the site
The site itself is situated around a hilltop and is very spacious with some quite steep paths. The pitches are mostly alcove-like and have a loamy surface (with quite a lot of wood ants). It was quite far away from the neighbors and there is a lot of greenery on the site due to the loosened-up layout. It was very quiet all day and the site was pleasantly free of all kinds of entertainment.
Sanitary facilities
The sanitary facilities exude the charm of the 1960s, but are clean and functional. However, this does not deserve the very good rating in the camping guide. In addition, at least our wash house 2 is completely outdoors, which is not so pleasant in the cooler September temperatures.
Other infrastructure
Get some food and drinks, you're a bit out in the sticks. The campsite restaurant is highly recommended. Conclusion For hikers, this is certainly a highly recommended site. We didn't really feel at home there - it was a bit too alpine for us. There are many more pleasant places in Tuscany, we won't be going there again.Automatically translated. - Werner S.June 2021AdvantagesNoneNegativesNoneOpens on 26.06.2021The campsite is currently being rebuilt. It should reopen on 26.06.201. Unfortunately closed until then.Automatically translated.
- Benjamin F.September 2019AdvantagesGeographical location for excursions in the surrounding area Shuttle service Pool area with a viewNegativesnoneA solid starting point for excursions in TuscanySituated on a hilltop. If you are coming from Pistoia, do not follow the navigation system and take the first turning (this is hardly feasible with a trailer anyway), but turn off in the village. Access road very steep in places but not too narrow. Friendly welcome. Campsite with some bungalows on a... separate part of the site. Pitches partly parceled out by bushes or laid out in terraces. A very long cable (>25 meters) is sometimes required for electricity. Water points are sometimes quite far away. Pitches are available in various sizes. A small supermarket on site. Bread/rolls can be ordered in advance. Restaurant on site but also other restaurants in the immediate vicinity (within walking distance). Further shopping facilities (supermarket) approx. 6 km away. Sanitary building always clean. Showers hot and large enough. Hairdryer available. Soap available in the toilets. Barbecues with charcoal allowed. Very nice view of the valley from the pools (3 pools). Bicycles, mountain bikes and scooters are available for hire. There is a shuttle service to the train station in Pistoia (train to Florence, Lucca and Siena). Free WLAN.Automatically translated.
- Lothar L.July 2019AdvantagesLocation in TuscanyWonderful location in Tuscany- Beautiful campsite with amazing views - good distance to Pisa, Lucca, Florence and SiennaAutomatically translated.
- Martin G.April 2019AdvantagesBeautiful natural site / Extremely friendly staff / Quiet /NegativesNone foundClose to nature in beautiful surroundingsThe 10-hectare site is laid out around a hill, not to say a hilltop. The steep access road to the pitches is no problem even for long caravans. In an emergency, the extremely friendly staff will help you with the tractor...! The pitches vary in size, with clay soil or grass and some are set up under... shady trees. The open sanitary block was very clean during our stay and everything worked. The sockets are protected with 10 amps. Free internet throughout the site. Swimming pool with a sensational view of Tuscany. Restaurant on the pitch and adjacent to the pitch. Courses are offered for making basta. It is an advantage to arrive with groceries, the store on site offers little choice and is overpriced. Bread can be pre-ordered. Good location for excursions to Montecatini, Lucca, Pistoia or Vinci. If you take the 7 km long winding mountain road, you will be rewarded with a beautiful natural site. (From the highway exit Pistoia 17 km) On arrival and departure, follow the signs and not the navigation system!!!Automatically translated.
- Reinhard K.September 2018AdvantagesWonderful view, central locationNegativesNone recognizable for usQuiet place in a fantastic locationBarco Reale is a quiet place with a wonderful view over Tuscany. The swimming pool is also suitable for non-swimmers. During our stay in September 2018, the sun loungers were free of charge. The campsite is an ideal starting point for sightseeing tours. There are shuttle buses to Florence and Pistoia.... The food in the restaurant on site was a disaster. I have never eaten such a bad "homemade" lasagna and a pizza from the freezer counter is also better. The sanitary facilities are very clean, the staff are super friendly and helpful and the small store has all the essentials. But there is a supermarket nearby.Automatically translated.
- Tobias D.August 2018AdvantagesBeautiful shady pitches Great pool Good starting point for Florence, Pisa etc.NegativesShowers with far too little water Drinks in the store very expensiveBeautiful place with slight flawsBeautifully laid out pitch with plenty of shade. Laid out as a terrace pitch. Maxi pitches are sufficient for caravan, awning and car. Other pitches would be too small for us. Great pool. Large pool, even for non-swimmers. Beautifully laid out. For a site in this price category, I don't think it's ok... that sun loungers and deckchairs are chargeable. Small store, sufficient for the essentials. Drinks such as water but incredibly expensive! Restaurant ok. Sanitary facilities actually in good condition. According to my wife, the ladies' showers should be cleaned more often. What's really annoying is that there is far too little water coming out of the showers. The place is actually too expensive for that... All in all, though, it's recommendable and we'd be happy to come back...Automatically translated.
- Chris S.June 2018AdvantagesAussicht und RuheNegativesMüll - es gibt garkeine Mülleimer, nur eine zentrale Müllsammelstelle. Für mich waren das 15 Minuten Fussweg hin und zurück, viel Spass!Toller Platz, etwas abgelegenWir waren dort mit zwei Zelten und hatten einen schönen Stellplatz. Im Grunde ist das wie Camping auf einem Berggipfel, man kann zu zwei Seiten ins Tal sehen. Es gibt viele verschiedene und viele schöne Stellplätze (gross, klein, mit Aussicht, ohne Aussicht), deswegen vorher zeigen lassen. Waschhaus... war immer sauber. Guter Service an der Rezeption. Der Pool ist wirklich so schön wie auf den Bildern. Der Platz ist zwar in der Nähe von Floremz, aber 50 Minuten Fahrt sollte man schon einplanen. Allerdings ist er ganz in der Nähe von Vinci, dem Geburtsort von Leonardo da Vinci. Mehrere Mussen und schönes kleines Dorf, sehenswert! Einkaufen bei Coop in Lamporecchio
- Frank Z.May 2018AdvantagesShady spots Great starting point for excursions A dream for cyclists Quiet locationNegativesNo disadvantages for usGreat quiet campsiteWe stayed at this campsite for 14 days and enjoyed the peace and quiet. We rented a mobile home. The location is brilliant if you like sightseeing (Vinci, Pisa, Lucca, Florence) and cycling. Great climbs, especially from Vinci I enjoyed riding up. The staff are super friendly and some speak German. When... our daughter got injured, we didn't know when to thank everyone, several people were so helpful. The supermarket has the essentials. The restaurant was ok, but not a highlight. Opposite is another restaurant which was delicious but also very expensive. Children can go horse riding next door. The pool was loved by our three children (14/10/10) and visited every day if possible. The view from there is breathtaking, unfortunately the area is closed off in the evening and you can only see the whole thing from higher up. You can also hike if you don't miss the right turn-off. The pitches on the campsite are shady, which is really helpful in summer. Our children have decided that they want to come here again. We are already looking forward to coming here againAutomatically translated.
- Norbert H.May 2018AdvantagesBeautiful viewNegativesMountainous and somewhat spacious.Nice place and friendly peopleHello, we had a lovely 3 days here. The pitches for the motorhome are large and you have a very nice view (also in the evening) over the valley. I also learned how to make my own pasta there !!!Automatically translated.
- Walter K.May 2018AdvantagesLocation of the campsite, friendly staff, clean, leisure facilitiesNegatives-Fantastic location, very friendly staff, lots of leisure activitiesWe were there for 5 nights with the camper van at the end of May 2018. The approach is a challenge for long motorhomes and caravans as the campsite is on a hill. For access, do not take the hairpin bend in the hairpin bend, but the 2 driveway through the village. The pitches are explained in detail at... reception or can be viewed by golf cart with an employee. The sanitary facilities are functional and clean. Depending on the pitch, you have to walk a few meters uphill to get to reception, the information desk or the well-stocked store. There are plenty of options on offer. We used the shuttle service to Vinci and the bus trips to Lucca, Pisa and Florence. The price/performance ratio is good. The exceptional friendliness of the staff deserves special mention. We couldn't find anything negative.Automatically translated.
- Nico S.August 2017AdvantagesFriendliness, cleanliness and the pool areaNegativesNoneQuiet, clean place to relaxThe site is very clean and quiet. The operators were always very friendly and accommodating. The view from the pool area is fantastic. The sanitary facilities were always clean and very spacious. Due to the location, you cover a lot of altitude on the site. Florence and Pisa are easily accessible for excursions.Automatically translated.
- Ti P.June 2017AdvantagesLocation Peace and quiet CleanlinessNegativesSometimes long distances to the store etc.Quiet location perfect for excursionsThose looking for peace and quiet will find it here. Those looking for a unique view of Tuscany will also find it here. Excursions and shuttle service are offered every day. Fresh rolls and bread as well as the essentials at the market. Pools and sports activities. The pitches are large but a bit out... of the way. Peace and relaxation without end. But if you are a bit older or generally not good on foot, you'd better choose another place. 600 meters there and back to reception, store and reception with sometimes long and steep inclines certainly not for everyone. Otherwise perfect. Restaurant opposite to recommend!!!!Automatically translated.
- Tim G.April 2017AdvantagesAll in all a great place! Highly recommended.NegativesStore too expensiveHighly recommended!We stayed at the campsite in April 2017 and felt very comfortable. Great location, very friendly operators, great excursions and hikes on offer, clean sanitary blocks. The access road is quite steep in places, the turn-off in the village at an acute angle is difficult with a trailer, so don't listen to the sat nav, but take the second turn-off. The restaurant "I Golosi" opposite the campsite is highly recommended. The place is quite expensive.Automatically translated.

The pitches are large and clean, the sanitary facilities are in great condition. The swimming pool offers a fantastic view. There is a small supermarket and a restaurant on site. W-Lan on the whole site I will definitely go here again :-)Automatically translated.
