- A. M.March 2024AdvantagesPitches separated from each other by hedges. Good privacy.NegativesIn contract conditional clauses regarding departure. Which are not in order and not up to date. And bind the vacationer to keep to the booked period despite severe weather warnings. As the deposit is not credited and you are asked to pay twice. An absolute NoGo...No go....We are super disappointed and not just us but also friends of ours who have had the same experience. It is simply unacceptable that a deposit of 160 euros is not offset. And you have to pay twice for the pitch if you leave early.Automatically translated.
- Marion F.July 2017AdvantagesGreat location on Lake Maggiore Super nice grown camping siteNegativesCleanliness of the sanitary facilities There are too few wash houses for the number of pitchesGreat campsite!!!Super nice place, quiet location, grown facility, very well maintained! However, the sanitary facilities are a bit old and unfortunately it looks very used! There is no toilet paper in the toilets and no soap at the washbasins!Automatically translated.
- Michael D.April 2017AdvantagesNature, the town of Cannobio with its Sunday marketNegativesVery steep entrance to the site and narrow access roads to the pitches.The name is a promiseBeautiful park-like grounds with rich flora and fauna on a (cold) river with bathing opportunities in the Cannobina valley (approx. 3 km to Cannobio on a footpath along the river). Simple sanitary facilities, which can sometimes be overwhelmed during busy periods. Atmospheric restaurant / pizzeria inside and outside, with simple dishes. Some narrow access roads to the pitches. Very good store (seasonal variety), very friendly service.Automatically translated.
- Jörg E.August 2016AdvantagesLocation by the river, beautiful grounds of the campsiteNegativesHigh WiFi costsbeautiful placeVery nicely laid out site. Cleanliness generally very good, only the floor in the wash house could have been mopped more often, but this was not a problem. The lighting in the wash house was a bit poor in places but not a problem. Right on the river, great for swimming if you're not afraid of cold water.... The walk to the village is quite long though (at least 2 kilometers, although the nicer path is a bit longer and has an incline). We had a brief power cut, but this was dealt with immediately. The small supermarket on site is pretty good, you can get almost everything there. The restaurant on site has great pizzas at a very fair price. However, I found the charges for WiFi far too expensive. If you're not watching movies, mobile internet could be much cheaper. The site is not exactly cheap in other respects either, but given the location you can probably justifiably claim to get something for it. The crowd was quite pleasant. Lots of Dutch people, many with tents, hardly any motorhomes, no noisy youth groups or similar, no permanent campers.Automatically translated.
- Jonas v.May 2016Advantages- Location (quiet, close to Lake Maggiore) - Flowers on the pitch - Beautiful pool on the site - Arrival also possible at nightNegatives- Quite small plots - Age of the sanitary facilities - WLan prices - Swimming cap compulsory in the poolQuiet, beautiful campsite near Lake MaggioreWe spent a week of our Whitsun vacation on this beautiful site. Our arrival was a little late, but an email to the campsite soon brought the answer that we could arrive all night. There is a map at reception showing which of the free pitches are reserved; you can choose from the other free pitches. Registration... then takes place the next day. Top! The site is beautifully laid out. Every corner has a shrub, tree or flower in bloom - it's lovely and beautifully maintained! There is a large flat area by the river with countless small and large stones. It's a great place to spend some time. However, it was still too cold for us to swim. In the evening there are often people who light a small fire there - it has a lovely atmosphere! The playground was in reasonably good condition and a nice place for our 4-year-old to play with other children. We liked the pool. The only thing we found outdated was the swimming cap requirement. And the water was still quite fresh in May... ;-) The restaurant makes good pizzas at reasonable prices. We often picked some up. The lady there was also really friendly! The store has the essentials. However, the prices are a little higher. But the nonna is a real sweetheart! The sanitary facilities are clearly outdated. The campsite could definitely use some of its hefty prices to do something about this. However, they were reasonably clean, so we didn't feel uncomfortable there. Cannobio is a good kilometer away. You can take a nice stroll along the promenade and eat a very good ice cream. We went on excursions to the Versasca Valley, as there is always a lot to discover there. We also took the Levana-Intra ferry to take the gondola up the mountain on the other side of the lake. Rarely have we been able to enjoy such an impressive panorama! A wonderful day trip! We would love to come back, as we will always have fond memories of the place!Automatically translated.
- Jeannette W.July 2015AdvantagesBeautiful location, great pitches, cool river with moderate currentNegativesNo soap/hand detergent in the sanitary facilities.A little paradiseCamping Valle Romantica is a beautiful site, a little away from Cannobio in the valley. However, it is situated in such a way that it has direct sun for long periods. The pitches vary in size and are mostly laid out in alcoves. If you have a large caravan, it is advisable to call ahead and ask if there... is still space available. The sanitary facilities are simple but clean. You have to bring your own toilet paper. Unfortunately there is no hand wash/soap in the washbasins. There is a simple pool on the site. The 3 different swimming areas in the river, which you can easily reach on foot, are great. Whether swimming, lazing around or cliff jumping, there is a leisure activity for everyone :o) We were only at the lake once (easily accessible by bike, off the road - even with children), after that our children only wanted to play in, around and with the river. The lake was boring :o). There is also table tennis and a beach volleyball court. The small store, right by the entrance, has a good range of products. The prices are normal to reasonable. The pizzeria on the square has a good price/performance ratio. The food and ambience at the "Vino Divino" osteria was great. We were there in July/early August. At that time, a good 90% of the guests came from Holland. There were many possibilities for excursions. Whether by boat or car, or simply on foot. It was never boring. Cannobio itself also offers many events.Automatically translated.
- Esther L.July 2015Advantagessee above.Negatives-Perfect vacation - like every year!I can only thank you for the wonderful vacation I experience every year at this beautiful campsite! You have a great team in the office, on the site and the restaurant is delicious and well organized. You can also sunbathe/read and swim at the pool or if you prefer to swim in the river, there are also... great options here. All over the campsite there are great, sometimes exotic plants in all colors and shapes so that you feel like you are living in an exotic garden. The volleyball court at the end of the campsite is also great - you always meet nice people there. Can only recommend this place! I find it frightening what some people write here and I have found that if you have a problem, someone from reception will always help you.Automatically translated.
- Andreas I.August 2014AdvantagesPark-like grounds with plenty of shade. Romantic location in the Cannobino valley Free, very good spring water 150m awayNegatives2km to the village and a little more to the beach on the lake Sanitary facilities without toilet paper and soapRomantic place to relaxThanks to its park-like layout, the campsite offers plenty of shady spots, which we found very pleasant. It is beautifully laid out and is located directly on the river, which is great for swimming. After a storm, the river becomes a raging torrent, which is a real natural spectacle! The staff are friendly,... you can eat a good pizza in the restaurant and the kiosk has plenty of everyday supplies. The footpath to Cannobio runs along the river and you can be in the town in about 20 minutes. The sanitary facilities are basic. It wouldn't hurt if they were cleaned a little more often. You also have to bring your own toilet paper and soap. Otherwise there is nothing bad to say about the site.Automatically translated.
- Familie L.August 2014Park-like CP with compromises in sanitary facilitiesWe liked the diverse vegetation on the site, the river and the small restaurant. On the negative side, we noticed the sanitary facilities and their cleanliness. We cannot confirm the campsite's comment in response to criticism from another reviewer that the cleaning ladies are present until the afternoon.... The shower cubicles are very small. Hot water rather rare. Toilet paper and soap are nowhere to be found. Lighting rather poor. Unfortunately we were unlucky with the weather, heavy rain and constant thunderstorms at night. The pitches unfortunately don't have grass, so tents & co. get very dirty when it rains. Unfortunately, our row of pitches didn't have a paved access road either. Other rows already had this advantage. Conclusion: A recommended campsite if you don't attach much importance to sanitary facilities.Automatically translated.
- Mats A.July 2013One off the most fantastic places we ever been to. The location is fantastic with biking or walking distance to the beach and town, and the nature on the campsite is marvelous, nice pool, very nice restaurant. the only small minus might be that the sanitary blocks are rather old but they are clean. We Will Be Back!!Automatically translated.
- Christine S.July 2013Very idyllic campsite. Actually a very nice, quiet place. The surrounding area is ideal for hiking, biking and other activities. Not really suitable for senior citizens as some of the paths are very slippery, even in the rain. The sanitary facilities are only cleaned once in the morning. It often happened... to us that we had to wash up or shower in the dark because the lights were switched on very late. What I think is outrageous is that you pay €18 for a week's Wi-Fi and then can only use the code for a cell phone - that's a rip-off for me. Otherwise we liked the place.Automatically translated.Answered from Campeggio Valle Romantica December 6, 2013The sanitary facilities are cleaned several times a day, so this cannot be true at all - the cleaning ladies are always there until late in the afternoon and always make a round to avoid this - everything must be in order! The campsite is located in an area that looks like a botanical garden, so it can... happen that when it rains a lot at once (happens a few times in the season), the paths are a bit slippery - to Christine-156: have you been here in bad weather ? otherwise we generally always get a lot of good comments that our campsite is exceptionally good and clean - we also have several gardeners working here all year round and keeping everything perfect ! Wi-Fi is still for a fee at the moment, as we have had a connection almost all over the campsite since 2013 - this was not easy as there are so many trees and bushes, so we had to do a lot of work to extend this as much as possible.... so there must be some understanding for this! For 2014 we have a new pool in sight... so there is always something new at Valle Romantica... Visit us again soon : )Automatically translated.
- Sybille K.June 2013The most beautifully laid out and well-kept campsite I have ever seen, a real paradise!Automatically translated.
- Hubert W.May 2013The square is a paradise of flowers. Azaleas, camellias and rhododendrons form a dreamlike backdrop. The access road requires some courage. The approach with a 2.5 m wide caravan is exciting. The sanitary facilities are clean but rather basic. The restaurant is okay, the store is small but the friendly service is impressive. The site is highly recommended. The hiking is very strenuous and not without danger.Automatically translated.
- Wolfgang S.June 2012The extensive and beautiful vegetation combined with the accessible river make this an exceptional and very quiet campsite. Small, well-run store on site as well as an idyllic restaurant and very well-kept pool. Large pitches with large hedge partitions. Sanitary facilities very clean, but shower cubicles... quite small. Motorcyclists turn off into Valle Cannobio right at the entrance and then have many paradisiacal routes to choose from. Still very empty at the beginning of June. Fortunately no annoying entertainment.Automatically translated.
