Gitavillage California ****
General information
Italian holiday paradise with a private beach and water park.
Enjoy the sun, sea and a large private beach at this campsite in the Italian hills. California Camping Village is a luxurious family campsite on the borders of Tuscany and Lazio. The campsite has a lovely swimming pool, but even better is the warm beach of the Mediterranean. You can hear the sound of the sea as you walk around the campsite, so it’s no surprise to find that the beach is right next to the campsite. If you want to do more than just bob up and down all afternoon, maybe the campsite’s wellness centre is the place for you!Shaded location
The campsite is positioned among the tall pine trees which provide shade during the hot Italian summers. This holiday resort in Montalto di Castro has a friendly entertainment team that organises fun activities for young and old every day. There is a kids’ club, and sports competitions are organised. Many Italians also come here, so the main language is Italian, but anyone can take part in the activities, and the entertainment team will do all they can to ensure that you and your children have a great time. There are spectacular shows and live music in the evenings. California Camping Village has a campsite shop with a large selection and regional produce, so you don’t need to leave the campsite for your shopping!Sun, sea and swimming fun
In just a couple of minutes’ walk you will be standing with your feet in the hot sandy Mediterranean beach. The wide beach is perfect for hours of relaxing and building sandcastles. But if you prefer, you can take a dip in a swimming pool; the water park on the campsite includes various swimming pools with fountains, play equipment and a super-fast slide. Sun worshippers can use the sun loungers next to the pool.Beach volleyball, tennis and wellness
This wonderful place will provide the perfect balance between activity and relaxation. Maybe you want to have fun with the children during a round of beach volleyball or on the tennis court. Then you can relax in the spa with a wellness programme complete with sauna, Turkish bath, experience shower and hydro massage. If all that activity has given you an appetite, you can enjoy local specialities in the restaurant, such as the most delicious Italian pizzas and pastas. A real Italian ice cream as dessert will make the day complete for you and the children.City trip from the campsite
It is about a ninety minute drive from the campsite to Rome. And we don’t need to tell you that the drive will be worth it! Even the children won’t want to pass up that opportunity. From the gladiators near the Colosseum to the many impressive fountains, this city is an experience for young and old. And of course you can visit the Pope if you want to! After a hot day taking in all the culture, you can all go for a refreshing dip back on the campsite!
