General information
Two water parks for young and old
With two large water parks, this campsite in Tuscany is a paradise for all water sports enthusiasts, young and old. And if you're a fan of Tuscan cuisine or Chianti wines, the Norcenni Girasole Club campsite is also the place to be. You can stay comfortably in a luxury SunLodge mobile home or lodge tent. But this holiday village has a lot more to offer. How about an Italian ice-cream parlour, a large games room and a wellness centre with a Turkish bath? There is even a riding school! Get ready for a luxury camping holiday in sunny Tuscany.In the Tuscan hills
Camping Village Norcenni Girasole is located about thirty kilometres from Florence, in the middle of the Tuscan hills. There are beautiful vineyards all around. This is where the famous Chianti wine grows, which you can of course taste at the campsite. Norcenni Girasole Club is a terraced campsite, which means that the pitches are at different levels. This provides a very pleasant and cosy feeling, despite the fact that the campsite is really quite big; no less than eleven hectares in size.For swimming enthusiasts
You will find two large water parks on this family campsite. The water park on the upper part is especially fun for young children. They can splash around in three swimming pools with all kinds of play equipment. It is fun and safe, because the pools are shallow and have a soft bottom. You can use an inflatable ring to go down the slide or drift down the lazy river. So much fun! The second water park is located on the other side of the village. It boasts a competition pool, a children's pool and a large water slide. The heated pool has a sliding roof, ideal for when the weather is not at its sunniest.Bake your own pizza
Do you like cooking? Or horseback riding? Or maybe you like playing soccer? You can do it all at this campsite in Tuscany! You can get delicious Italian pizzas in one of the restaurants. And if you always wanted to play at being a pizza chef, or make your own pasta, then you are at the right place! You can join a workshop and learn to cook Italian food. And after an active day in the riding stables or on the tennis court, you'll love a real Italian ice cream from the campsite's ice cream parlour. Somewhat older kids can enjoy themselves all day long in the games room, packed with fun games, or head to the activity park, where the children can climb to their heart's content, jump on the trampolines, or follow a tree-top adventure course.Luxury camping in a SunLodge
Wait, are you camping, or are you staying at a luxury hotel? When you're camping in a SunLodge, the difference is sometimes hard to tell! This is glamping at its best. The SunLodge BigLeaf and Catalpa have amazing beds that will let you sleep like a rose. In these mobile homes you also have private toilet facilities. The SunLodge lodge tents are spacious and have a covered, wooden terrace. Such a luxury holiday home is ideal for a camping holiday with children. From your lodge tent or mobile home you look out over the Tuscan hills. A beautiful sight! Especially when the sun goes down.Take the train to the water park
It might be a bit of a walk from your lodge tent to the water park and back. Luckily there is a little train on the campsite. This allows you to go anywhere. From water park to water park, or from an evening of dining back to your SunLodge. Really convenient. Excellent customer service!
