Camping Barco Reale ****

Camping Barco Reale ****

Swimming with views over Tuscany


The loveliest views of the Tuscan hills, that’s what you’ll get from this campsite in Tuscany. Barco Reale campsite is located on a hill in the middle of the countryside. But there’s plenty more to this Italian campsite than swimming with a view. You can take cooking lessons or go with the very youngest to a baby dance. Or your children can spend an afternoon playing with the entertainment team. And it would not be Italy if you couldn’t get delicious pizzas. And while you can enjoy the peace and quiet at the campsite, you can also visit beautiful Italian cities - such as Florence, Lucca and Pisa - in less than an hour's drive.

Close to cities and beaches


Barco Reale campsite is located on a hillside in the middle of pine tree and oak forests, and offers stunning views of the Tuscan countryside. If you’re feeling a bit sportive, rent a mountain bike at the campsite and discover the beautiful Tuscan hills. If you prefer a day on the beach, that’s also possible. The sandy beaches of the Mediterranean Sea are just over an hour’s drive from Barco Reale campsite.

Swimming with the loveliest views


Your swimming trunks and bikini are the first thing you will pack in your suitcase. Barco Reale campsite actually has three swimming pools. You get breath-taking views of the Tuscan hills from all three swimming pools. Children can enjoy themselves swimming in the large toddlers’ pool. They can also play safely in the larger one metre deep pool. This is next to the largest of the pools, and is perfect for a relaxing swim of a few lengths, or for enjoying the views of course! By the way, Barco Reale is a very dog-friendly campsite. How nice if your holiday is only complete when the dog comes along!

Home made spaghetti and Tuscan wines


Barco Reale is a real family campsite. There are plenty of activities you can do with your children. You can make mosaic artworks for example, or prepare your own spaghetti and cook a delicious meal with it. If you’re not a prince or princess in the kitchen, take your family to the campsite’s restaurant where they serve delicious pizzas. Or maybe you prefer a regional dish accompanied by a Tuscan wine? All the ingredients are grown in their own kitchen garden or sourced from local farmers. Super fresh! Pick up an Italian ice cream as a snack from the small ice cream shop on the campsite.

Florence, Pisa of Pistoia?


Barco Reale campsite is located between several beautiful Italian cities. Florence, with its famous museums and beautiful buildings is a one hour drive away. One hour further on and you can admire the Leaning Tower of Pisa with your own eyes. Does it really lean that far? If you prefer a more peaceful town, Pistoia is less than half an hour’s drive from the campsite. It’s less busy here, but this town is just as beautiful as the more famous cities.

Netjes en schoon, ruime 0lekken en ontzettend vriendelijk personeel. Onze dochter heeft coeliaki, daar is wel iets voor aanwezig maar net zoals bij de ijssalon schepte ze ijs met dezelfde lepel als waar ze het ijs voor normale hoorntjes mee scheppen en het ijslepeltje waar zehet ijs mee eet lag ook onder de normale ijshoorntjes. Toen ik er de volgende dag wat van zei hadden ze direct actie ondernomen om er zeker van te zijn dat het glutenvrij was.
Daarnaast verzorgen ze leuke dingen voor de kids en zelfs activiteiten voor volwassenen.
Het zwembad werd ook perfect onderhouden en tegen een kleine betaling huurde je bedjes met een parasol. Echt dik tevreden

mooi gelegen Toscaanse camping op een heuvel met fantastisch uitzicht. Wel weinig faciliteiten en minimarkt is echt voor de vergeten boodschappen.

Fijne camping met alle voorzieningen maar niet te groot. Vooral Nederlanders, Duitsers en een paar Scandinaviërs

Mooi gelegen camping. Lekkere broodjes en stokbroden. Ruime zwembaden. Erg jammer dat je in het hoogseizoen een badmuts moet dragen en in het hoogseizoen moet betalen voor een logbedje bij het zwembad.

mooie terrassen camping met beschutte plaatsen welke voldoende privacy bieden. Restaurant en terras prima, campingwinkel wel vers brood maar verder heel bescheiden. Zwembad met mooi uitzicht maar in hoog seizoen met goed weer te klein en dus te druk.

Mooie camping met ruime plaatsen en alles is netjes verzorgt. Door ligging op hoogte koelt het in de avond lekker af.

De camping is in één woord geweldig! Zwembad en restaurant zijn goed en keurig verzorgd en onderhouden. Het personeel is vriendelijk en altijd bereid te helpen of je te woord te staan. Het vermaak voor de kinderen is fantastisch! Vandaar een dikke 10. Het is allemaal keurig in orde.
