The site is split into two by the road and the reception is on the road side. The lake pitches can be very tight and close together and the roadside is tiered, some overlooking the lake.
The staff here are very friendly and helpful. The restaurant and bar offer a good selection of drinks and food. It also has a small shop with a good selection of fresh and frozen foods.Fresh bread is available daily.
The town of San Giulio is about a 40min walk and well worth it - lots of beautiful buildings.
Also a very dog friendly site which for us is important.
We would definitely return to this site

A terraced campsite located on the steep hillside overlooking Lake Orta in a beautiful part of Italy.
The Lakeside pitches are bordered by a elevated road, so we chose an upper terraced pitch which provided a partial view of the lake and some shade. Despite the terraced layout, you can easily walk to the lakeside within minutes without having to cross the road due to a short tunnel within the site.
There is good access for swimming and water sports at the lakeside.
Toilet facilities were immaculate, though no toilet roll was provided (this is Italy and some toilets come with a shower head for cleansing).
However. there was no hand soap provided in the toilets which doesn’t encourage good hand hygiene, hence only 3 stars.

All staff were extremely welcoming, polite and friendly and spoke excellent English. Campsite shop has a small selection of essentials. Didn’t eat or drink at the bar/restaurant but did order a gluten free lasagne takeaway which was fantastic for a coeliac travelling in Italy!

Can’t comment of child friendliness as we were travelling without kids. A lovely site, would
recommend.

A welcoming site with very friendly and polite staff who all spoke excellent English.

The site is located on a terraced hillside beside the lake, pitch options are beside the lake (below the road) and different heights up the terraces. There is a freight train line located up the hill, but trains were infrequent and didn’t disturb us at all.

There are two large toilet blocks, which are slightly dated, but immaculate and well maintained. There is also a bar/restaurant and small shop for essentials.
We didn’t visit the restaurant or use any sports facilities, but did get a takeaway gluten free lasagne, which was excellent and a great find for a Coeliac in Italy!

The site is well located, a 15 minute walk to Orta San Giulio and you’re always only minutes from the lakeside for a swim or water sports. We would happily stay here again.

Great site for visiting Orta san Giulio which is a lovely village and only 2km cycle. The site is medium sized an absolutely fine but the pitches in the lake side of the road are very cramped with some road noise. The lake swimming compensates for this though as it’s great to step out of the pitch and straight into the lake. Didn’t try the restaurant so can’t review.

Spent five nights on this delightful site and would have stayed longer had it not been for the forecast rain. We were on the third tier of the main site which is relatively difficult to access - our motorhome is 7.14 metres and I think the maximum is 8. The toilet facilities were lovely and much better than those on the lake side. Bread and croissants from the site shop were delicious. We did a lot of walking with our dog. The first 10 minutes towards orta san giulio were on a busy road but there were lots of footpaths after that especially in the hills above the campsite with some delightful villages and hamlets. We spent one day ferry hopping around the lake - a day ticket. We went on a Thursday so were able to visit the large market at omegna. We loved the area and hope to return.

Wonderful small site with pitches on lake edge. Other pitches across road although site is joined together via a pedestrian tunnel.
Lovely helpful staff.
Village of Orta San Giulio is a 30 minute walk away and is well worth a visit.
Recommended.

Nice well kept campite on both sides of the road, with a tunnel joining the two sides. Very friendly and helpful staff, English spoken in reception. Small shop with good choice. Bar area well laid out and good choice. Terraced site with good views, we were in a camper, so no trouble getting on to a higher pitch, but we did se some larger motorhomes struggle and one scrape his rear corner on the tarmac as he drove up to his pitch. The pitches on the side of the site nearest the lake were very tightly packed, but there is a nice grassy area between the pitches and lake for relaxing on. The lake is clean and the views are great. A lot of road noise especially in the morning. Very modern and well kept toilets/showers which were not charged for, but toilet paper not provided.

Stayed in June 2018, just after the school holidays had started in Italy. The lady in reception was very friendly and spoke good English. We had not booked, but on our arrival she offered us a choice of pitches, and suggested we walk round first to decide which we wanted. The site is terraced, but quite steep. The toilets and showers are some of the best we\'ve seen. Road noise quitens down later on, but there is a train line runs past the top of the site that is quiet frequent. The pitches on the lake side are very small and crowded, and there is a large amount of seasonal caravans with lean to extensions that spoil the site, as the residents don\'t seem to think the noise rules apply to them.
