from 8 reviews Write review

In a pine forest, at one km from the coastal village of Principina a Mare (Toscane), lies the quiet and modest Campeggio Principina. There is a large amount of greenery on the campsite which creates a relaxing atmosphere. From the campsite it is a ten minute walk to the sea. The campsite offers an entertainment programme for young and old (in Italian, sometimes in English).

Sleeping between pine trees

Unpaved paths will lead you to your pitch, located on neatly maintained fields. You will find pine trees in many places. There are no less than four hundred touring pitches, varying from 50 to 140 m2. By and large you are assured of sufficient privacy. There is little demarcation between the pitches, this is more or less left to your own discretion. There are 72 rental accommodation units (lodge tents, cottages and mobile homes).

The ideal beach

When you feel like a swim, you will undoubtedly head for the sea! This can be reached via a cycle/footpath. This is one of the most beautiful beaches in this part of the Mediterranean Sea in Italy: a wide swathe of beach with fine, almost white sand. White sun umbrellas and loungers await you here and there is a wooden jetty leading down to the sea.

The hungry camper

The small restaurant with lovely ambiance has a limited menu with good quality dishes. It has a cheerful appearance and two terraces. You can also get take-away meals. You can enjoy a drink at the bar. There is also a pizzeria. The small supermarket only stocks a few essentials. In summer, after 1st June, the range is extended.

€19 per night during lowseason

Travelling party: Young couple

Een betaalbaar verblijf op een hele fijne plek op een paar minuten loopafstand tot het strand!

De communicatie met de camping (Laila) was voortreffelijk. De minilodge was hartstikke netjes en goed onderhouden.

Faciliteiten op de camping zijn eenvoudig maar prima. Sanitair altijd schoon aangetroffen.

(Tip: reserveer tijdig een ligbedje bij een beach bar als je daar gebruik van wilt maken, in het hoogseizoen is alles vol gereserveerd / fietsen ook op tijd reserveren bij de receptie / minilodge beschikt over minibar, ventilator en tuinsetje, overige spullen zijn. niet aanwezig.)

Travelling party: Seniors

Camping geeft een erg rommelige indruk. Slecht groenbeheer. Het sanitair is hopeloos verouderd en in slechte staat. De enige zit wc bij de heren zou wel eens wat chloor mogen zien. De pot ziet letterlijk zwart van binnen.
