Excursion to historic cities

Explore Tuscany's historic cities from glamping La Chiocciola. Siena, famous for its horse races, is just over half an hour away. Arezzo is about the same distance away and has a beautiful center bursting with piazzas, restaurants, and narrow streets. Florence is the largest city in the area and can be reached after an hour's drive. Dive into the museums, enjoy an ice cream near the cathedral, and cross the river via the Ponte Vecchio. Drive south? Then after 50 minutes, you will arrive in Montepulciano. A small town situated on a hill, where you can drink the tastiest wines and enjoy an impressive view of the hilly landscape.

Beautiful view of lush green vineyards, rolling hills and a holiday park offering glamping accommodations.

Taste the wines of the Chianti region

Camping La Chiocciola is a glamping site with luxury safari tents set among rolling hills and vineyards. When staying in the Chianti region, it is, therefore, worth visiting a vineyard and doing a wine tasting. Head towards Enoteca Falorni, Marchesi Mazzei Cellar or Tenuta Casanova about an hour away. They are also happy to inform you at the reception about vineyards in the area.


A day trip to Lake Trasimeno

Take the car and take a trip to Lake Trasimeno, which is about a 45-minute drive from the glamping site. Lake Trasimeno is the largest lake in central and southern Italy and offers plenty of activities to fill a day. Find a spot on one of the beaches, visit the quaint waterfront towns, or take a boat trip to one of the islands in the lake.

Hiking through Pratomagno

About an hour's drive from the glamping is the mountain area of Pratomagno. This hilly area is the ideal place for peaceful walks through Italian nature. Enjoy the tranquility, great views, and fresh air. One, almost literal, the highlight is Croce del Pratomagno. This large metal cross stands on a mountain peak 1594 meters high. Walk across meadows, along streams, and spot cows in the summer. One of the trails toward this extraordinary cross starts from Monte Lori, a 45-minute drive from the glamping site. Follow the Cai 00 trail and, after a route of about 10 kilometers, reach this summit. Bring plenty of water, some snacks and enjoy an active day in the beautiful Tuscan countryside.

    Beautiful campsite with spacious pitches and water connection with sink on every pitch. Very friendly and helpful reception in several languages. Neat and clean sanitary facilities. Respect for the old owner, who took back his campsite after mismanagement of the short-lived new owner. Have confidence that this campsite can regain a top position. 👍

    Mooie camping met ruime plaatsen en water aansluiting met wasbak op iedere standplaats. Bijzonder vriendelijke en behulpzame receptie in meerdere talen. Keurig en schoon sanitair. Respect voor de oude eigenaar, die zijn camping heeft teruggenomen na wanbeleid van de kortstondige nieuwe eigenaar. Heb er vertrouwen in dat deze camping weer een toppositie kan veroveren. 👍

    It actually had a lot of potential ......but we were disappointed. We had been here several years ago and after we liked it back then, we came again. Unfortunately, we were extremely disappointed. It felt like the outdoor pool had been closed for a few weeks, the pool was drained, lots of leaves or stale green water, but was supposed to be open until 28.09. due to the weather. On arrival it was summer weather....... The campsite looks unkempt, the pitches left in their natural state, paint peeling from the ceiling in the sanitary area, looks like water damage, the doors are stuck and warped...... The water smells bad, metallic taste, unpleasant to shower with this water. Washroom and toilets rarely cleaned. No mini market, inventory completely missing, no market nearby. Lounge, bar all empty. There is a pavilion by the outdoor pool, not very inviting. The restaurant 50 meters away seems to have been empty for some time. There's nothing for miles around here. The sports facilities and tennis courts haven't been used for ages, and nature is slowly reclaiming the space. Layers of moss have already formed. What does the site have to offer, large plots and even more mosquitoes, nobody can do anything about them, nevertheless......... We won't be back

    Hätte eigentlich viel Potential ......aber wir waren enttäuscht. Wir waren vor etlichen Jahren schon mal hier und nachdem es uns damals gefallen hatte, sind wir wieder gekommen. Leider waren wir extrem enttäuscht. Das Freibad hatte gefühlt schon einige Wochen dicht, Becken Wasser abgelassen, jede Menge Laub, oder abgestandenes grünes Wasser, sollte allerdings witterungsbedingt bis 28.09. Geöffnet sein. Bei der Anreise war Sommerwetter....... Der Campingplatz wirkt ungepflegt, die Parzellen naturbelassen, Sanitärbereich Farbe blättert von der Decke, sieht nach Wasserschaden aus, die Türen klemmen, sind verzogen...... Das Wasser riecht übel, metallischer Geschmack, unangenehm sich mit diesem Wasser zu duschen. Waschraum und Toiletten nur selten gereinigt. Kein Mini Markt, Inventar dazu fehlt komplett, auch kein Markt in der Nähe. Aufenthaltsraum, Bar alles steht leer. Ein Pavillon beim Freibad gibt's dafür, wenig einladend. Das Restaurant 50 Meter entfernt scheint auch schon länger leer zu stehen. Weit und breit gibt's hier nichts. Die Sportanlagen, die Tennisplätze schon ewig nichts mehr gemacht, den Platz gewinnt langsam die Natur wieder zurück. Moosschichten haben sich bereits gebildet. Was bietet der Platz, große Parzellen und noch mehr Mücken, für die kann keiner was, trotzdem......... wir kommen nicht wieder

    Campground is very spacious. Places with a little shade and a lot of shade. Previous reviews indicated that plumbing is somewhat outdated but clean. Camping was (September) almost empty. End of season and pool was now closed. However, a nice large pool. Very nice people at the reception. They speak English. You don't see that often on Italian campsites. IN June there was a store and restaurant. The manager of that just left after a month. Next year the manager of the bar will take over. That will give another boost to the campground. Excellent base in Tuscany. Next to the campground many opportunities to walk a dog.

    Camping is erg ruim van opzet. Plaatsen met beetje schaduw en veel schaduw. Vorige reviews gaven al aan dat sanitair wat verouderd is maar wel schoon. Camping was (september) vrijwel leeg. Einde seizoen en zwembad was nu gesloten. Wel een mooi groot bad. Heel aardige mensen bij de receptie. Ze spreken Engels. Dat zie je nog niet vaak op Italiaanse campings. IN juni was er een winkel en restaurant. De uitbater daarvan is na een maand zomaar vertrokken. Volgend jaar gaat de uitbater van de bar dit overnemen. Dat zal weer een impuls aan de camping geven. Prima uitvalbasis in Toscane. Naast de camping veel mogelijkheden om een hond uit te laten en los laten lopen.

    Camping with a big favor factor because of the super nice people. There is still room for improvement; the pictures and information on the website really give too rosy a picture at the moment. The pool unfortunately appeared to be out of service since last week, end of season. There is no store or restaurant within walking distance. Opposite the reception there is now a little bar where morning coffee and croissants are available. Bread can be ordered the night before. The pitches are nicely spacious, there is plenty of shade and the sanitary facilities are somewhat outdated but clean. If you have a car, the campsite is a perfect base to discover nice villages in the area. At the reception they have good tips and ideas.

    Camping met een grote gunfactor vanwege de superaardige mensen. Er valt nog wel wat te verbeteren; de foto’s en informatie op de website geven op dit moment echt een te rooskleurig beeld. Het zwembad bleek helaas sinds vorige week buiten gebruik, einde seizoen. Er is geen winkeltje of restaurant op loopafstand. Tegenover de receptie is nu wel een barretje waar ‘s morgens koffie en croissants zijn te krijgen. Brood kan de avond tevoren worden besteld. De kampeerplekken zijn mooi ruim, er is genoeg schaduw en het sanitair is wat verouderd maar schoon. Als je over een auto beschikt is de camping een perfecte uitvalsbasis om leuke dorpjes in de omgeving te ontdekken. Bij de receptie hebben ze goede tips en ideeën.
