Rapide if your around I know you will answer this. Your advise in the past has been first class.

Ok folks. I have booked a site near venice in Jan , pound / euro and cost of fuel means this is going to cost too much. Where can I go on the coast north italy east / west of Garda. Only need a pool to keep my little girl happy , seaside for us grown ups electric would be nice.

Thanks

Hi

Venice is only about 100 miles east of Garda, you won't save much by staying at Garda.

Anyway, www.campingbutterfly.it is a nice site with a pool. A bit more of a basic site is www.trevisago.nl - the latter is at Moniga del Garda and has supermarkets within walking distance.

Camping Butterfly is close to the rail station for trips out etc.

There is an "overnight motorhome park" costing 15 euro for 24 hours at Peschiera del Garda, but no facilities.

You could also stay at Lake Como - by the Swiss/Italian border - that is about 250 - 300 miles closer to Calais than Venice.

Thanks to you we went to garda last year and if you remember I told you where we ended up in moniga. Your advise was great and much appreciated. I know venice is only 100 miles or so. Distance not a problem , I have booked a site that really is more than we need by venice , lots of free ( but you pay for it ) bits . I would like a site with a pool near a beach ( does not have to be on it ) and that would do us.

The site booked is the problem, it is at the top end of the scale and given the cost of fuel and exchange rate I could do with a simple other option.

Thanks Russell for any info .

And the rest of you guys on MHF

It was Jeslo International I was going www.jeslointernational.it looked nice there, just thought you might know a place not as commercial not bothered about being a tourist. Just somewhere for my little girl to swim and mum and dad chill out.

Will look at any of your sugestions as you gave great advise before.

thanks Russell

We stopped at Camping Torre Pendente in Pisa last year. The site has a nice pool, shop and cafe/bar and its only 5 to 10min walk to the tower. It was one of the better stops during 3 weeks in Italy.

We stayed at marina di venicia in May - expensive and impressive, lovely beach, but, that whole peninsular is a mass of sites - have a good google, punta sabbiona might be worth searching on.

I know google for venice camping threw up some on the mainland just west of venice but I wasn't sure of industry round there.

FWIW we thought Garda much better. Butterfly is a gem for kids, but we got the last pitch in May.

Much shorter distance there's an impressive water park and campsites just south of Montreux on Lake Geneva. No idea of price.

thanks will have a look for it , do you have a link to it ?.

Rapide gave a link and we ended up here http://www.gardalake.it/piantelle/ and we are going back for a week this year.

Well worth the visit

We had a month at the site in my post above and loved it at Lake Garda , I just missed the sea.

Lake Garda and Como are beautiful , but I live in the peak district 5 mins and I have what a lot of MH ers drive for, lucky I know but I like the sea and fish on BBQ etc

we are going back again this year to http://www.gardalake.it/piantelle/ for ten days and if I can't find a cheaper seaside campsite then it's www.jeslointernational.it but in fairness I like simple..... only need a pool and a walk to the sea.
