Description

DON'T GO ON THE WRONG VACATION!

BEFORE MAKING ANY DECISIONS, PLEASE READ THIS DOCUMENTATION IN DETAIL.
This is not a commercial site.
WE WELCOME YOU TO OUR HOME.
We'll be close by, in complete discretion, without interfering in your organization, your privacy or your project, BUT AVAILABLE 24H/24H IF YOU ASK US, to help, advise or guide you.

On our property, with a deliberately limited number of campers (10 to 25 people per day, depending on the busy tourist season in the region), we want to share with you the riches of a region, its landscapes and the kindness of its people, in an unspoilt setting, far from any nuisance.

Our primary motivation is to enable travelers to enjoy an exceptional setting and environment.
For this reason, we only welcome travelers for a period of TWO NIGHTS MINIMUM ON SITE. (We do not accept one-night stays).

Our 3-hectare terraced plot is situated in a valley with a small river running through it.
There are no immediate neighbors, no nearby roads, and it's in the heart of the Parc Naturel des Cinq terres.

Unmarked tent pitches ranging in size from 40 to 150 m² ensure peace, discretion and silence.
ensure peace, discretion and silence.

TO AVOID ANY MISUNDERSTANDING
AND TO PRESERVE THE TRANQUILLITY OF THE SITE AND OUR GUESTS
Every "camper" wishing to stay on our site at "Castiglione Chiavarese" declares that he/she has read and accepts the following general conditions of stay:
We welcome you to our private campsite.

VERY IMPORTANT :
OUR ORGANIZATION AND PERSONAL CONSTRAINTS OBLIGATE US TO ASK YOU TO TAKE ALL NECESSARY PRECAUTIONS TO BE PRESENT AT 4:30 PM ON THE DAY OF YOUR ARRIVAL.
Unfortunately, we will not be able to welcome you beyond this time, nor, depending on circumstances, on the following day(s).

We do not accept bulky "traditional" camping cars or caravans.

VANs" or converted vehicles are welcome.

We do not recommend long or heavy trailers, which will require a certain amount of dexterity on your part to access our pitches.

A MAXIMUM OF ONE VEHICLE AND PASSENGERS PER SITE AND BOOKING. Additional vehicles and passengers require an additional DIFFERENTIAL RESERVATION.

Access from the village is via a small tarmac road. Because of the exceptional tranquility of the area, the last hundred meters to our property are on a private, slightly sloping, unpaved road, which is perfectly passable.

Your pitch must be vacated by 2 p.m. on the day of your departure.

No individual electric sockets on pitches. Numerous sockets are available in the sanitary facilities and communal areas (suitable power only for telephones, computers, razors, kettles, dryers, etc.). Not for electric hotplates).


Most of our pitches are large enough for cars. If not, cars will be parked safely and close to your equipment.


For safety reasons and to ensure the well-being of our guests, children must remain under the supervision of their parents at all times, and must not wander the site alone or disturb the peace and quiet.

Dogs are welcome, provided they do not bark. Their owners do not allow them to roam outside the site. If they systematically accompany their owner when he/she is out and about.

    He greets people like a GO!
    He knows his region like the back of his hand and is the king of good tips!
    The pitches are great!
    The sanitary facilities are top-notch and extra clean.
    He provides fridges, which is cool because we were there during a heatwave, so it was very much appreciated!
    The river with its basin at the bottom of the site is a welcome refresher.

  • Great place! There's everything you need to be happy, everything is well organized and even music in the showers, a luxury!
    We visited the Cinque Terres villages by bus and train on Serge's good advice. We had a very good pizza at the bar in Castiglione Chiavarese, and not at all expensive! We did our shopping in the village's two small grocery stores and refreshed ourselves in the river below Serge's property.
    A little paradise that we really enjoyed.

  • What can I say about these 3 days? Everything here is atypical, charming and relaxing! First Serge, our host! What a character!!! A real adventurer who, under his gruff exterior, is a charming man who always gives good advice!
    The setting! At the end of a road, at the end of the village, after the "l'Amore" bend, Serge has created a haven of peace! A few terraced pitches slope gently down to a refreshing stream????!
    Impeccable sanitary facilities and a convivial space under the pretty covered terrace to share with others! All amenities, sockets, fridges... And lots of useful information to help you enjoy the area and get out and about! Our only regret is not having been able to stay longer to get to know Serge better!
    We'll be back with pleasure!

  • A really lovely place, very serene, with narrow terraces leading down to a river where, at this time of year, there's still a tiny pool of water with lots of little fish, which you shouldn't forget when you go for a swim, a very pleasant place to cool off.

    As the description indicates, the site offers every comfort in pretty wooden cabins.
    Serge, the host, keeps everything clean, and it's up to everyone to do the same.
    I really appreciated Serge's spirit of relaxation and respect for everyone and everything! ???? I can see the years of experience! And that's great!

    The site is far enough away to be quiet and perfectly located for visits to any destination, thanks to bus and train connections.
    Serge has put everything in place with descriptive sheets to explain everything according to your destinations, and also gives good local addresses for eating among other things.

    In short..... a big thank you Serge for everything you offer to travelers.

  • Serge is very nice but gives too much information both in writing before your arrival and verbally once you're there (too much information kills information).
    The site is very beautiful and very well laid out.
    Be careful, the road is very difficult with a large vehicle.

    Small, winding road to get there, but it can be done! We would recommend

  • As described, you arrive in a quiet, natural setting, with the sound of cicadas. First home-camping experience for us. We stayed an extra night to explore the area. Far from the hustle and bustle of the villages of the Cinque Terre, which are accessible by coach and then train as described, it's pleasant to return to Castiglione in the evening. We loved everything about it, from the pizzas at the local bar to the wine cellars in the next village, and the kids playing in the river - in short, we can't recommend it highly enough!

Super-clean toilets and simple but well-thought-out facilities, nothing is missing. The icing on the cake was the fact that several of the families present at the camp were musicians. This gave us the opportunity for some great musical sharing. A real treat!

  • Concerning the uneasiness we felt during our reception, we spoke directly with Serge.

    The setting of the site is soothing, calm and in the middle of nature.
    Beware of the configuration of the place which requires a good mobility. The site is on a slope and the sanitary facilities/common area are located at the top of the site.

    Close to the train station to visit the 5 lands. Serge's advice for parking and getting there is good.
