Maronda Camping

Set in Campobasso’s small seaside locale of Marina di Montenero yet far from road noise and edging a golden beach, Maronda Camping’s setting is more than a smidgen serene. Its surrounding region of Molise is a place of villages on steep slopes and wild hills stretching inland to the mountainous Abruzzo National Park a two-hour drive away. On your way to this landscape that’s a favourite of lake lovers, stop in Agnone an hour from site to ring in the day with a look at the historical bells in the Giovanni Paolo II museum. Or cavort at the coast east of Maronda Camping instead: Gargano National Park and its beaches are an hour’s drive. You can also make your way to Rodi, one of the gateways to the turquoise waters of the Tremiti Isles, an hour and 20 minutes from the park. If town trips closer to home are more your thing, Termoli is worth walking around with its colourful houses, narrow alleyways and mosaic-lined cathedral set inside old fortifications. Go to the Belvedere Tower for views of the harbour, then top off your day trip with a bit of beach time at Rio Vivo...
