  • Family-friendly site on the shores of Ghirla lake
  • Within an hour's drive of Maggiore, Lugano and Como lakes
  • Swimming pool, playground and shop; bar and pizzeria
They’re a modest lot at Campeggio Tre Lago. On the shores of little Ghirla lake, and within half an hour’s drive of the bigger Lugano and Maggiore, this luscious Lombardy site can indeed advertise triple aquatic attractions. It could equally add another seven bodies of water to the count too though, for this is Italy's lake district, where elegant old towns line the shores and wooded mountains hide waterfalls and ancient sanctuaries. You’ll be busy with all those lakes to get round, and the team at Campeggio Tre Lago have created a base that’s well set up for recharging in peaceful surroundings. With the waters of Ghirla a short wander away, you can spend whole days sunning, splashing, swimming and fishing without stepping into a car. That’s also true of more practical matters like mealtimes. Why interrupt lazy lakeside days with supermarket runs when you can stock up at the on-site shop or, for additional ease, sidle over to the restaurant for pizzas? If you do like a spot of DIY dining, shops are five minutes’ drive away in Ghirla and barbecues are allowed on site. For those folk not satisfied with lakeside basking and leisurely feasting, there’s a small swimming pool, volleyball and basketball courts to get bouncing on, and a kids’ playground for climbing, sliding and swinging.

What customers say

Great campsite with roomy spots by Lake Ghirla, offering private swimming access. Staff are friendly & helpful, with good value. Facilities are clean but dated. Enjoy the calm, though some noise & dated amenities are noted. Perfect for exploring!

Liked Really friendly and helpful staff.
Beautiful surroundings and good pitch.
Lake was lovely. Little restaurant on site did nice pizzas and also fabulous staff.
All facilities very clean.

Disliked The pool had no water in when we visited. There were also only a couple of toilets in the toilet block - just a warning to others! ( rest were holes in floor style). Also hot showers were on a timer - which took us a few mins to work out initially.

Powered grass and earth campsite

Liked Large pitches with shade and sun which you can choose yourself.
Access to the beautiful lake Ghirla for swimming, picnics, sunbathing or just taking in the view
Walking and cycle trails direct from campsite
Staff were good and some very good English
Good re cycling, rubbish disposal and fill up / waste water area

Disliked Showers were a weird system of pushing buttons and selecting shower cubicle. Failed to work one day but staff sorted it out. Seemed to be random on and off shower flow.
Noise was an issue when in a tent. Road noise particularly very loud motorbikes, planes. TV noise from campers in tents..

Powered grass and earth campsite

Liked Reasonable value, bar was a bonus and staff were very pleasant, especially on check in.
Probably a nice space for families especially with a private access to the lake.

Disliked Facilities were a bit tired, there was about 10 toilet cubicles but half of them were stand up. No hot water at the washing up sinks and showers were okay but again a bit tired looking with a few broken

Powered grass and earth campsite

Liked Bello verde e silenzioso con un bel po di spazio tra i pitch. Anche i cani si sono comportati bene! Ho dormito bene e ho apprezzato molto la posizione.

Disliked Frustrante la doccia che si spegni dopo troppo poco tempo..ho dovuto mettere il accappatoio quando ero tutto insaponata e uscire fuori dalla doccia per riattivarla. Un po scomodo poi se non puoi portare il tuo mangiare con te non essendoci un negozio e con il bar che offre solo panini e pizze (e brioche su prenotazione) non hanno neppure insalate..non il massimo per chi ha un'intolleranza al glutine come me. Poi il laghetto non è molto balneabile essendo pieno di piante alte ma in cambio c'è una piccola piscina.

Local attractions

There's kayaking, windsurfing and boating galore on Lakes Lugano, Maggiore and Como (20 minutes’, half an hour’s and an hour’s drive away, respectively) plus walking and cycling trails around them; if you’ve spent the day in the hills, factor in time at the end for cooling dips and shoreside sundowners. For a quick introduction to the scenery, take the 10-minute trip to Ferrera di Varese: a short trail leads from the road to a clear lake formed as the waters of the Margorabbia river cascade through the Cunardo gorge. For bigger hikes up high, it’s half an hour to Laveno on the shores of Lake Maggiore, from where the funicular railway takes you into the trail-filled hills above. Also half an hour away, another funicular goes from the lower levels of the UNESCO listed Sacro Monte di Varese to the sanctuary at the top. It’s a cracking ride, making this sacred mountain site accessible to all, but the journey on foot ascending past 14 decorated chapels is well worth the blisters too. For a spot of city slicking an hour away, Como has a temple devoted to its most famed resident, who is not George Clooney... Visit Tempio Voltiano to learn about Alessandro Volta, inventor of the battery, tour the 14th-century frescoes in the Basilica, and after sailing round the silk museum, stock up on exquisite samples in the shops.
