  • Dog-friendly stays among chestnut trees in the village of Grondola
  • A 15-minute drive from Pontremoli; an hour to the Ligurian coast
  • Sports fields and archery on site; swim or fish in the local rivers
It’s likely you’ll soon grow fond of this farm in the Tuscan countryside. You see, the dog-friendly stays among the chestnut trees at Federico Farm in the hilly village of Grondola are very memorable indeed. Surrounded by woods and rivers, this is the place to go to get your outdoors fix… This hilly spot is usually cool and shaded, but if you need to cool down yet more, there’s a gorgeous river to bathe in a short drive away. Icier waters are in store at the Gorges of the Straits of Giaredo, 25 minutes’ drive away; thermal wetsuits may be needed for this plunge, actually. If you'd like to visit more tepid waters, it’s an hour’s drive from Federico Farm to the Liguria coast (famed for spots like Cinque Terre, which is an extra 20 minutes’ drive on top). First, get to know the local area; the site has information points if you need any pointers (like fishing in the local streams or searching for the popular local mushroom fungo di Borgotaro IGP). The farm is in the medieval village of Grondola, which has a hilltop castle abandoned in the 16th century. Stop by Pontremoli too. A 15-minute drive away, the small city has a small, steep lane leading to Castello del Piagnaro, as well as a bell tower, riverfront and a pretty piazza. In the right season, guests at Federico Farm are welcome to pick chestnuts from the trees. A fitness trail weaves through the woods for those who want to work up a sweat. There are also two sports fields for playing rugby, basketball, football and volleyball, as well as a trampoline and archery, darts, ping pong and badminton activities. A large hall hosts events and entertainment.

What customers say

Quiet campsite in a shady woodland. Reviewers love the clean site, helpful staff, and charming feel. Great facilities, including a good restaurant. Lots of family activities. Access road is tricky but manageable. Post-midnight lights are less intrusive.

Liked ​Onze 7 dagen op deze camping waren in één woord: top! Het was echt een geweldige ervaring.
​De faciliteiten zijn supergoed verzorgd en de camping heeft ontzettend veel leuke extra’s. Zo is er een sportveld en kun je gratis barbecues lenen. Je verblijft hier midden in de prachtige natuur en alsof dat nog niet genoeg is, hebben ze ook een uitstekend restaurant waar je heerlijk kunt eten. Een absolute aanrader om daar aan te schuiven!

Disliked Er is geen zwembad, maar ja er is wel een riviertje in de buurt waar je heerlijk kan zwemmen.

Powered grass and earth campsite

Liked Sehr ruhig und naturnah. Freundliches Personal. Wunderbarer Ort, um unter hohen Tannen und Kastanienbäumen die Ruhe und die Natur zu geniessen.
Einfach, sauber.
Wäre auch für sportbegeisterte Familien: es gibt ein Fussballfeld, ein Volleyball/ Federballfeld, Pingpong Tisch und 2 grosse Trampolin. Stört aber die Ruhe überhaupt nicht.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Vielen Dank, wir freuen uns über Ihre Eindrücke. Ich hoffe, Sie kommen bald wieder. Ich habe Ihnen einiges zu erzählen und Produkte mit Ihnen zu teilen. Bis bald.

Toller Platz mit sauberen Anlagen

Liked Alles!!!!
Angefangen bei Danielle,der Gastgeber,der sehr sympathisch bis hin zur Sauberkeit.Es gibt in jeder Ecke etwas zu entdecken.Und die Ruhe im Wald war das Highlight.

Disliked Die Anfahrt war sehr herausfordernd.Auf Google ist die Strecke nicht gut beschrieben,weil ein Straße einfach nie fertig gebaut wurde laut den netten Anwohner. Das hat aber nichts mit dem Campingplatz ansich zu tun,der war richtig Klasse.

Local attractions

The Ligurian coast is famous around the world, so pack your beach gear up and head off for a day trip… you could go to Porto Venere (an hour and 35 minutes’ drive) to investigate its trails, clifftop castle and dive sites or Viareggio (an hour and 15 minutes), where there’s a Carnival Museum. You’re likely to have heard of Pisa (an hour and 40 minutes) and its Leaning Tower or maybe Lerici (an hour and 10 minutes) on the Italian Riviera, where poet Percy Bysshe Shelley met his demise. Torre del Lago (an hour and a half), surrounded by woods and mountains, is lesser known but equally as stunning. Cities of arts and culture are all around too, like the walled town of Volterra (two hours and 15 minutes) and Parma (an hour and a half). Lucca (an hour and a half) has Renaissance walls and the Casa di Puccini museum, dedicated to the famed opera composer Giacomo Puccini.
