Private beach with direct access to the lake, the jetty, the toilet and the beach bar
One of the static caravans

  • Highly scenic site on the south-western shore of Lake Maggiore
  • Football field and well-equipped beachfront playground
  • Wakeboarding school plus private lake beach with beachfront bar
Bordered by the Ticino River and the Ossola mountains, this roomy lakeside site in Castelletto sopra Ticino has a good range of water- and land-based activities for all ages and abilities right from the site and within very easy reach. Camping Lido Verbano lies on the south-western shore of Lake Maggiore, which mirrors a landscape of pine forests and ancient mountains, 20 minutes' drive from the nearest international airport and right next to lots of shops, bars and good restaurants in the town. Not that you necessarily have to go searching for a bar or restaurant, as the Verbano Beach Bar is open during high season. The Verbano Self Restaurant is also open at varied times and days between mid March and early October. Visitors can spend their days tackling the waves with the site's own wakeboarding school, which offers lessons with its friendly instructors if needed. For those who fancy having a go at other watersports during their hols, there are lots of schools along the lakeshore that offer lessons in pursuits such as canoeing, waterskiing, sailing, yachting, diving and snorkelling. For two-wheelers and peeps à pied, a scenic path that's directly accessible from the park winds its way around the lakeshore to make the most of the spectacular views. There's also a private and gently sloping grassy beach with a well-equipped playground, which means that the kids can muck about while parents lounge around with peace of mind. A tennis court and a football field are also on site, and boats can be boarded at the site's modern jetty. Friendly dogs are very welcome – in fact, they're so welcome that they have two dedicated areas: one near the central bar and another area opposite the beach. Barbecues are allowed, and you can pick up your bits from a shopping mall near the resort. Pitches look out over the lake, but they are arranged in four rows so you won't necessarily have an uninterrupted view.

Liked: Der Campingplatz hat alles, was man braucht, von Wassersport angeboten über ein Restaurant und einen super schönen Zugang zum See. Uns und unserem 4-Beiner hat es super gefallen! Die Stellplätze waren groß und durch die vielen Bäume sehr schattig. Die Nächte waren angenehm ruhig und auch am Tage konnte man super entspannen. Wir haben viele nette Leute kennengelernt und das Personal war auch sehr freundlich. Gern wieder!

Power optional grass campsite (lake view)

Liked: Trevlig Beach-bar.

Disliked: När jag bokade platsen betalade jag för beachfront men fick inte det. Såg inte vatten från vår plats alls. Gillade heller inte att det var många hundar som använder badet, då dessa var tillåtna. Ganska liten strandremsa och trång känsla. Aldrig tyst på denna camping pga för mycket folk, och frekvent med flygplan som lyfter ovanför.

From the manager: Dear Guest , thank you for your review! In response we would like to inform you that you did not book a beach pitch but a lake pitch, however, you were allocated a pitch in the second row from which you can see the lake. We are a pet friendly campsite so dogs are welcome inside. The beach is a grassy beach just the right size to accommodate all our guests. Malpensa airport is 20 kilometres from here so there are planes taking off and landing. We would like to take this opportunity to wish you a good continuation. Andrea, Erica and Staff

From the manager: Dear Guest, thank you for your review! We are pleased that you have appreciated our Beach Bar service which is committed to freshness and quality. We are sorry that you found the pitches too close to each other, in fact they are large pitches so that everyone has their own space. Check-in is when the guest is welcomed and we always explain the campsite and all the facilities in detail. As far as the lakeshore is concerned, we have a large beach where you can sunbathe and relax and for walks there are many green areas in the vicinity of our campsite. We would have been happy to tell you about them if only you had asked us. We would like to take this opportunity to wish you a good continuation and to send you our best regards, Andrea, Erica and Staff

From the manager: Cher client, Nous vous remercions pour votre commentaire ! Nous sommes heureux que vous ayez apprécié notre camping et la proximité du lac. Nous sommes désolés que les emplacements n'aient pas été à votre goût, nos emplacements sont de différentes tailles et il y a des emplacements qui accueillent des campeurs jusqu'à 8m de long. Les toilettes sont nettoyées tous les jours et plusieurs fois par jour et, en cas de manque de papier hygiénique, nous aurions apprécié que vous nous le signaliez afin que nous puissions en fournir. Nous sommes désolés pour la longue attente à l'enregistrement mais les procédures de réception prennent le temps d'expliquer en détail tous les services de notre camping. Quant au souffleur de feuilles, nous trouvons cela un peu inhabituel à 1 heure du matin, mais nous avons un numéro de réponse 24 heures sur 24 et nous aurions été à votre disposition si vous l'aviez signalé. Nous profitons de l'occasion pour vous souhaiter une bonne continuation et vous adresser nos meilleures salutations. Andrea, Erica et le personnel

Liked: Nice location on river/lake, friendly staff.

Disliked: Restricted to site unless you walk out onto busy main road. i paid through pitch up and site wanted a holding charge because the money hadnt landed in the sites account even though i had confirmation showing 0 balance and card payment statement ! I refused to pay additional money .

From the manager: Dear Guest, thank you for your review! We are happy to know that you enjoyed our facility overlooking the lake as well as that you found our staff kind. Regarding the issue of payment, unfortunately until we receive payment from Pitch up we hold (through the pre-authorisation procedure) the amount of the stay from the guest which we then release as soon as we physically receive the amount from Pitch up. We hope to have you back with us soon and hope you have a good summer! Greetings, Andrea, Erica and Staff

Local attractions

On the south side of the Alps, Lake Maggiore straddles the border between Italy and Switzerland; it's Italy's second largest lake and the largest in southern Switzerland, and offers a whole heaps of watersports activities at the schools and centres that lie along the lakeshore, such as canoeing, waterskiing, sailing, yachting, diving and snorkelling. When you're up for a spot of town-based history you can visit one the primary towns on Maggiore's southern shore, Arona, a fast five kilometres away, for strolls around its lakeside promenade, pretty piazzas and old winding streets – from here the views of the lake and the surrounding mountains are utterly smashing. For a day out with the kids, Pombia Safari Park (15 minutes' drive) houses a huge array of animalia, from zebras and camels to rhino, ostriches, amphibians and fish; there's also an amusement park here with classic rides such as log flumes, a pirate ship, a ferris wheel and a go-karting track for fun-fuelled family competition.
