  • Peaceful, spacious site on a hillside four miles from central Florence
  • City centre half an hour by bus; Siena and Arezzo 50 minutes' drive
  • Outdoor pool, restaurant, bar, play area and mini market on site
Florence… but with added fresh air? Book yourselves into Hu Firenze Certosa Camping in Town and you’ll be in a fabulously spacious and scenic spot surrounded by greenery on a hillside about four miles from the city centre. This chilled-out site is in a very strategic position for dipping in and out of Florence – you can drive into the city centre in around 15 minutes, but it's likely to be much easier to hop on the bus from a stop a few minutes’ walk away and save yourself the hassle of parking. Take in all the amazing art, architecture, food and city vibes… and then when it’s time to relax, head back into the hills and enjoy an evening soaking up the peace and the views. After a long day of sightseeing you'll no doubt be pleased to have the chance to take a nice dip in the outdoor pool, pick up a cool beer at the bar and then settle down at the restaurant for a good meal on the cool covered terrace. Breakfast is served at the restaurant too, and the site has a well-stocked mini market for self-catering supplies. Florence may be the big draw here, but you could easily use this place as a base for other Tuscany trips too, heading out into the Chianti hills for walks and wine tasting or setting off for a stroll around Siena.

What customers say

Great Florence access via shuttle. Friendly staff, clean facilities, pool, and market are highlights. Some pitches are uneven/sloped, and a few amenities are dated. The hilly grounds can be challenging to navigate.

Liked From arriving at reception we knew that this was one of the higher priced sites that we have used . We could instantly see why . The reception was friendly and gave all the info required . Upgraded to 10 amp for extra cost . Pool area was refreshing . The lifeguard was one of the most attentive pool ops we have ever seen Good with adults and kids alike. Shuttle bus to Florence was great the driver was informative.

Disliked The site is developed on a hill side so some slopes can be steep . Upgraded to 10 amp fine but the water tap area was a swamp at rear of the pitch . Pitches do need some attention as to levelling out .

Liked L'emplacement du camping (proche des bus), le cadre et la piscine (quand elle était ouverte).

Disliked A la boutique du camping : 2 employées (femmes) très très mal aimables, pas accueillantes du tout, on rentre sans réponse au bonjour et on ressort pareil et sans un sourire.
Douches : très peu de pression dans beaucoup d'entre elles, étagères cassées et non réparées dans beaucoup de douches également.
Machine à laver qui n'accepte que les 1 euro et la machine de change de monnaies qui se trouve tout en bas du camping près de la réception (pas évident de le savoir, aucune indication dans la laverie) au lieu d'en mettre près des laveries, ni le bar/restaurant ni la boutique n'ont accepté de nous faire du change.
Piscine malheureusement fermée toute une journée (sur nos 2 jours de présence avec la chaleur qu'il faisait) par "sécurité", qui aurait pu être réouverte une fois l'averse passée.

Local attractions

To Florence first, of course… the travel options here are so handy that you can easily plan to do several smaller trips or one full-on day out, depending on how long you’re staying for. The list of things to see and do is practically endless, but should certainly include things like the Uffizi Galleries, the Accademia Gallery (home of Michelangelo's David), the Ponte Vecchio, the Duomo… and plenty of stops for tasty food and drinks. Speaking of drinks, you’ll be handily close to the Chianti wineries here, so spending a day or two exploring the area, stopping in at vineyards, taking rural walks and visiting pretty villages like Greve in Chianti (half an hour’s drive) and Castellina in Chianti (35 minutes). For an insight into local food as well, tour the Museo della Pasta del Pastificio Morelli (40 minutes). A little further afield but worth the trip are other Tuscany towns and cities including Pistoia (35 minutes), Siena (50 minutes) and Arezzo (50 minutes). The intriguing Museum of Glass in Empoli (35 minutes) is worth a visit too.
