About this campspace

What I love the most of my place is the century-old park. I never get tired to re-explore its corners, looking for butterflies, woodpecker nests, and listening to dormice and owls during the night. Spending time restoring crumbling stone-works and challenging with sharp blades Mother Nature's attempt to transform the park in a jungle.
Tuscany? vineyards? Chianti? Sergio's Il Cellese, cellars and wine-tasting, is at ground-floor. Just give a look at his web page.

Perfect for...

Those in search of space and tranquillity

Male, Italian, born in '52 right here, retired....mmh, what else?....you may ask me!
ah, I like bird-watching.

Tips

  • Several meters below your feet excellent wine will wait for you. "Il Cellese" Chianti is produced and aged in subterranean cellar and the wine-tasting has recently been inaugurated. No extra charge for a visit.

  • Safely hiking through the countryside out of paved roads along the old transhumance trail.

Thank you Carlo, it was great to meet you.

The place is near Sienna, Pisa and Firenze.

The equipment is simple but we could access electricity, shower and fridge/cooking place. The place for the tents has lot of shadow, it was very good but foresee anti-mosquito!

The host, Carlo, was really friendly.

How was the contact with the host?
Perfect, we just regret we didn't take more time to speak with him, he was very friendly.

Tips for new guests?
Mosquitos !

We had a wonderful time staying in Carlo's garden. The place is perfect for a family tent. Carlo is kind and very helpful. He recommended to us places to visit and we weren't disappointed. We loved every minute of our stay in Tuscany. Thank you Carlo.

How was the contact with the host?
Very good from the first minute of booking, all details how to get there are perfectly prepared.

Fine! Good communication but also respect for privacy.

Great if you don't want to be in the crowd.

Beautiful place between the trees and near a beautiful house. Close to the highway, but you don't hear anything about it.
We could use the communal kitchen and bathroom.

How was the contact with the host?
Perfect and friendly. Also speaks (a little) Dutch.

Tell us about your experience
It was a very cute place, nice for people who like to be surrounded by nature. Unfortunately there was not a lot of water and the hygene wasn’t that great in the shared bathroom. It’s also good to know that in summer there are a lot of mosqito’s.

How was the contact with the host?
Carlo is a very sweet and open host. He gives you nice tips of the surrounding and he is very relaxed.

Tips for new guests?
If you don’t like touristic big camp sites this is the place to be. It has a beautiful surrounding and it’s very private. 

If hygene and comfort is important to you during camping this is maybe not the best place.
