Not amazing. Here’s what I wish I had known before I booked:
Pros
Chalet was clean
Bed was comfortable
Plenty of beds at the pool which stayed open until 8pm
Cons
Getting to Florence was a bit of a nightmare. There is no shuttle from the campsite even though it states that there is on their website and on the information leaflet we received on arrival. The campsite states that it is minutes from Florence. It is. Many, many minutes (about 35) on the public bus which is hot, overcrowded and unreliable. I would not have booked this campsite had I known how uncomfortable the daily journey to and from Florence would be. Also, you must buy a ticket before you get on to the bus. We didn’t know this on our journey from the train station and were fined. There were ticket inspectors on about half of the buses we took and they fined tourists on every journey we saw them on. This was not the fault of the campsite but if they had included that information on their website in the section about how to get there that would have been extremely helpful.
The campsite itself is fairly basic which is ok if you are not staying long and are spending the day in Florence but once you arrive back in the evening the only place to eat is the restaurant. If you don’t have a car there is nowhere else close by. We didn’t cook as we were only staying for 4 nights and we stayed later in Florence and ate there for a couple of those nights.
Not a great experience - wouldn’t recommend.
