Desert Lodge XL + Teeny Lodge 2-8P

We rented a safari tent through Lodge Holidays at Camping Pian di Boccio and had a wonderful holiday. The tent was really perfect. Good beds, fully furnished and everything was thought of. The pitches are beautifully situated and offer a lot of privacy. A really lovely glamping experience. One point of attention is the cooling. In Umbria it gets extremely hot in summer and the tents stand in full sun. A single fan for such a large tent is really not enough. As a result, the temperature in the tent barely dropped below 30 degrees at night, which sometimes made sleeping difficult. Camping Pian di Boccio is a beautiful, peaceful campsite right in the heart of Umbria's nature, surrounded by olive trees, walnut trees and the characteristic sound of cicadas. Even in high season we experienced an enormous amount of peace and quiet here, which we considered a real luxury. No loud entertainment, perfectly laid-out paths, an overcrowded pool or 'towel reservations'. The restaurant is very good and the staff are friendly, welcoming and helpful. At weekends, many Italian day visitors make use of the swimming pool. They took up a lot of space, both literally and figuratively, showed little consideration for other guests, and smoked a lot. This affected both safety in the pool and the atmosphere. In addition, the pool's overflow system wasn't working, as the water level was too low. As a result, the water quickly became very warm and the pool was less clean. Finally, we found the pool's opening hours (10:00 to 19:00) a bit limited during high season. On hot summer days it would be nice to be able to take a refreshing dip later in the evening too. All in all, we thoroughly enjoyed our holiday. The combination of the beautiful surroundings, the peace and quiet, the hospitality and the comfortable safari tent makes this a place we look back on with great pleasure and would definitely recommend.

The holiday lodge tents are managed by a Dutch tour operator, even though they're located on Camping Pian di Boccio. You can book directly via the lodgeholidays.nl website, but not by calling the campsite, since, as mentioned, they're managed externally. If you call the campsite, they'll give you the information described here. There are three types of tents, each equipped with all the necessary kitchen items: sheets and duvets, a fridge, a kettle, a coffee machine, outdoor chairs, a hammock, a floor cushion, a fan, a washing line, a barbecue and basic cleaning supplies: a broom, a bucket and a cloth. However, you do need to bring your own toilet paper, soap and towels (the latter can be requested separately for an extra fee when booking). We also kept our spending to a minimum. Outdoor or indoor kitchen. Sturdy construction, comfortable beds and wooden floors. Just remember that, after all, you're sleeping in a tent! However spacious, large and comfortable a tent may be, that's what it is. Temperature fluctuations and adaptability should be taken into account. Lockers are available for storing valuables, but we didn't know this and hadn't brought a lock, so we only brought a few valuables with us. Either way, nobody — I repeat, nobody — will enter your pitch. Since we're staying on the campsite, you can make use of the swimming pool, the bar, the pizzeria, the tennis court, the football pitch and the playground. The surroundings are well equipped and peaceful. An absolute must!

What a wonderful 2 weeks we had at "Pian de Boggio" in a very well-equipped tent. Fitted with a good gas BBQ, espresso machine, fridge, comfortable beds and, importantly, excellent bathroom facilities within the tent. A spacious terrace with views (from the Fatboy hammock) over the olive trees. Plenty of charming towns, delicious food and relaxing afternoons by the pool. Highly recommended!

This place is a gem if you want a quiet country setting, the owners were helpful and pretty awesome. I learned about olive agriculture. They spoke English well a nice plus. They offer a limited menu restaurant for parts of the year and a small convenience store, along with some olive oils produced from their orchards. Food at the restaurant was tasty, and I was even brought a sample of the olives they had canned. They have nice rooms, plenty of camping space, apartments, and I saw safari type tents. I didn't ask about the safari type tents or the apartments. But the standard rooms were new spacious and clean with a fridge. If I had any complaint at all it would be I had to ask for the A/C remote, the room was cool enough but really needed some air moving for me. But I found this to be trivial with how hospitable the host was. It looked like they have a very nice pool set up but I was there before the season so they hadn't finished getting it ready. I saw kids play areas, a bath house, with at least a clothes washer. They have a few animals for the children as well. The facility is a little off the beaten path, but if you want a quiet nice reasonably priced place to rest and relax, this is it. I hope one to be able to venture there again. Steve

We read some negative reviews, but we really don't agree with them. This isn't a big 5-star campsite, and that's exactly why we liked it so much. Do you want a real camping feel, super spacious pitches (never had that in Italy before) and do you love charm campsites, but with nice facilities like a good restaurant and a lovely pool? Then this is the place for you. Our kids entertained themselves at the pool and the football pitch, while we enjoyed the peace and a book in front of the tent. Run by lovely Dutch-Italian owners and surrounded by the beautiful hills and villages of Umbria. Definitely a place to go back to.

Beautiful location and beautiful, authentic surroundings! Spaciously laid-out and peaceful campsite. Lovely big pool with bar. Very welcoming and approachable family, the owners. We've now been here 3 times, with our twins — boys who were 4 and 10 back then, now 14 this campsite suits all these ages. A must. This time we had an apartment with air conditioning, on the hill. Beautiful view! But the safari tents are also very complete and are located beautifully among the olive trees. There are lots of trees on the campsite itself, so plenty of shade. Price-quality is great. Enjoy! 🇮🇹🌻☀️🧡

Neat campsite with almost exclusively Dutch guests. Plenty of free pitches. Stunning surroundings, the swimming pool is fine, the sanitary facilities are rather dated which is a shame, but they are clean. No toilet seats or toilet paper. Shower tokens due to their own water supply — that I can understand. Excellent restaurant. The route there is a bit of a challenge if you rely solely on your sat nav; make sure you approach from the village and follow the directions on the website. The last stretch is 15% uphill, which can be tricky with a caravan.

Stayed at the campsite in early July with our folding camper trailer. We got to choose our own pitch and it was still quiet on the site, lovely location with plenty to see in the area, max. 1 hour's drive away — Norcia is definitely worth a visit. The on-site restaurant is excellent, Nona cooks wonderfully, really authentic Italian dishes. We ate there several times at a very reasonable price We'll definitely be back 😎😎😎

One of my favourite campings ever! Wonderful and very helpful staff, especially the receptionist Luisa was very very nice and friendly! We got struck in the mud and were saved with the tractor! Many, clean showers, spacious pitches in the pine forest, restaurant offering delicious dinner... Nice shop with basic things but also you can buy local oil and wine as souvenirs. Thanks a lot for a great time!

Besides being a paradise in itself, the people who work here are kind, understanding and helpful. I had a bad crash with my bike and they helped me with everything, from hospital matters to keeping my belongings safe. I was visited in hospital and provided with much needed help that made my ordeal easier to deal with. Thank you for everything.
