We are planning a trip to the Italian Lakes in September and wondered if anyone had any advice on campsites. We are thinking of Lake Como but haven't made any definite arrangements yet. We are looking for a family friendly site with a pool for the children but don't want anything too big. Any advice would be really appreciated, Andrew.

We are going to Piantelle at Lake Garda on Thursday.  We chose this site because it's a small family run site, but also has a pool, shop and restaurant.

Check out their website they have plenty of photos.

Rae - did you get the vouchers I sent you? Haven't heard from you so I thought you'd already gone and I'd missed you.

Hi Andrew

In 2006 we stayed at Camping La Riva on the river where it flows into the northern end of lake Como.  A very pleasant family run site with shops, including hypermarket nearby.  I've put a review in the campsite search section.  We had a very pleasant large riverside pitch with lake and mountain views.

I'd highly recommend this site and gladly go back.  We, also, stayed in 2007 at Campeggio La Riva San Pietro at Marone on Lake Iseo.  Lakeside pitch with views to die for and very friendly English speaking family owners.  Again highly recommended and review in campsite search.

We loved Lks Iseo and Como.

Have good hols

Tim (Currently lakeside pitch on Lake Annecy - time to go the Zodiac is bobbing invitingly in the lake 10 metres away)
