Recommendations for European summer campsite

[electricblue2017]

With swimming facilities please, willing to consider anywhere!

Tent/campervan/cabin? And who's going?

Static please, me, dh, 3 month old, 5 and 10 year olds

I love the location of Camping Bella Italia in northern Italy. It has stunning views across Lake Garda and direct beach access. Milan, Venice and Verona are all easily reachable and the airport transfer is quite short. In the summer it's pleasantly warm but not too hot that the children get uncomfortable. The homes are fully equipped and you can ask for high chairs, cot, boosters, night light, cot linen etc...
The pool complex is great and includes toddler splash facilities. Good playgrounds too and a wide range of sports as well.
The crèche takes children from 6 months and I believe it's free and so is the kids club. Babysitting is available at an additional charge.
As well as restaurants, there's a lovely little hand-made ice cream shop onsite too!

We are interrailing with the kids this summer and have booked Manor Farm campsite in Interlaken in Switzerland. It looks lovely. Guardian had a list of twenty best family campsites in Europe and I used that as a starting point.

Ricekrispie22 How old are your D.C. and is their many older children at this site 13 and 14 and much for them to do please? Also do you fly or drive and do you book with Euro Camp or another? Many thanks

@Brighteyes The first time we booked through Canvas Holidays. The second time we went directly though the campsite website. www.camping-bellaitalia.it/en/ My DC and DNs were aged 3-11 when we went here.
We flew to Verona airport which is 23km away.
There is lots for young teens, especially if they are sporty because there's canoeing, archery, tennis, volleyball, basketball etc... There is a water sports centre next door which has windsurfing, banana boating, kayaking. During the summer there is a football school for 7-17 year olds.

Ricekrispie22 Sounds ideal thanks many English speaking kids. DS more adventurous but DD isn’t.

Lovely site with day trips to Paris/Disneyland

Brighteyes There were a few other English families but we were definitely in the minority. But that's what we like to be honest.... makes it feel like more of a holiday. The sports instructors speak good English though because that's the common language that all the kids have, whether they're Italian, French, German...

I am considering a eurocamp holiday for the first time - have heard good things about yeloh
