Camping Royal

Set in the peaceful village of Pettenasco, just steps from the shores of Lake Orta, Camping Royal is a welcoming lakeside campsite designed for relaxing holidays in northern Italy. The site offers traditional camping pitches for tents, caravans, and motorhomes, as well as fully equipped mobile homes for guests who prefer extra comfort. The atmosphere is friendly and informal, making it ideal for couples, families, and nature lovers looking for a peaceful base near the lake.

One of the highlights of Camping Royal is its modern swimming pool, created for guests who prefer a quieter alternative to the public lake beaches. Surrounded by greenery, it offers a refreshing space to cool off during warm summer days. The campsite also provides:

• A children’s playground
• A multi-use outdoor sports field for football and volleyball
• Evening entertainment and animation activities during the high season
• A well-stocked mini market/shop for daily essentials
• A rustic communal hall (“Rustic”) for snacks and social moments
• Clean and efficient sanitary facilities with hot showers
• Laundry service
• Wi-Fi internet access

The entire structure is carefully maintained, and the staff are known for their attentive and helpful service. The campsite is not a large-scale holiday park but rather a medium-sized, relaxed camping environment where guests can truly unwind. If you are looking for a Lake Orta camping holiday with swimming pool, sports facilities, and mobile home options, Camping Royal is a fantastic choice.

Camping Royal enjoys an excellent position close to Lake Orta. The lakeshore is within easy walking distance (approximately 300–500 metres depending on your pitch location), where you can swim, relax, or enjoy lakeside strolls.

The charming centre of Pettenasco is just a few minutes away on foot (around 10–15 minutes). Here you’ll find:

• Local restaurants and pizzerias
• Lakeside bars and cafés
• Small grocery shops and services

One of the most famous attractions in the area is Orta San Giulio, located about 4 km from the campsite (approximately 10 minutes by car). This picturesque medieval town is known for its narrow cobbled streets and beautiful views over Isola San Giulio, the small island that sits in the centre of Lake Orta and can be reached by boat.

For broader exploration, Lake Maggiore is around 25–30 minutes by car, offering access to the famous Borromean Islands. Nature lovers can head up to Mottarone (approx. 30–40 minutes by car) for panoramic mountain and lake views, hiking trails, and cooler alpine air.

The region is also known for gastronomy, local festivals, and wellness centres, making it perfect for combining outdoor adventure with authentic Italian lifestyle experiences.

Camping Royal is open seasonally (typically spring through early autumn), making it ideal for summer camping holidays in Piedmont. The campsite offers pitches for tents, caravans, and motorhomes, as well as mobile home accommodation. Early booking is recommended during peak summer months, especially July and August.

Key practical points for your stay:

• The swimming pool is available during the summer season (weather dependent).
• Sanitary facilities include hot showers and laundry service.
• Wi-Fi is available on site.
• A mini market provides basic groceries, but larger supermarkets can be found a short drive away.
• Evening entertainment may be available in high season.

The campsite provides a relaxed family-friendly atmosphere rather than a party environment. It’s particularly suited to guests looking for lake views, outdoor activities, and cultural day trips.

Whether you come with a motorhome, caravan, tent, or book a mobile home, Camping Royal offers a comfortable base to discover Lake Orta and the wider Piedmont region. If you are dreaming of a lakeside camping holiday with swimming pool, Italian charm, and mountain scenery — this is the place to reserve your pitch.
