Nuraghe Ruiu

Set in the peaceful countryside of Norbello, within the province of Oristano, Nuraghe Ruiu Villaggio Campeggio spans roughly 22,000 m². This well-loved eco-village offers a range of accommodations — from generous, shaded pitches for tents, caravans or motorhomes, to solid masonry bungalows and fully equipped “tende attrezzate” (glamping-style tents). All pitches are on flat ground, easy to access, and feature electricity columns compliant with CEI standards. Hot showers, free camper-service, potable water fountains, and free Wi-Fi throughout the property bring modern convenience to the heart of nature.

For leisure and relaxation, the campsite features a swimming pool with sunbathing area, a children’s pool, a playground for kids, and a games area (ping-pong, darts, etc.), ideal for families. On-site dining includes a bar and risto-bar/restaurant operating for lunch and dinner daily, and a communal barbecue area if you prefer to cook yourself.

If you opt for a bungalow, expect simple but functional comfort: kitchen, living/dining area, bathroom, sometimes with sleeping capacity for up to 6 people. The management of Nuraghe Ruiu also emphasises eco-friendly practices, including solar energy for electricity and water heating — a plus for environmentally minded travellers.

Nuraghe Ruiu blends the best of both worlds — immersing you in Sardinia’s wild, peaceful interior while offering the amenities and comfort you need for a relaxing, carefree stay.

From Nuraghe Ruiu, you’re perfectly positioned to explore a wide variety of Sardinian landscapes, from rolling hills and inland lakes to archaeological treasures and secluded beaches.

• The site is about 10 minutes’ drive from the small village of Norbello, where you’ll find local shops, perhaps a bar or two, and an authentic taste of Sardinian life.
• For a cultural detour, the ancient Roman baths and ruins at Fordongianus Roman Baths are roughly 25 minutes by car — a fascinating glimpse into the island’s Roman past.
• The broad, tranquil waters of Lake Omodeo lie also around 30 minutes away — a perfect spot for kayaking, canoeing or simply enjoying nature and birdwatching.
• If you crave the sea, Sardinia’s west-coast beaches are within reachable drive: from the campsite you can reach beaches like Santa Caterina di Pittinuri Beach (≈ 25–30 km) — ideal for sun, surf, or a leisurely beach day.
• For more inland adventures, local walking or cycling routes along quiet country roads offer peaceful ways to explore the hilly landscape around Norbello. The “Activity Point” (concierge desk) at the campsite can organise excursions, hikes, and sightseeing recommendations based on your interests.

With the campsite as your base, you’re free to shape your days: a mix of culture (ancient baths, rural history), nature (lake, hills, countryside), sea (beaches and coastline within reach), and genuine Sardinian simplicity.
