Nube d’Argento

Sorrento


Remarkably central for a campground, this sloping affair set in a ravine above the Maria Grande has pitches and wooden chalet-style bungalows spread out beneath a canopy of olive trees – a source of much-needed summer shade – and the facilities are excellent. Kids in particular will enjoy the open-air swimming pool, table-tennis table, slides and swings.
