I was looking at Hostels for my Italy trip and came across quite a few camp grounds. Anybody have experience with camp grounds in Italy. I want to get an idea of secure they are.. or do they lockers for luggage storage as well? How’s the sites though.. fairly clean? I was thinking of maybe doing one or two camp grounds if the weather is fairly nice. Please help by giving some comments.
Cheers!

my wife and i stayed at one when we backpacked thru europe. it was in Rome but i cant remember the name. it was sooo much fun! we stayed in rome for 4 days and only left the campground one day! it was so much fun. pools and volleyball and drinking and bbqing with all the backpackers. as far as security i didnt see any lockers but i didnt look. we just kept our stuff in the tent and it was fine. i highly recommend it!

Campgrounds across all europe range from temporary sites in soccer fields (i.e Bari) to sites with showeers, cafes, laundry facilities, etc. Most large cities have campgrounds in town or very nearby. Near Rome I’ve stayed at Camping Castelfusano on the seashore…a short bus ride into the centr of the city and cheap compared to hotels in Rome:
