Off grid nature campsite in private forest garden

Italy-10089TO Trausella
The break of dawn: Wake up with the first rays of sunlight and birdsong, enjoying a beautiful view of the surrounding landscape. Here you sleep beneath the forest canopy, ideal for staying cool in the summer. This campsite consists of two hand-dug terraces in a mountainous landscape. The first is suitable as the main spot, while the second can be used to set up a small additional tent for the kids. You'll be visiting a young permaculture - foodforest project of 1.5 ha. Where all is in complete harmony with nature. The atmoshpere is magic. And you'll enjoy an incredible view. Facilities are basic yet clean. You don't have to worry about the crowds. There's no crowds here. We love our peace. Just like you. We have no more then 3 - 4 campspots. Far apart from each other. To reach us you'll have to find a little mountain road outside of Trausella. Eventhough we're well hidden. The description, provided after booking will make it easy for you to find. We're the last house at the end of the unpaved road. - To save both your car and our connection to the world. We'd ask you to leave your car at a parkspot at walking distance. You can reach us only by 4x4, offroad bike or by foot. You won't regret it. You'll find a sanctuary like place in heaven. And we'd love to meet you. Something to remember: Most people staying for one night, regret they didn't book at least two. Some Details: Surface: Gras/ forest ground - Flat and comfortable Campsite: 1 spot existing out of two terraces from +/- 30 and +/- 15 m² Type of place: Family owned small scaled santuarylike well mentained permaculture project Altitude: +/- 800 meters Activities in surroundings: Hiking, Climbing, Swimming, dining, culture.

We love sharing our off grid life with people seeking a revitalising stay in the mountains. We; Sabine and I managed to escape the Dutch lowlands to find home in the Italian Alps. We both love the nature, peace andtranquality of this place, and sharing it with happy, openminded visitors like you.

In 2023, we – Sabine and Wouter – found our home in this special place. From the very first moment, we knew we wanted to share this unique experience with others. Our guests respond with a sense of wonder, relaxation, and enthusiasm—exactly what we felt when we first arrived here. Our fully off-grid location invites you to return to simplicity. Drink clear water from our natural spring, enjoy a refreshing shower under the tree, and gather around our handmade chestnut table for a meal prepared under the open sky. On the property, you’ll find several idyllic camping spots and a charming retro caravan from the 1970s. Step straight into nature from your tent or caravan. Experience the profound silence, watch fireflies in the summer, listen to the soothing sounds of birds and crickets, or drift away as dreamcatchers gently sway in the breeze. In the surrounding area, both adventure and relaxation await: swim near the spectacular rock formations of Garavotte, admire the impressive Fondo waterfall, or explore one of the many beautiful hiking trails in the valley. Here, you’ll find exactly what you need: pure nature, peace, connection, and an unforgettable off-grid experience. We look forward to welcoming you and sharing our special place with you!

The surroundings and the view are beautiful – you are truly in the middle of the forest. Furthermore, the hosts are incredibly friendly and attentive. Unfortunately, there was a problem even before our arrival, as two bookings had overlapped. As a result, we would have had to change locations for the second night. This is quite inconvenient, as you first get settled in and then have to pack everything up again the next day. The outdoor toilet matches the photos, but because of the various pitches, other guests use it as well. Consequently, it can happen that you walk to the toilet and see the person currently using it directly. This should be mentioned in the description so that guests know what to expect. Additionally, we couldn't plug in our cool box because only a small battery is provided. This limitation should also be communicated transparently. During the night, several dogs in the area barked almost non-stop, and you can also hear the noise from a nearby road. Therefore, there wasn't much of the expected peace and quiet. Ultimately, we decided to leave after the first night because several points did not meet our expectations or were not as conveyed in the description. It's a shame, as the beautiful location and the warm hosts actually have great potential.
A truly magical place and lovely hosts ❤️
Such a beautiful hidden gem in the middle of nature. We had a wonderful stay — a spacious spot for our glamping tent, a lovely hot shower, and a delicious dinner shared with the hosts. Wouter and Sabine are such welcoming and inspirational people, and they have created a truly special place filled with warmth and charm. This place will always remain special to us, as it’s where we got engaged. Don’t miss the walk down to the riverbank — it’s absolutely magical. We highly recommend this unique and peaceful retreat, and we wish Wouter and Sabine all the best with their many projects and with continuing to make this hidden gem flourish. Warm wishes, Lulu & Andy
