  • Family-friendly site 20 minutes' walk from the beach in Altidona
  • A 45-minute drive from the ferry port at Ancona
  • Swimming pool, beach shuttle bus and an excellent bar-restaurant
Who’s up for lazy days on the Adriatic coast, where the most pressing problems are to decide between sipping cocktails by the pool or taking the shuttle bus to the beach? Settle in for a suitably lengthy stay at Centro Vacanze Garden River and you’ll be able to do both (along with working your way down that cocktail list to assess which is the tastiest…). For beach days, a shuttle runs from here to the sands of Altidona, or you could stroll down there in 20 minutes or so if you wish (this has the bonus of taking you past several of the town’s cafés and gelaterias – eccellente). And for loafing-on-site days, there’s a superb spacious outdoor pool complex, with a paddling pool and a generously sized grassy sun terrace. Should you get the urge to be active, hook up with fellow guests for games of beach volleyball and football, or accompany the bambini to the indoor games room or playground. Or, if you prefer to save your energies for after dark, get ready to strut your stuff over on the disco’s dance floor. You can afford to be equally chilled about eats and drinks too: the site’s restaurant and bar serve up all day, from breakfasts through daytime drinks to an evening menu of woodfired pizza and top-notch local seafood.

Electric hardstanding and grass pitch

Liked: Level shaded pitches, clean toilets/showers, nice quiet atmosphere in motorhome area. Pool and the entertainment team were amazing, music, pool games and foam party!!. Activities for the children and a good entertainment programme in the evening with bar and restaurant reasonably priced. Nice walk along the cycle path to the local town and beach. Loan of clothes airer. WiFi in pool/bar area but didn't use it

Disliked: Could do with more info on the entertainment programme. The might have been info available we may have missed it

Local attractions

It’s highly likely you’ll be wanting to spend a hefty chunk of time on that beach, and with good reason: it’s one of those sandy stretches that runs for many a kilometre so you should find plenty of places to plonk down. For a change of scenery, the small resorts of Pedaso and Porto San Giorgio are about 15 minutes’ drive away. Leave the beach bags behind for a bit and head out for a wander in some of the local towns – there are lovely historic centres to potter through in Moresco and Grottammare, and a fab collection of alfresco art around the town in San Benedetto del Tronto (all are within 20 minutes and still allow you sea views). If you fancy escaping the coastal heat for a while, it's an hour or so's drive to get to the Monti Sibillini National Park for hikes, bike paths, rafting trips and climbing routes through the foothills and flower-filled meadows.
