1 Via Aldo Moro, 85024, Lavello
Been here?
A free motorhome service area mainly suited for filling and emptying rather than comfortable overnight stays. Water and electricity are available at some bays, but not every connection works; recent reports also mention problems with gray-water and toilet disposal. The parking is uneven and beside a busy road, with limited rubbish facilities. Friday’s market occupies spaces, while loud youths and music have disturbed some nights.

We filled up with water, not all oof them works, didn't test the electricity or the toilet dump area but the place is very wonky to sleep, we just keep going, not the best place really but thanks for the services.
The place is not particularly nice for spending the night! Electricity and water are available at some parking spaces. The space with the ground opening for disposing of black water was somewhat bizarrely occupied by a truck, but usable. There was a caravan directly behind it, possibly called Sindy & Roma or something similar. It is mainly suitable for filling and emptying tanks.
One of the only free service areas! There are several water and electricity points. One did not work, but the others did. We filled up. You should view it as a service area, not as a destination, but it is suitable for parking.
Not attractive but functional. The toilet dump is unfortunately blocked. Electricity and water are free. There is a market opposite on Fridays. Slightly sloped. Shops nearby.
Unfortunately, we did not like the place. The town was very dirty. Every evening, noisy youths gather here, shouting, playing loud music, and revving their engines. No gray-water disposal; the toilet pit was half full. Water and electricity do not work at all the posts. Dogs are often walked in the adjacent meadow. Nevertheless, thanks to the municipality.
We spent two nights here, good place, free electricity working, water is working. It’s missing rubbish bins.
Unfortunately, the area is overrun by cars on market days (Friday), leaving not even the space with the water outlets free. We managed to squeeze between two cars to fill up with water that day… what a shame; there is no respect.
Well-maintained parking area with eight spaces, unfortunately right beside a busy road. Water filling and emptying facilities.
Black- and gray-water disposal works, although some campers may have difficulty maneuvering. For rinsing the cassette, it is advisable to use the gray water because there is no tap dedicated solely to cleaning the cassette. The water-filling point works. The spaces are sloped, but this can be solved with leveling blocks.
Emptying a toilet is easy; there is a gray lid next to the entrance. However, it is not possible to rinse the container.
It is impossible to empty gray water. Black water can only be emptied with a cassette toilet. The parking area is spacious but sloped, even though the surrounding space is level. Electricity and water points are present, but it is unclear whether the water is potable. There is no water for rinsing a cassette toilet. Whoever created this area has no idea what a camper is, not even converted vans.
It is not possible to empty gray water. There is water at every space and electricity. Young people made noise until 1:30 a.m. What a shame.
Quiet area, but a little outside town. Electricity worked, at least at our pitch. In any case, there are contact details to call to activate the hookups. The gray-water drain looks inconvenient. Thanks to the local council for providing this service.
First of all, I would like to thank the municipality for providing this service. Unfortunately, of the four stations with two spaces each, only two have electricity and one has working water. The remaining posts have nothing. Finally, it is impossible to use the drain for gray water; it is attached to the bench and can only be used for cassette toilets.
Nice stop next to a lovely town. We arrived late and one energy station was already on. You can call the number on the small house to activate it if needed. Other campers around. Friday night was noisy due to an event with fireworks. All services worked well. No shade during the day, so we had to move for a while.
Excellent free stopping area, quiet and safe at night. Recommended.
No water today, and the gray water has to be emptied with a bucket. It is better than nothing, but not great either.
Quiet and clean place, thanks to the municipality. Too bad there are no bins; remember to take your rubbish with you.
I join in thanking the municipality. A suggestion: a bin for non-recyclable waste. Thank you. Note: the parking area is sloped.
All services free. I would like to thank the community for this service.
The place is okay for an overnight stay; apart from that, nothing special.
Street parking; today everything works as described. Nothing to add, nothing to take away.
Parking in town, large spaces, quiet area, water and electricity at every space, free of charge. Cassette-toilet cleaning is possible, although there is no water tap at the cleaning point. There is no gray-water drain. Thank you to the municipality for this place!
It would be too noisy for us to spend the night. The service point is fine, although awkward to use. If the outer space is occupied, there is barely enough room to empty the toilet. For gray water at the same drain, you have to crank quite a bit depending on the outlet. Fresh water was freely available when we were there.
Excellent free stopping area! Eight spaces with water and electricity, all working. The ground is slightly sloping but manageable. Convenient toilet drain; for rinsing, simply use the hookups with a hose. The gray-water drain is more awkward, but with some maneuvering it is possible, at least with a van. Avoid occupying the first space so that the service point remains accessible.
I agree with the positive comments about this stopping area: the free services are already an excellent reason to stop here. The only drawbacks are a group of dogs, which fortunately disappeared at 11 p.m., and a small bar opposite with benches that provide a gathering place for young people who, even on a Thursday in October, continued making noise until 3 a.m. Restaurant within 2 km.
The free electricity should not be underestimated. Overall, a fairly quiet place; having free services is no small thing, especially in an area that seems like the Wild West! If you have pets, be very careful of stray dogs; the area is full of them.
