For more information about me and my campspace, I would like to refer to the video that is visible on my page.
The location is located 500m from a beautiful nature reserve where you can cycle or walk to your heart's content. The 14 chapels and the castle of Vorselaar are certainly worth a visit.
De Molen van Hool is located on the border between Vorselaar and grobbendonk and also offers beautiful walking routes in a peaceful atmosphere along the water. This is also a drop-off point for kayaks and canoes that can be rented for a fun day out.

we were welcomed with Kempian hospitality at Joran's campspace. Basic, pure nature, beautiful location; we ended the evening with a chat and a nice locally brewed beer. Thank you for the accommodation for the horses!

Clear and unconstrained
Tips for new guests?
You come here for peace and nature; the toilet is very basic; to pump up pump water yourself, but that's why you also go to a back2basic place!

Very pleasant experience! Basic clean meadow with toilet-hut and groundwater pump in the middle of nature. We have not been in the shed where you can drink or play games. Super friendly welcome and very helpful guys. We will definitely go back…Recommended for those who love real camping!

Beautiful place, you have everything you need at hand. The one star that fell is because of the very tall grass that we almost got stuck in. Mowing a path to the toilet and clearing our spot would have been enough. So you may come across some cutlery and pickets that we didn't find...
How was the contact with the host?
Very smooth! Responds quickly, received very nice additions to walks and activities in the area.
Tips for new guests?
Bring plenty of drinking water

Camping on a meadow with very basic facilities.
How was the contact with the host?
Easy communication with Joran. He was not around though.
Tips for new guests?
Lukewarm showers do cost extra and do not have any view protection in the middle of the social area. So bring your swimsuit if you don’t want to stand completely naked in the meadow (we were alone but could become less private when other guests are there, too).

Hey Isabella,
Thanks in advance for the review.
The fact that a higher price is charged for the showers is also clearly stated on the site. I am glad that you enjoyed your stay.
Greetings

It was a great experience. We were able to find a good spot under the trees in the shade to avoid the heat of the sun. The grass had just been mowed, so it was flat. We thoroughly enjoyed the sunset and sunrise.
How was the contact with the host?
Very good and simple, Joran came by to explain various things.
For the rest we could go ahead.
Tips for new guests?
A good and quiet location in a wooded area.

Nice and quiet place, there were several campers present but because of the space you were not bothered by each other.
How was the contact with the host?
All communication was via whatsapp, everything was well explained.
The wrong meadow was fertilized and Joran has solved this by letting us know that we could stand on another meadow, and has offered us all a drink to make up for it.
Tips for new guests?
Just enjoying!

It was a pleasant stay on the meadow . What I have experienced as a minus is that the toilet cubicle is just a bit too small for a guy of 1m90. Both in large and in width
How was the contact with the host?
The contact with the host was not too bad , the questions were answered almost immediately , only I have not personally seen Joran .
Tips for new guests?
Take water with you , because the water at the pump is not drinkable , you can only use it for washing dishes . Also bring something to fill the evening with, I forgot :p

Hi Tom,
I'm glad you enjoyed your stay and the peace and quiet on the meadow. My apologies for not getting there in person that day. Since you didn't arrive until 7 pm, I was already at a restaurant with family. That is why you received a clear message from me in advance with all the information about the meadow and where you could position yourself.
As for the drinking water, this was already indicated in the descriptions on campspace.
Hopefully you found something while geocaching.
Kind regards
Joran

Enjoyed a night on the green meadow. Peace, really no car traffic, beautiful view and long evening sun, right on the hiking nodes and the beautiful nature reserve Lovenhoek is nearby. Toilet is very basic. Pump water is useful for washing dishes, but showering is not really possible. So basic, but nice place!
How was the contact with the host?
Very good. Always quick response and friendly reception. Also great tips for exploring the area.
Tips for new guests?
It might be best to check in advance whether the grass is tall or short. Not everyone finds tall grass pleasant to camp in :-). However, that is not a problem with a bus.

Thank you for your review! We have already mowed the grass on the side.

Nice location between the fields, unfortunately the field was very soggy in some places, luckily our car was equipped for that. After reporting to the host, he was happy to offer us another spot on the meadow.
How was the contact with the host?
The host was very responsive and gave a clear explanation at the beginning via Whatsapp.

The summer bar in Grobbendonk is a must, within cycling distance of the Campspace

The place is beautiful, quiet and close to beautiful hiking trails. The facilities are very much back to basic; price-quality is rather out of balance in our opinion.
How was the contact with the host?
Only had short contact via whatsapp, did not see anyone else.
Tips for new guests?
There is no electricity available. And bring your own toilet paper…

LEAVE NO TRACES
Together we keep the meadow clean, both for the next guests and certainly for the horses. We use this piece to provide them with hay in the winter months. So don't throw anything on the floor, dog feces should also be cleaned up. Ashtray can be provided for smokers.
NOT TO LOUD
We ask to take into account any other guests who also come here for the rest. Feel free to come and have a party on request in "the barn", but keep it quiet on the meadow.
PARKING
On arrival you will receive a number where you can put your tent, car or camper. Please stand in front of the sign (on the mowed area). We do this to avoid damage to the meadow.
