Welcome to the domain of former mayor and doctor Rombauts.

Come spend the night in a large garden with fruit trees, greenhouses, many sitting areas and a small grove, where you can relax in one of the cozy corners in the green. You are welcome in your own tent, caravan or camper, or sleep well in the furnished glamping tent!

In addition to the bathroom inside, there is also a lovely outdoor shower (with hot water) and a fire pit with a grill on which you can also have a BBQ.

Cuddle dog Tito is included.

The country house is within walking distance of Lippelobos. The area is also suitable for cycling and walking tours, eg. along the center of Flanders, various castles or the breweries of Karmeliet, Malheur, Palm, Cornet and Duvel. I can also give you tips about nice coffee bars, where you can eat delicious ice cream or waffles or have cozy terraces.
...but the best part is of course relaxing in the garden itself!

There is a supermarket nearby with a bakery section (open on Sunday mornings!)

Perfect for...

Young and less young, nature lovers, people looking for a place with a vibe.

We had a super nice weekend in Esther's beautiful garden. We stood in a circle with 2 small caravans, 2 large tents and a small camper. Not many campsites in Flanders where that arrangement could / may.
The children enjoyed the garden with swimming pool, trampoline and the bush and the surprises that Esther provided.
Very nice campfire/barbecue place and a nice outdoor shower.

We were allowed to stay 4 nights in a beautiful place in the garden of our hostess and loyal 4-footer Tito and cat Pixi. lit with light bulbs that hung in the fruit trees. Nice big places.
A lovely warm outdoor shower very much enjoyed. (also shower inside but... once you've been outside you don't want anything else)
A cozy common room with many board games. Or a nice chat.

In the evening cozy by the campfire
Supermarket across the road.
Swimming pool in the garden.
Chill bed in the orchard
Beautiful forest walks.

The stay was something very special for us, because we felt really at home with Esther.
The large garden was a great playground for the children and everything is really taken care of.
We slept both in the bush and one night in the glamping tent. It's really wonderful there!
The location in the middle of the three big cities is also ideal for day trips.

How was the contact with the host?
Esther is an exceptional hostess and tends to all guest needs. In between there is still time for a conversation and we had the feeling that we could exchange ideas with her for hours ;).

Tips for new guests?
With us on Campspace "only" the bush was free.
There is forest floor in contrast to the other places, but that wasn't really a problem.
More tips:
- Test game collection
- Explore the garden and freely accessible areas of the historic house
- Caress Tito
- To make a campfire

Bye Ferdi and Sofie 🥰 These words make me warm inside! I think we feel the same about the place. Glad I was able to convey that.
I also have a lot of respect for how you treat your children.
Tito is a bit lost without his steady caresser 😆
I wish you a lot of family fun in the following places!

Beautiful location, nice large pitches with lots of privacy in a beautiful garden. The outdoor shower is DELICIOUS!

Esther is a very good, nice and pleasant host.

Tips for new guests?
It is in a village, opposite a small supermarket. Super handy for errands, but also causes some traffic noise. And there is a rooster who takes his job quite seriously. If you sleep lightly, earplugs may therefore be nice.

Saskia

Tell us about your experience
Idyllic spot among the wild flowers, or (with a tent) in the woods. We were with our camper van and enjoyed the atmosphere and the environment. The somewhat dilapidated villa (a bit haunted house/escape-room-like) contributed to this. The campfire was cozy and made for nice contact with the other tenants.

How was the contact with the host?
Esther is super friendly!

Tips for new guests?
Sanitary facilities are dated and not always clean, but the atmospheric setting makes up for it. (That's why the maximum number of stars.) The short walk in the nearby forest is nice to walk. Cycling along is also a good idea: the area is fairly flat (and therefore easy to cycle)! Tip: ask Esther about the laser guns! :-)

July 2022 · Translated from dutch

Host Esther has responded

Hi Saskia, haha yes the laser guns, direct hit!
Thanks for the honest review! There is always room for improvement 🙂 Nice to have you around the campfire.

Hidden away is Esther's large garden. It is a paradise with several spots between the fruit trees, greenhouse and wild flowers. You can enjoy yourself there. The living room is available to guests, so you can sit inside in bad weather.

The shower and toilet are in the house. Basic but functional. The house needs some renovation, which makes the whole look a little less hygienic here and there. Nevertheless, we had a very nice time and would like to visit again.

How was the contact with the host?

Very extremely hot during my stay, because my dog can't stand this I left earlier, only praise for the host, she couldn't do anything about the heat of course. She wanted to give back part of my money, but I thought that was nonsense, she can't do anything about the weather either. I can just come back for free, very sweet! It is a pity that there is nowhere near a swimming pool for the dog. Plus, the dog is allowed to run loose all over the property.

How was the contact with the host?
Esther is very hospitable and helpful, she also just wanted to look after my dog when I had to go shopping.

Tips for new guests?
Definitely book for the agename, helpful host and the beautiful spot on the field. The area is less suitable for dogs that like to play in the water.

Short camping weekend to try out our new tent. Very nice location in the center of Belgium! Spacious green garden and spacious places on the grass and between the fruit trees..., even a forest to store your tent! Super cool that the dog was as welcome as we were!

I was at Esther's for quite a long time with my two dogs and partner - you'll have the best trip to Belgium staying here!! We absolutely loved our stay. Esther, her happy dog Tito, and cuddly cat Pixie are simply the best and very welcoming. Came with my caravan which was super easy to drive onto and around the property. Also, the outdoor shower is the best!! We had a blast having this site as our base while exploring the equally distanced cities of Brussels, Antwerp, and Ghent. What a lovely time!! I will most definitely be returning if/when I'm in Belgium again.

How was the contact with the host?
Esther is just the best. Communication was quick and friendly. I arrived in the evening before Esther returned from a trip and was given instructions to make myself at home nevertheless.

Tips for new guests?
In case you are working remotely (as I do), just know that there is wifi in the communal space, but it isn't necessarily strong (you can still access the internet, just with a sprinkle of patience). BUT don't let that deter you from visiting!! There are plenty of wonderful cafes around (especially the one that Esther works at - highly recommend) and the cities with tons of cafes with wifi are not far away at all.

It was very nice to camp with Esther, even in winter it was good to stay. Esther is very hospitable, helpful and lives in a nice spacious place, close to both nature and cities. Opposite is a nice supermarket with delicious Belgian beers :-)

Esther is a very jovial host, you immediately feel welcome. We also got good tips for a quick bite to eat.

It was our first campspace experience and it immediately hit the mark. Esther has a beautiful garden and the house is unique, never seen anything like it. The first evening we played games with Esther and gave the dog Tito a lot of cuddles. We'll be back next year anyway

How was the contact with the host?
Very pleasant, clear description and super relaxed

Tips for new guests?
Just go, also now with autumnal weather picking mushrooms and collecting wild chestnuts

A very nice camp space! Esther shares her (very spacious) garden with campers. There is enough space to have privacy in this beautiful garden. Esther's house is truly beautiful! There is also a very sweet dog, Tito, who sometimes comes to greet you at your camping spot. All in all, this was my favorite campspace of our trip and I'll hopefully be back!

How was the contact with the host?
Super: Esther responds quickly. Once you have arrived you will be given a guided tour. Esther also has information in the common room about nice places in the area; nice if you want to discover the area!

We stayed with our family and our dog in the tipi tent and loved it! Good beds, lovely garden, ... the camping hour and the outdoor shower were also tried and found to be super good! Esther lives in a fantastic old but charming house and you can also use the old living room, bathroom, toilet! Super handy in bad weather! Everything is available.

How was the contact with the host?
Esther is a sweet, funny hostess who welcomed us very warmly. Her dog Tito is also a treasure! Esther gives you great tips and addresses to do, to eat, ... we tried her breakfast for the guests: that is definitely recommended.

We had 3 very nice days at Esther's campsite. She really lives in a beautiful and special house and the garden is really great. Lots of space, a lovely campfire place and a very sweet dog. Opposite is a very extensive supermarket with a fresh bakery, ideal for a fresh breakfast. The only downside is that the house is right next to the municipal landfill and which is of course open in the morning on weekdays and produces some noise. You will certainly not be bothered by the weekend.

There are many beer breweries and many large cities in the area, so there is something for everyone. Definitely recommended to stay in the garden of Doktor Rombauts!

How was the contact with the host?
Esther was very relaxed, responded very quickly to messages and came to have a nice chat at the campfire in the evening. A luxury is also that there is a living room for guests, ideal for when the weather is bad.

Tips for new guests?
Highly recommended! Lots of space and personal atmosphere. Tips: get meat for the bbq at Magda's (the supermarket) and roast it at the campfire

We stayed with Esther for 3 nights with our camper and it was lovely! What a peace and space we experienced. And sat by the campfire for 1 evening with the fellow guests. Esther is a sweet and committed woman and wants the best for her guests. In addition to the very beautiful garden with spacious camping pitches, the warm outdoor shower was a pleasant surprise. We would love to come back!

Behind a large fence there is a very large garden hidden. (And a beautiful house!) First we met Pixie, the house cat, who showed us where the toilet was. Our camper fitted perfectly in the driveway, but we were allowed to sleep in a tipy tent with Esther on the property! Actually, we first lingered in the common room for a while, because we were chatting with Esther about wonderful travels and well, life. You can grab a coffee and there is a fridge with all kinds of tasty drinks and beers of course. Everything has been thought of! You can even get a marshmallow package from Esther. I find that very thoughtful. We also saw that you can order breakfast from her!

In addition, there is also a very large collection with really the best games. It is nice to have this space at your disposal and it is nice to meet other guests here. Though that won't happen very often. Esther ensures that there are max. 2 groups. The toilet and shower are functional and, according to today's times, may be a bit "outdated". But we secretly fell in love with the pink bathroom and even took a bath.

Esther has a gigantic garden full of flowers, shrubs and plants. This really makes it a beautiful oasis! And in the middle of the oasis is the tipy tent. You have a lot of privacy and a beautiful view over the field. This makes you really feel like you are in the middle of nowhere. The environment is also very beautiful. If you turn left into the street and continue you will come to a large forest where you can walk beautifully. For example on the path with decking. If you turn right you will enter the village. Be sure to ask Esther where it is best to eat or order food. Although she also made a list of all the nice places in the area. We would have loved to have had a coffee at Esther's favorite shop! For the next time!

In addition to the facilities, such as the communal area and the garden, there is even more. There is a beautiful fire place where you can roast those marshmallows and sit in front of a fire until late. You can also find wood and other supplies at Esther. Or take a look at the supermarket across the street. But there is also a swimming pool and a lovely outdoor bed where you can relax.

And then of course the tipy tent! We already said how beautiful you look, but the tent itself is also very beautiful. Esther has decorated it really great. Very atmospheric and romantic. Lights, lights everywhere! We're really crazy about that. But also a nice couch where you can sit and a lot of reading material, such as the Flow and a few funny books. There are towels and washcloths. And there is a clothes rack and closet area. Does it all fit in a tipy? Certainly! And you certainly don't feel like it's full. The many rugs that come with it also make it a lot of fun!

We may not have even mentioned the most important thing: Tito. The dark brown labrador who is quite inclusive. You will be welcomed immediately and who knows, maybe he will show you his favorite hug or ball. How wonderful to play with Tito on the large lawn! We absolutely enjoyed it.

Thank you Esther for the pleasant meeting and the wonderful overnight stay! We would be happy to visit you again.

Our first motorhome experience was an instant hit. Especially because the first place to stay with Esther in her beautiful garden was wonderful.
Not only was the camp site very beautiful, but Esther is also a wonderful hostess. A friendly young lady who does everything to make the stay as pleasant as possible.
Her sweet dog Tito finished it off completely ;-)

Furthermore, it is a great base for making beautiful bike rides and walks.
Highly recommended! We are fans and will definitely go back.
