About this campspace

Hello, Lysdonck is a private park with lots of open land, forest and a lake. Here, we host a tranquil and spacious private campsite in East Flanders, Belgium.

Lysdonck park is known from the year 1243 when it belonged to the abbey of Baudelo. The total surface area of this nature campsite is 50,000 m2 and we offer unique overnight stays in our mobile home, or with our spacious and secluded motorhome pitches and tent pitches.

Our Belgian mini campsite is a refuge for all wildlife. Hares, geese, ducks and other wildlife use Lysdonck as a breeding spot.

Even though I can accommodate 50 people on the estate, there will still be plenty of privacy for all. Some camping guests will choose the woods and others the open fields. For daytime nature activities, there are also a few boats that can be used on the small lake.

Running water, toilets (in the mobile home), a fridge, electricity, showers all are available.
Minimum groups of 8 persons. no visitors for allowed for the campers.

Please have respect for other campers and our neighbours. Keep your noise levels down in general and after 22:00 make sure to keep noise within the allotted camping area.

I would like to welcome people to my campsite that can truly appreciate and respect the beauty of nature as I do. Lysdonck is situated amidst farmland so in the evening one can enjoy the tranquillity of country life without traffic noise.

A limited number of guests may be received at a time, and this must be with the owner's approval. All outgoing guests must leave the premises by 20:00 at the latest. Not allowed to recharge electric vehicles .

Regards, Hendrik

P.S. Waste disposal is your own responsibility. Plastic, metal and drink carton rubbish should be collected in blue plastic bags supplied by the host.

Perfect for...

Nature lovers, couples, solo travellers, families and hikers.

Had a great weekend with our group of adults and children. Lots of space so that the children could play a lot, and we could always sit in the sun, great with the pond and the boats, a nice place to stay in a group. Hendrik insists that everything is tidy (tents and cars), and that everything is neatly cleaned up, and we are happy to take care of that. Campfire allowed, there are even fire bowls available. Worth repeating

Because it was very hot there were a lot of flies around the water, if you can't stand that that is something to keep in mind.

My stay at Hendrik's Campspace was refreshing and unique. On his Campspace there is plenty of options to park your camper or set-up your tent, I decided to stay next to the water in the forest! I enjoyed watching the active wildlife and I also made a fire during the night. Absolutely amazing Campspace and I would highly recommend visiting it if you are in the area!

How was the contact with the host?
Hendrik is a very friendly and attentive. He was always available and open to help when it was needed and he also took his time for some conversation. I learned a lot from him about the area and also about his large "garden".

We had an absolutely great time! Communication, check-in and check-out were super easy, and Hednrik was always there to help. The forest and lake are absolutely magnificent! Most importantly we had a lot of space for our group, and it felt almost like we had a forest for ourselves (nothing like a regular camping where tents are very close to each other!). Facilities were basic, but sufficient for a couple nights stay. Thanks a lot for hosting us Hendrik and see you next time!

If it's not that hot yet and you want some sun, the lawn might be better. Standing between the trees can also be far from the sanitary facilities, not a problem for us, but maybe if you need it often.

The six of us had decided to go out for a weekend and Lysdonck fully met our needs. The pond can be sailed with a boat that is available, petanque or Kubbs can be played on the large lawn and a barbecue is provided at each camping site. Hendrik also provides some wood for making a modest and cozy campfire.

Patrick

Tell us about your experience
We were allowed to have a long-term stay with Hendrik for a relatively short day, and it was a very nice experience. The park itself is very quiet, and nature is maintained in a respectful way. You will find many birds that share the space with you (and because of the location also mosquitoes, so keep that in mind).

All in all, wonderfully relaxed, and exactly what we had hoped for.

How was the contact with the host?
Hendrik is extremely helpful. Regularly checks in with everyone to see if everything is to your liking, and is a very amiable man. Contact had no barrier.

Tips for new guests?
The gate to the park closes late at night, so always contact Hendrik if you unexpectedly arrive later.
BBQ is not checked in the listing, but Hendrik has BBQ's on the property for guests to use.

We spent an afternoon and a night at the edge of the small lake, in our Combi, with my daughter and our little dog.
We are like in a small forest, it is quite humid but in summer when the vegetation grows it must be another experience to do.
The site is not far from the road so a little noise with cars.
(I wanted to put more photos but it does not fit in size sorry)

How was the contact with the host?
Hendrik was very available and welcoming, he provided us with the brazier and enough to light the fire in the evening, the dry logs are ready under a tarpaulin, it's perfect.

Tips for new guests?
We were well equipped but you will find water and electricity toilets, not much to advise if you are a camper;)

Very nice campspace with a lot of space. There are also plenty of facilities such as water, electricity, barbecues, wood for campfire ... We stood on the immense lawn. The pitches in the forest are just a bit too small for a camper.
The neighborhood is also ideal for walks and cycling. If you compare this campspace with comparable campspaces, it is a bit too expensive. But we will definitely come back here.

How was the contact with the host?
Hendrik is a pleasant host who likes to have a chat. He helps where he can and shares enough information about the area. He transfers his campspace well and ensures that everything is and remains in order.

Tips for new guests?
Walking in Boudelo Fondatie or cycling to Molsbroek is a must. We mapped out bicycle routes with the bicycle junction network. Recommended.

Fabulous grounds, with friendly and helpful owner. We swam in the pond, sailed the boats, had a BBQ and most of all camped together nicely and celebrated my birthday (with silent disco, as agreed). Next to us was a huge techno party all night long, hard beats until 5.30h, then the noise decreased, so not everyone slept well, but otherwise everything was fantastic.

How was the contact with the host?
Well, Hendrik is a very friendly owner who likes to have everything in order and likes to have a chat. He patiently answered my numerous questions and helped where possible. I didn't always understand why we were shifted from one spot to another on the property before we came, but in the end everything worked out and we were on a beautiful field.

Tips for new guests?
Check if there are loud parties planned with the owner (not a big issue for us as we were having a party ourselves, but it was intense)

We had a great time in the mobile home on domain Lysdonck. Everything needed to take our 19 month old daughter on a first trip. Thank you for opening up this beautiful domain to adventurers and connoisseurs.

How was the contact with the host?
Thank you for your helpfulness, your accessibility and friendliness. Our daughter was also very happy that she could feed the fish and pet Aiki!

Tips for new guests?
Lysdonck was a wonderful starting point for us for trips with our daughter. It is beautifully situated between Sint-Niklaas (city, parks, playground in De Vidtspark), Lokeren (Forest park with animals and playground) and Wachtebeke (domain Puyenbroeck). A trip to the Dutch town of Hulst (wonderful walking and playing on the ramparts) is also nearby. A little further out we went to Perkpolder, to take the ferry from there to Hansweert. Lovely walks there on the dike and playing on the beach with a view of the large container ships. Of course we also enjoyed a boat trip and playing in Lysdonck itself!

Lovely place assigned by very helpful Hendrik. We were able to enjoy the sun and the lovely swimming pond for a few days in peace. Very nice walking environment.

Enjoyed! Beautiful surroundings. Lovely camping, swimming, lighting a fire, bbqing. Better cycling environment, because you have to walk along the road first. Short walks are possible.

How was the contact with the host?
Very good!

Nature & tranquility go hand in hand here! Ok, 30 euros is a bit pricey but in exchange you don't have to be like pegs in a barrel at a campsite or motorhome. So that space is more than worth it.

How was the contact with the host?
Hendrik is a friendly no nonsense man. You feel very welcome.

Tips for new guests?
To do!

It was a very pleasant stay in this beautiful domain.

How was the contact with the host?
Super. Very amiable man. Helpful, friendly, smiley, responds quickly and calmly to everyone's individual needs.

Tips for new guests?
Don't expect dead silence. There are many animals to hear and see, but also street noise and tools on weekends.
So it's best to bring earplugs.
Go with the flow

Tell us about your experience
The campspace was amazing, we were very happy to be there. The only negative point was that there were around 3 times the amount of people that were indicated as the maximum capacity online. Luckily the space was big enough. Fridge there is small and the electricity was apparently not enough to get our own camping fridge cool.

How was the contact with the host?
Hendrik was super friendly and very accessible. We'll be happy to go again.

Tell us about your experience
Our first experience with Campspace was a great success thanks to the lovely host and his super friendly welcome! On his large, beautiful grounds, there was a lot of choice of where to pitch our tent, both in the woods and on the open plains. Despite the warning for the mosquitoes, we chose a spot on the water. A donkey does not hit the same stone twice, next time you will find us on the open plain. We could enjoy it in peace and quiet. Well worth it!

Camping in this domain is very nice. We got a cool place under the trees by the lake. No neighbors within 50 meters, so very quiet in that regard. We really enjoyed that. The road next to the campsite was regularly busy, especially early in the morning. The shower is in need of updating.

How was the contact with the host?
Very pleasant. Hendrik came a few times to inquire if everything was okay. Furthermore, he lets the guests and respects privacy.

Tips for new guests?
Ghent is a super cool city, definitely visit!

Cool place: somewhat closed off, on the water and in the woods with a campfire spot. We are looking for peace and it was there at times. We enjoyed our weekend.

How was the contact with the host?
Nice and calm man who helps where he can.

Tips for new guests?
Our place was through the thin forest edge, close to the road. We heard the cars speeding past. The peace was sometimes disturbed by music and children screaming on the water.

Friendly host. very nice location, enough space for everyone. It is a pity that a group of partying young people disturbed the night's sleep. I don't think this is the intention of Campspace. Just enjoyed this campsite.

Ingrid

Tell us about your experience
Hendrik was a very friendly host, a nice place in the forest by the lake, was our chosen place for 3 nights.

A toilet and shower was provided in a site shack. You were allowed to gather wood and burn it at your own place.

Shame about the neighbors' dogs that they made so much noise, and the cars were also somewhat present, in the evening and at night it was very quiet.
Hendrik occasionally came to check if everything was okay, and if you are short of something, he will certainly do his best to make sure, nothing is too much for him.

You can certainly make beautiful walks in the area.

Tell us about your experience
The campsite is lonely and quiet, which we found very nice. We had a pitch in the woods overlooking the lake.
However, the sanitary facilities were out of the question. The trailer, which houses a men's room and a women's room with the only shower, stinks, is dirty and makes an overall unhygienic and run-down impression. The hand basins in the toilets are tiny and completely unsuitable for personal hygiene. Only one person can shower at a time. If the ladies' room is occupied, you can't shower. On the other hand, women cannot go to the toilet when the shower is occupied. There is a need for action here. At a price of around 40 euros per night, you can definitely expect more!

How was the contact with the host?
Everything OK.

Tips for new guests?
Better to ask before booking whether something has changed in the sanitary facilities. Otherwise look for another campsite.
