I have arrived at Lode and Wini's Campspace and I was immediately amazed by their beautiful garden and huge space that they were offering! I was able to set up my tent in a secluded area with privacy and park my vehicle in the driveway. Their land offers a great variety of activities as it houses two small lakes, campfire circle, and small fields for lounging and outdoor activates. I personally enjoyed some time on the swing next to the lake while listening to the birds singing. During the night it was peaceful and quiet. I have also made use of the facilities of the Campspace before departing.
How was the contact with the host?
Wini and Lode were always available during my stay and they were very personal and friendly.
Tips for new guests?
Bring a good book with you because this Campspace gives some of the most peaceful time to enjoy a good long read.

For a camper there is little space to stand and that is a pity. The space of the garden is very spacious, nice places to sit down. A fire pit loungers a small lake and the garden is very pretty. Located in the middle of the forest with many opportunities for walking or cycling. Too bad there is no shower and hot water.
How was the contact with the host?
Warmly friendly and very helpful.
Lode likes to talk about nature.
Tips for new guests?
Highly recommended if you like basic.

Yes, we don't do it immediately to keep a campsite open, but we open another garden for people who want something different. In 2020 it was mainly tents, but there are more and more campers and sometimes they are so large that it is difficult to enter the parking lot. Small is beautifull. Regards, Lode

Beautiful, natural place! Unfortunately, I couldn't say goodbye in the morning. Had to leave quickly because the youngest member suffered from false croup.

it was really amazing, the parc with the lakes and so many super cosy places to rest and enjoy the nature. If you are lucky and there is a fire on it become something exceptional. Beautiful plants, flowers in soo many variations. Also the area around is perfect for walk in the forest. a castle with really nice restaurant in max 1 h walk.
How was the contact with the host?
Lode and Wini offer a very warm welcome, taking the time to show you around. Extremely helpful if you have any little trouble. Really give envy to come back.
Tips for new guests?
Bring time, it's worth of it to enjoy it. Paradise for children and a real chance for parents for a rest.

Since last year, American duckweed has suddenly started growing on the pond and that will also disappear by itself, but sometimes it takes a few years, but apparently that can't spoil the fun.

Absolutely wonderful. Beautiful space - looked like something out of a Beatrix Potter book. Lode’s work exemplifies how we should live: Using the best of our knowledge and technological understanding to live in balance with nature.
How was the contact with the host?
Fabulous. He got back to us promptly, and while we were there he gave us space where we wanted it, but also took the time to talk and made us feel perfectly at home. He was so kind to the children and brought us fresh eggs in the morning.
Tips for new guests?
My Young teenagers were somewhat bemused by the fact that there is no hot water or shower. We managed fine with a bucket and water heated on the stove. Not a problem, but we should have checked the info before we got there!

Host Lode en Wini has responded
Hi, with the explosive growth of the American duckweed on the pond there is now a garden hose with spray nozzle for rinsing the small green leaves. Not with hot water because that would require a complete installation and we prefer to keep it a bit basic.
As an old BJN we didn't have a shower at camp and we usually slept in a shed, but we cried ourselves cruelly. We actually already have an abundance of luxury in the west compared to what is available in Africa and a large part of Asia. Regards, Lode

Our stay was lovely. The garden is like a paradise. A vegetable garden, narrow paths that lead to a pond. We were completely free on the water. This is the ultimate camping. We stayed for dinner and it was a very welcoming couple. The house is full of character and so tastefully decorated. Definitely recommended to visit again. Thank you for your stay!

What a little paradise! Surrounded by greenery and close to Bruges. A beautiful spot and great first experience with campspace.

Super lode did a tour with us through his beautiful garden, set up a campfire for us and were super friendly.
Tips for new guests?
There is a separate toilet. However, no shower so that goes in a real outdoor way with a pan of hot water and a bucket.

2nd time staying here. This time with a group of friends and it was beautiful again! Winnie and Lode really are the perfect hostess and gentleman. The water of the pond is also a lot higher, and the garden is even wilder than last year because of the rainfall! Definitely recommended.
