It may be small, but Belgium punches well above its weight when it comes to culture and history. Not to mention the food.
Hop across on the ferry in your motorhome or caravan and follow the crowd south to Bruges for grand Flemish buildings and picturesque canals. Take one of the many canal tours on offer for a fascinating way to see the city.
Brussels’ Grand Place is possibly Europe’s most ornate square – visit after sundown for a spectacular light and music show. Everyone’s favourite comic book hero, Tintin hails from Brussels, so be sure to check out the Comic Book Museum when you’re there.
The views and sights afforded by Ghent’s cobblestone streets are well worth the tricky terrain. Don’t leave without visiting Gravensteen Castle – one of only a few castles left standing from the 12th century.

Know before you go
Overseas campsite bookings can easily be made on the Club website and "combined deals" are common when you book a campsite at the same time as your ferry crossing. Booking online means you save the £15 Contact Centre booking fee.
Yes, deposits for overseas bookings are calculated at 20% for a site and 25% for a ferry (unless it is a non-refundable ferry/Eurotunnel in which case full payment is due at time of booking). The final balance is due 10 weeks prior to travel.
European campsites are star-rated by their own local authorities and can have different standards and regulations to the UK. However, the Club's travel team handpick and inspect our campsites so that members can be sure of a high standard.
The Club's first time abroad section explains everything you need to know about going on your first overseas touring holiday.
