  • Laidback Spanish-influenced Flanders campsite among pine forests
  • Half an hour's drive to Antwerp; 20 minutes to Bobbejaanland
  • Bar, tapas restaurant, playground and kids' activities on site
The name is Spanish, but the setting is Flemish… and the two come together to create a most delightful place to stay at Camping Siesta, surrounded by the pine forests of the Antwerp Kempen five minutes from Lille (the Belgian Lille, not the French one). The Spanish influence is perhaps most noticeable in the restaurant La Cantina, which opens on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays for a menu of tapas (with the costillas – ribs – a particular highlight) washed down with jugs of sangria and set to the soundtrack of a live flamenco guitarist. The laidback atmosphere gives a nod to the southern lifestyle too, and there are plenty of lovely spots where you can have a well-earned siesta while breathing in the scents of the pine trees. Much of the rest of the place is the full Flanders experience – from games of pétanque with your new neighbours to taking a walk on the trails that wind themselves through the forest next door, and of course finishing the day with a local golden beer. Kids are very welcome here, and can busy themselves clambering on the climbing frames at the playground or joining a forest safari with the site’s own woodland ranger (warning: they tend to get happily mucky on these activities, so send them off in an outfit you don’t mind getting dirty…) In between your forest forays, there are plenty of places nearby for days out – a trip to Antwerp (half an hour’s drive) is a must for many guests, and families often have a fabulous time at Bobbejaanland, 20 minutes away.

Disliked Het toiletgebouw dat rond 8.30 (spitsuur) schoongemaakt werd, het tapascafé dat niets Spaans had en erg duur was voor de pre-fab die ze verkochten en de troosteloze sfeer.

Electric grass and sand touring caravan, tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked The site is in two parts, a much larger static only site and the camping site. Reception is on the static site which is awkward as the adjacent car park can be rammed and once in there is no chance of getting through if you are towing.

Having checked in at reception and and reversed out of the car park (motor mover handy) the camping site is down the lane marked 'La Cantina' which you will have passed on the R .

Pitches are sandy, flat, irregularly shaped and sized but reasonably well defined attracting a mix of motorhomes, caravans and cycle campers. The unisex wash block is adjacent to the bar (La Cantina - limited opening) and is both modern and well maintained.

There is a motorhome service point at the entrance with water and chemical disposal and well hidden, a water tap at the far end of site (look for the lamppost!).

We found the site quiet and restful, surrounding are miles of forest paths for walkers and cyclists. And for dog owners a wonderful beach and off lead area about 3km away (ask at Reception).

Disliked Awkward arrival and having to reverse with a van.

Liked - Lot of greenery all around
- A very quiet camp site
- Size of the campgrounds
- Option of a private toilet/shower
- Great wifi
- Very responsive staff / great support via the app

Disliked - Some of the pitches don't have much grass on them, resulting in a bit of a "dusty" experience
- State of the shared sanitary facilities is actually better than the private ones

Electric grass and sand touring caravan, tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Size of the pitches gave plenty of room

Disliked Unmade road approach with many bad patches
Being in the middle of the forest felt like you had been abandoned there
Horrendous thunder storm and lightning, quite scary at times. Not their fault.
Restaurant was closed the night I was there
Caravan after one night was filthy from the paths and overhanging trees. Not a good bad weather site

From the manager: Soms krijg je feedback waar je even over nadenkt… 🌿

“Daar ga je met je rustige camping…”

En eerlijk? Op een camping midden in het leven horen soms ook spontane momenten bij. Een goed gesprek op het terras, een groepje locals dat geniet van een drankje, gelach op de achtergrond… 🍷☀️

Wij blijven elke dag zoeken naar de juiste balans tussen gezelligheid én rust. Want uiteindelijk willen we vooral een plek zijn waar mensen zich welkom voelen — gasten, buren én voorbijgangers.

En geloof ons: zodra de zon ondergaat, hoor je hier meestal weer gewoon de vogels. 🐦💚

Local attractions

Even if it’s the forest frolics that are the main focus of your holiday, you should take some time away for a trip to Antwerp (half an hour’s drive). It’s really a fabulous city, with attractions including a chocolate museum, a brewery and lots of museums, including the excellent Rubens House. Antwerp is also home to one of the oldest zoos in Europe, and a whole district of glittering diamond shops. For those of you with kids, Bobbejaanland (20 minutes) is a top day out, with lots of rides, shows and themed areas to explore. There are also lots of fun things for kids to do at De Lilse Bergen amusement park (10 minutes), or they can spend hours splashing about in the outdoor and subtropical pools at Netepark (15 minutes). If you’d rather stick to lots of outdoor time, plan things like walks in the Landschap Liereman (25 minutes) or go paddleboarding from Herentals (20 minutes).
