Romantic holiday homes in the Campine
The Campine is a surprisingly romantic destination. Anyone thinking of a weekend for two usually thinks of the Ardennes. But the Campine has a charm of its own: vast heathland that turns purple in August, silent pine forests, peaceful canals and small villages where time seems to have stood still.

A romantic holiday home in the Campine is a place for two, with a warm atmosphere, an open fire or wood stove and a quiet setting. You will find everything for an undisturbed weekend: a well-equipped kitchen for dinner at home, a terrace for the evening sun and a bedroom without an alarm clock.
The Campine is also easy to reach. From Antwerp you can be on the heath near Beerse or Mol in under an hour. A spontaneous romantic weekend in the Campine is easier to plan than a long drive to the Ardennes. Perfect for couples who want to get away without swallowing too many kilometres.
Why the Campine for a romantic stay?
The Campine has a character other regions lack. It is not a tourist destination but a place where people live, and you feel that in the calm and the authenticity. No souvenir shops, no crowded terraces: just peaceful surroundings for walking, cycling and enjoying the small things together. The heath in August is one of Belgium's finest natural spectacles, and practically unknown abroad. That makes a romantic stay in the Campine all the more exclusive.
What does a romantic Campine home offer?
Romantic holiday homes in the Campine are usually small: made for two, with the bedroom upstairs and a warm living room below. You will find an open fire or wood stove, a garden or terrace and a well-equipped kitchen for dinner for two. Some homes also offer a hot tub or jacuzzi in the garden. The surroundings are always quiet and green.
Tips for a romantic weekend in the Campine
- Plan a cycle route across the heath as the day's activity. Ask the owner about the finest heather paths in the area.
- Bring a good bottle of wine and a dinner recipe. Eating out is possible in the Campine, but the local restaurants are not always open on weekdays.
- Book in time for the heather bloom in mid-August. That week is in high demand.
- Check that the home has an open fire for the autumn and winter months. A romantic weekend by the fire is the best thing the Campine has to offer.
