10 small sustainable campings in heritage or nature, Flanders-Belgium and the Netherlands

There is need for open space in the densely populated areas of Flanders – Belgium and the Netherlands. The 10 camping sites are all on a small scale and serve multiple purposes: (1) meaningful re-use and preservation of heritage and natural sites, (2) sustainable and affordable lodging, (3) special experience and use of open space, (4) added economic and touristic value on local and regional scale
The context of the ten examples are all different, from an urban context or city edge towards more natural sites or even inside a private museum(park)
The added value and first goal is preservation and re-use of protected heritage and nature on a sustainable way, the second goal is the support for local tourism and promotion of the city, region or country - the way of implementation is mostly temporary (seasonal), some are permanent. All examples of the small campings have been developed nearby or even inside heritage or natural sites and responds to it, by giving the place an added value and meaningful economic and touristic re-use that starts by lodging but also expandable to food and drinks (summer bar), events (guided tours, workshops ...), connection with walking and cycling networks …
The stakeholders of the ten examples are on all scales / levels: government (regional, city or municipality), regional associations, local organizations, entrepreneurs and citizens or volunteers. The common goal is promoting nature and heritage for tourism and cultural or regional products.
