The most useful site is this one, covering the French-speaking parts. The Ardennes are in Mamur province, I think:

For rural gites in the Flemish-speaking zones (Northern Belgium), try this site (goes as far west as Limburg):

Underrated place, Belgium.

We've just come back from a trip to France, Belgium and Amsterdam. Belgium was my favourite by far and I can't wait to go back. I'm amazed at how relatively quiet people keep about it.

thanks, some very useful links there, the sunparks are very cheap! Been to bruges, ostend and Ieper before but fancy getting into the ardennes to have an explore and see more of the country, Belgium is one of my favourite countries to visit

A few years ago we had a two weeks holiday in La Roche, deep in the heart of the The Ardennes. It's in a beautiful location and also handy if you want to visit Luxembourg , Germany or France. I have found some self catering cottages here :-

Don't be confused by the term "Luxembourg", this part of Belgium goes by that name and has nothing to do with the country a few miles away. Here is some tourist information about the area :-

I managed to piece this together so I thought it might be useful to some to detail how I did my money saving holiday.

2 return coach liverpool to brussels, normally £100.60, used code CSSCTEN (found on this site, thx to poster) for national express gives 10% off, plus 30p quidco cashback, cost £90.24

1 night B&B in Brussels through HotelClub through quidco, £46 for 2 but £15 quidco back (already tracked) - Total cost £31 plus £2 discount on next booking.


4 nights in Vielsalm Sunpark, normal price £134, latebooking £86 (thanks to munstergirl for link).

total holiday price for 2 people £207.

A highly immoral person might then bring back 6kg of tobacco and flog it, thus making a small profit on the holiday but I would never encourage that as its illegal.

Thanks to all who posted links up!
