Summary created out of 123 reviews
Urban Gardens Ieper offers an excellent location just 10-15 minutes' walk from the city centre and Menin Gate. Guests appreciate the friendly staff, clean sanitary facilities and spacious campervan pitches with electricity and water. The campsite is ideal as a base for exploring Ypres and the WWI sites in the surrounding area. However, disturbance is regularly reported from nearby factories operating 24/7, and occasionally from music events. Sanitary capacity was temporarily limited during renovation works.

A neat RV park with cabins, safari tents, and a tent field!
We were warmly welcomed in a new reception building. The restrooms are also new; a few minor touches still need to be added, but they’re very luxurious.
The spaces for motorhomes parked in a three-wide configuration are a bit tight, but there are more spacious spots further down. The location relative to the center of Ypres is perfect, a 10-minute walk to the Menin Gate, where a memorial ceremony for the war victims of 1914–1918 takes place every evening at 8:00 p.m. Also highly recommended are the Flanders Fields Museum in the Cloth Hall and the climb up the tower.this is a translation, click here for the original
Nette camperplaats met huisjes, safaritenten en een tentenveld!
Keurig ontvangen in een nieuw receptiegebouw. De sanitaire ruimtes zijn ook nieuw, er moeten wat kleinigheidjes nog gedaan worden maar is erg luxe.
De ruimtes voor de camper die met drie opgesteld worden zijn krap, maar verderop zijn ruimere plaatsen. De ligging ten opzichte het centrum van Ieper is perfect, 10 minuten lopen naar de Menenpoort waar iedere avond om 20:00 uur een herdenking voor de oorlogsslachtoffers van 1914-1918 plaats vindt, verder is het museum (Flandres Fields) in de lakenhal en de beklimming van de toren een aanrader -

A brilliant city centre campsite with immaculate facilities. It's a 10 minute wal through the woods and along the moat to Menin Gate, the location couldn't be better!

A campground a 10-minute walk from Ypres. A great starting point for hiking and biking, and for visiting Ypres with its impressive Flanders Museum in the majestic Cloth Hall. And, of course, The Last Post. We stayed here for 5 days.
There’s a new restroom facility that isn’t quite finished yet but is already usable. There’s also an older, smaller restroom facility that’s kept very clean. It’s checked several times a day.this is a translation, click here for the original
Camping op 10 minuten lopen van Ieper. Een mooi uitvalspunt om te wandelen en fietsen en Ieper met zijn indrukwekkende Flandres museum in de imposante Lakenhal te bezoeken. En natuurlijk the Last Post. Wij hebben hier 5 dagen gestaan.
Er is een nieuw sanitair blok dat nog niet helemaal klaar is maar al wel gebruikt kan worden. Dan is er een ouder kleiner sanitair blok dat goed schoon gehouden wordt. Het wordt meerdere keren per dag gecontroleerd. -

Great location but if you are a cyclist please note the pitches are next to public pathway, there is no security, the ground is uneven and lumpy, the electricity points take a caravan plug so we had to borrow an adapter plug from reception, there is no shade from the sun and as far as I could see no washing up facilities. The water is drinkable but the access is over by the rubbish. Up to you but I would book here again which is a shame as they have new ablutions which are lovely. I feel as a cyclist any piece of grass is passed of as a tent pitch - would the owners actually camp here themselves?
