What sets a comparison site apart from a blog
How fresh the data is
Every family of data shown on this page, with its source and the date it was recorded when we have one. When we do not, we say so.
- Displayed pricehoprat estimate
hoprat estimate for 3 nights and 4 people, calculated from our own data. It is not an operator rate, it does not depend on your dates, and nothing can be booked at that amount.
hoprat estimate - Public ratingNot verified
No public rating for this park can be attributed to a platform and a recording date, so this page shows none, and the hoprat score is calculated without the “reviews” dimension.
Not verified - Park addressNot verified
Entered by hand from the operator's official website, because OpenStreetMap placed several parks in the wrong municipality. No verification date was recorded for this entry.
Not verified - Coordinates and driving timesRecorded and dated
Coordinates taken from OpenStreetMap (Nominatim) and real routes calculated by OSRM on 22 September 2026. The “Friday evening” column is not a measurement: it is the normal time multiplied by 1.3.
Recorded and dated - Activities and restaurants nearbyRecorded and dated
6 activities and 2 restaurants: addresses and coordinates taken from OpenStreetMap (Nominatim), distances calculated by OSRM, on 22 September 2026. No restaurant rating is shown: we have none whose platform is known. The descriptions, the audiences and the seasons are written by us, with no recording date.
Recorded and dated - Park facilitiesNot verified
2 criteria recorded from the operator's pages, 10 unverified — an unverified criterion is never counted as absent. No verification date was recorded for these readings: they may have aged without our being able to say so. The number of units is not confirmed by a citable public source, so it is not shown.
Not verified - Online bookingNot verified
Availability not checked: we make no claim to know whether any units are still free.
Not verified
No date in this table is inferred: when a check has not been recorded, the row says “not verified” rather than showing today's date or the date the site went live.
Put it up against another
The parks the same trip could put up against it: similar driving time and estimated budget, so a real choice to make.
Frequently asked questions
The answers are worked out from the data on this page. A question does not appear while the data that would answer it is missing: here, “we don't know” is never said as “no”.
How long is the drive from Brussels?
3h 25m by road from Brussels, and an estimated 4h 27m on a Friday evening (normal time ×1.3). Real route calculated with OSRM on OpenStreetMap road data.
