Belgium vacation rentals are cozy oases for you to rest in after sunny days spent at the beach or on wine tours, indulging in mouthwatering food, or simply sitting in a cafe with mussels and fries, watching the fascinating world go by.
Waffles and beer in Belgium
History buffs will find much to entrance them in Belgium, from the battle site of Flanders Field to the World War II battlefields in the Forest of Ardennes. Belgium is full of interesting museums, featuring stories and images covering everything from trains and artists to aristocrats and poets. In between touring cathedrals and historic sites, there are Trappist beers for you to sample, sugar-crusted waffles to nibble and the freshest seafood to indulge in. Belgium vacation rentals are homey places that welcome you back after days spent exploring old mines, taking horse-drawn carriage rides through old city centers and relaxing on boat rides along meandering canals.
Paintings and coal mining in Belgium
Belgium has a wealth of fascinating heritage sites to explore, including the Flemish Beguinages, an enclosed medieval community of women; the art nouveau Stoclet House, in Brussels and the Major Mining Sites of Wallonia, which share the history of coal mining in Belgium. Belgium vacation rentals are in every major city, allowing you a peaceful retreat after canal tours in Bruges, or a horse-drawn carriage ride through the old city in Antwerp, after lingering over paintings in the Rubens House Museum. Be sure to save time for leisurely strolls through gorgeous cities, like Ghent, and stopping to sip a frothy beer in a cafe.
Cool summers and cold winters in Belgium
Belgium is tucked nicely between France and the Netherlands, and faces the North Sea. It has a temperate maritime climate, with moderate winters and cool summers. Along the coast, temperatures are cooler during summer – between 68 and 72 – while inland it's slightly warmer – about 73. Rains aren't heavy, but are steady throughout the year, so be sure to bring rain gear and warm layers when you visit. Winter in Belgium can have freezing temperatures, but they usually range between the high 20s and high 30s. Warm clothing is essential in winter, and extra layers are sensible in case of sudden weather changes.
Wild boar and sand dunes in Belgium
The North Sea provides the western border for Belgium, with Germany and Luxembourg to the east. The Netherlands sits to the north and France to the south. Britain is a few miles to the west, across the English Channel. Belgium is a flat country, with sand dunes and reclaimed land near the coast, fertile valleys further inland, and the Ardennes, a densely forested plateau. Belgium may seem heavily populated, but it has ample green space where wildlife thrives. Savvy observers may spot wild boar, gray wolves, lynxes and wild cats. Just be careful of Belgium's one poisonous snake, the common adder.
