Belgium, the founding member of the European Union is an ideal holiday destination for a short get away staying in a city apartment, or a nice long week relaxing looking at the sloping hills from a luxury holiday cottage.

 

Belgium as a holiday destination has mild winters and cool summers, with flat coastal plains in the northwest of the country, rolling hills centrally and in the southwest the wooded hills and valleys of the Ardennes Forest.

 

Belgium has a great infrastructure for cycling, making it an ideal holiday destination for keen cyclists everywhere, and if you fancy taking a ride from your holiday home then bikes are available to hire almost everywhere in Belgium, and thanks to the size of the country you can get almost anywhere within just a couple of hours.

 

Belgium has some very fine cities to visit, should you choose your vacation rental here, stroll along the streets of Antwerp and shop for some designer fashion or perhaps some wonderful jewellery in the number of jewellery shops, and should shopping take you fancy you can buy some amazing textiles in Bruges, and don’t forget what Belgium is most famous for, aside from its beer, Belgium chocolates!

 

Why not coincide your holiday to Belgium with one of the countries top attractions such as the yearly Heavy Metal Festival in the town of Dessal, the Carnival de Binche in the city of Bince or spoil yourself and your friends on one of the many Belgium Beer tours that are available.
