Minicamping Behind us

Minicamping Bij ons achter, located on Meerstraat in Heeswijk-Dinther, is a distinctly different accommodation option in Brabant. Since its takeover in 2024 by the new owners, Paul and Yvette, this campsite has built a reputation for personal attention, exceptional cleanliness, and a serene atmosphere. It's not a large-scale resort , but an intimate location with 23 very spacious comfort pitches of at least 120 m², spread across three small fields. This layout guarantees peace and privacy, a luxury often lacking in many larger hotels or holiday parks.

Guests consistently describe the owners' welcome as warm and personal. Paul and Yvette live next door and are passionate about the outdoors and hospitality. Visitors appreciate the personal greeting and the friendly, helpful atmosphere. This personal touch creates a sense of home, something an anonymous room in a large complex rarely offers.

The Plus Points of 'Back Home'

One of the most striking and praised features of this mini-campsite is the pitches themselves. Each pitch is not only spacious but also thoughtfully designed. A four-meter-wide strip of artificial grass for the caravan or awning ensures a always clean and comfortable "front garden." This, combined with a paved area, demonstrates attention to detail and comfort. Each pitch also has its own water tap, electricity hookup (10 amps), and drainage, significantly enhancing the convenience of camping.

Hotel-quality sanitary facilities

While many campers are sometimes wary of shared washrooms, the sanitary facilities at "Bij ons achter" are an absolute asset. Reviews unanimously praise the spotless, modern, and impeccably maintained facilities that rival the quality of a luxury hotel . The presence of a heated sanitary building with spacious (coin-free) showers, toilets, and a covered dishwashing area with hot water, a library, washing machine, and dryer, underscores the high level of service. This focus on hygiene and comfort is a decisive factor for many returning guests.

Facilities and Amenities

The campsite is fully geared towards the modern camper. For example, a stable fiber-optic Wi-Fi connection is available throughout the site and is included in the price. The rates are transparent and all-inclusive, meaning guests won't encounter any surprises regarding shower or Wi-Fi use. It's good to know that there's a fair-use policy for electricity; 5 kWh per night is included, with an additional charge for any excess usage. This is a fair system that encourages responsible energy consumption.

For those who don't have their own camping gear, the campsite offers an alternative in the form of a charming wooden mobile home for two people, complete with a deck. This offers a comfortable stay for those who want to experience the campsite atmosphere without owning a caravan or tent, a kind of private chalet surrounded by greenery.

Points of Attention and Considerations

While the feedback is overwhelmingly positive, it's important for potential guests to understand what Minicamping Bij ons achter is and isn't. It's an oasis of tranquility, geared towards adults and those seeking peace and quiet. The Zoover child-friendliness score is low, indicating the lack of specific amenities such as playgrounds or entertainment teams. Families looking for a lively holiday park with entertainment for children won't find what they're looking for here. However, this is precisely the campsite's strength for the target audience who come for the peace and quiet and nature.

The location, just outside the built-up area of Heeswijk-Dinther, contributes to the peaceful atmosphere. However, this does mean that grocery shopping or dining out requires a short trip. The town center, with supermarkets, a bakery, and a butcher, is approximately 2 kilometers away, easily covered by bike. This is a point to consider for those who rely on walking distance to all amenities.

Perfect for the active peace seeker

The area surrounding the campsite is ideal for cyclists and hikers. Directly from the campsite, there are hiking trails that lead into the forest and along the Leijgraaf River. The region is known for its extensive cycling network with junctions that take you past castles, abbeys, and through beautiful nature reserves. Sights such as Heeswijk Castle and Berne Abbey are popular cycling destinations. This makes the campsite an excellent base for an active holiday, an alternative to a standard guesthouse or inn .

Minicamping Bij ons achter is an excellent choice for campers who value peace, space, cleanliness, and a personal approach. It's not a traditional lodging , but a carefully managed outdoor facility where comfort is paramount. The combination of spacious, well-equipped pitches, superior sanitary facilities, and the hospitality of the owners makes it a top destination in its niche. Potential visitors should be aware of the focus on tranquility and the absence of children's entertainment. For those seeking a serene retreat to escape the hustle and bustle and enjoy the Brabant landscape, "Bij ons achter" is highly recommended and will far exceed expectations.
