The campsite will be closed from 1 October 2009 to 30 June 2010. During this period, the site will be redesigned. The playground gets a new facelift. More info later.
From 01 October 2009 up to 30 June 2010. It is temporarily allowed to park along the public roads, this for maximum 24 hours. We suggest to park along the ‘Leopold III laan’.
We were there in February and parked at the side of the canal as others have suggested. We were told at the information office located in the Cloth Hall, to do this and be there early as it is always busy, at the gate I mean. We were lucky enough to be there on the night an Australian who had been awarded the Victoria Cross was laying a wreath and all the dignitaries were there, it was awesome and memorable. Unfortunately only had my mobile camera with me so pics not very clear,but we were able to speak to his wife and sargeant and get the story. He had saved quite a few comrades in Afghan in 2008. He had also been at the palace the week before and met the queen. The service at the gate is always very touching.

If your heading into the city towards the gate the road is the last on your left before you get to the gate. If your coming from the main square (city centre) out through the gate its first on your right. About 200-300 yards or so on down this road are the large parking bays. Stayed there last August, very quiet and safe. The city is lovely. We did the Last post ceremony, Tyne Cot Cemetery and the Yorkshire Trench. All free. (cheapskates or what)
There is a road beside the canal immediately before the Menin Gate as you come into the City. Turn right immediately before the Menin Gate. We spent a very peaceful night there last October. There are other motorhomes sometimes. If you drive as far as possible there are posts across the road, park here and you are not in front of the houses.

And on the other side of these wooden posts too is not a problem. It is also very quiet and peaceful up that end after tea time.
See my previously (typed) post above.

Jock.

As with many others here, we have used the campsites for both.
I think Memling is great and is a € or 2 more than the Aire which I have heard many bad stories about. Memling allows easy access to Brugge by foot, car, taxi, motorhome, cycle or bus. I prefer to cycle or get the No.11 bus from around the corner (€1.50). If you like, you can drive to the ring road and park there, free, walk into town.
Again, the municipal at Ypres is a pleasant short walk from the town (Bit tricky to find I must say).
Stayed at both Brugges and Ypres in December - no problem getting a space in either. We parked in the road in Ypres as suggested by others ,by the side of the canal and had a lovely two nights there without any disturbance. A really nice cake and bread shop in Ypres just to the right of the Gate going out of town. As advised the town square is a little small for big vehicles - but there is no porblem parking just out of the town centre - lovely ceremony in the evening - and spent the rest of the night with the buglers in the corner bar. Will visit again soon - great experience
