We spent Wednesday evening ( 2nd Sept ) along with two other English and one Dutch motorhome at the Aire on Lindendreef, Veurne.
A local Belgian chap was telling one of the other couples who had arrived earlier than us, that the Police have recently started to prosecuting every motorhome using the parking bays at the marina around the corner in Kaaiplaats, which is not designated for motorhome parking.
I was there a couple of weeks ago for two nights, what a delightful town.
We parked in the clearly designated motorhome parking bays which were long enough to take our 7.2 metres + bikes on the back.
The marina had more motorhomes in than the official camper parking, the bays are too small to take anything longer than a van - we noticed one Adria Coral overhanging the footpath obstructing pedestrian access and damaging the planting. Another MH was parked on the forecourt of adjacent offices virtually in front of the reception doors! Totally inconsiderate and the sort of behaviour that leads to us losing official parking.
It would help to clarify the situation though if the local authority put a "No Campervans allowed" sign in the marina parking area.
It would be a shame to lose it as Belgium is not awash with that sort of facility.
I agree Veurne is a very nice town, there is a very good Chinese restaurant in , and if you are fortunate to be there when the bells are doing their carillon you are indeed blessed.

Sadly last Wednesday, just as snuggled up under the duvae we were blessed with high winds, torrential rain and acompanied by conkers from the over hanging trees bouncing off the roof. But we still love the place.
