We were lucky enough to spend 2 nights there in May 2023, and our stay was a real change of scenery! We were able to walk in the woods, build a fire, prepare a nice barbecue in the evening and even take a bath at the top of our cabin with a panoramic view of the whole forest!

When you arrive on the estate, you cross a bridge and can leave your car in the private parking lot. You're always warmly welcomed by a member of the team in the estate's main hut. Communication is possible in French, Dutch, German or English. We'll explain everything you need to know about your stay.

In the main hut, there's also a small grocery store to stock up on supplies, a fire pit and a lovely terrace for a drink. If you've ordered breakfast or a barbecue basket, this is the place to pick it up. Now head for your cabin in the forest estate. Take a look at this map of the estate to find your way.

Depending on the cabin you choose, you'll enjoy the following amenities: interior design by Dille & Kamille, kitchenette with gas stove, wooden cooler as mini-fridge, coffee machine, bathroom with toilet and shower, comfortable king or queen size bed depending on the cabin, wood-burning stove, Nordic bath, outdoor terrace, barbecue and chairs by Lafuma.

It is a true hygge experience that awaits you during your stay: atmosphere with oil lamp or candles, reading a good book, cup of tea and large bay window to admire the surrounding forest. Hygge is a word of Danish origin referring to a feeling of well-being and a warm and intimate atmosphere.

Dogs are welcome on the estate. But there are 2 conditions: you must book a Classic cabin, and you must purchase a €30 package per dog for the duration of your stay. This package includes a basket, a bowl, a small welcome snack and a few recommendations for dog-friendly walks. They'll be super happy here.

In the evening or when it's cold, you can build a fire in the wood-burning stove in your cabin. There's a supply of wood ready when you arrive, and you can also collect logs from several wood-burning areas around the estate.
