La Cabane des Avelines is a charming place located in Sart-Dames-Avelines, between Charleroi and Brussels, Belgium. It's an authentic, farm-style cabin. You're in the middle of meadows, on the banks of a river, with nothing to look at. A true country retreat.

Mention Let's Go My Love when booking on our partner's official website and receive a free farmhouse breakfast for 2. Value: €30. On the menu: fresh eggs, smoked bacon, bread, butter, jam, honey, milk and apple juice from the orchard. Tea, coffee and herbal tea are available in the hut. Look at this picture to see where to mention us.

We had the opportunity to visit the cabin and meet Julie, the owner. She's very friendly and has an innate talent for interior design. Rarely have we seen such attention to detail and such passion. Take, for example, the disco ball on the bed, which diffuses light in a kaleidoscope pattern throughout the cabin when the sun is shining. The kind of detail we love.

Prices start at €179 per night for 2 people. If you stay 2 nights or more, you'll benefit from a total reduction of up to -35% on the cost of your stay. That's rare enough to be worth mentioning, and really interesting if you want to make the most of your stay and even work remotely on site.

Julie likes to greet customers face-to-face, but you can also ask for a self-guided arrival, without running into anyone, at a time of your choosing. The choice is yours. Don't forget to specify this when booking. In any case, there's a mini-guide inside the cabin where everything is clearly explained.

The location is extremely peaceful, on the banks of a river, not far from superb ponds at sunset, in a green setting. Everything is superbly equipped, arranged and decorated with care, taste and refinement. There's a gentle fragrance in the cabin that varies with the season.

There are no neighbors around you, and no disruptive elements. Your only companions are squirrels, birds, frogs, sheep and even deer! Keep your eyes peeled on your walks.

The cabin is powered by solar energy and heated by a pellet stove. It offers all the comforts of home, including a fully-equipped kitchen, a bathroom with welcome products from Dermasens, a dry toilet, a bedroom and a king-size bed with sheets from the eco-responsible Belgian brand Kalani-Home. Crockery and kitchen accessories come from Dille et Kamille.

We love the vintage illustrations in the cabin (these are portraits of the family's grandparents!), created by Noémie from Red.Orb.Creation, which add even more style to the interior decor.

For your meals, delicious local meal baskets from Nomad Food by Gwendolina can be discreetly deposited thanks to the pass-through. Everything is possible. Don't forget to specify your wishes when booking.

If you want to surprise your partner, Julie is your partner in crime. She can, for example, give you the keys earlier in the day and already receive the luggage you've discreetly packed. Then suggest that your partner take a simple stroll. You can then "discover" the cabin together in the late afternoon and spend the night.

The hut is located in Sart-Dames-Avelines, a village in Walloon Brabant between Brussels and Charleroi. If you come by train, you can stop at Villers-la-Ville station and walk for about 1 hour. There's a nice route through the forest: you can ask for it when you book.

There are plenty of walks to be had in the surrounding area, particularly in Villers-la-Ville and Genappe. Take a trip to the magnificent Abbaye de Villers-la-Ville, less than an hour's walk away! We also recommend a visit to Les Coteaux des Avelines, a magnificent winegrowing estate right next door, offering tours and tastings.
