Our favorite romantic stays and hidden gems
Les Repères de Basseilles are 2 spheres with panoramic views located in the heart of the countryside in Mozet, a 20-minute drive from Namur, Belgium. The setting is breathtaking: on the edge of a wood, with no nearby neighbors. You're on the grounds of the romantic Ferme de Basseilles. It's a bit like being in Tuscany. Get ready for a magical experience!

Our experience
We had the chance to visit the 2 landmarks during the day, while chatting with the owners and walking around the estate. The place is authentic and just super pleasant.
On the morning of your arrival day, you'll receive all your booking details by SMS. Arrival is completely autonomous. You can arrive as early as 5pm. If you have any concerns, the team is practically always on hand at the farm, and Léa can always be reached.
Here are the two accommodations:
1 • Le Dôme des Libellules Photo
2 • The Stream Bubble • Photo
Important: the dome remains open all year round, while the bubble closes every year from November 1 to March 31.
Le Dôme des Libellules, perched on the edge of a wood, offers a truly romantic retreat with a heated king-size bed, private terrace, sitting area and brazier perfect for roasting a few marshmallows.
La Bulle du Ruisseau, nestled on the water's edge in a natural setting, also features a king-size bed with heated mattress, a lounge area with a "Crusoe" armchair like an outdoor canopy bed, an intimate terrace and a brazier.
If you like a hot shower in the morning, you can use the one in the private wellness area. Don't forget to ask when you book. There's no extra charge. A private cabin with toilet and refreshment facilities is available near each of the spheres.
The private wellness area, located about 200 meters from the spheres, is available as an optional extra.

Location
Les Repères de Basseilles are ideally located near Gesves, about 20 minutes from Namur in Wallonia. If you'd like to explore the surrounding area, we suggest a visit to the Grottes de Goyet, a rare and protected underground heritage site housing one of Europe's most prestigious prehistoric sites.
To eat nearby, we liked Restaurant Nous, just a few minutes' drive away: very tasty dishes and a top-notch team. The second night, we opted for a Netflix evening and tried Le Couscoussier via Uber Eats: very, very good!
