Nature and surroundings
Between City and Silence: Houtave is hidden in the soft vastness of the Flemish polders, where the horizon breathes and the landscape invites tranquility. Yet here you are never far from liveliness: the historic splendor of Bruges, the "Venice of the North," is only 10 kilometers away. Those who prefer the salty air will find the coastal cities of Ostend, Knokke, De Haan or even De Westhoek just a stone's throw away. Cyclists and hikers can wander endlessly along junction routes, through quiet nature reserves such as the Uitkerkse Polder and Het Zwin. Whether you choose tranquility, nature or culture - from this nature house everything is within reach. Extras on request: *E-bike rental in cooperation with the local bicycle dealer (24 hours in advance reservation) *Bath linen package (2 medium + 2 large bath towels) *The cost for use of hot tub and sauna will be settled on the spot. *From May 1, 2026, we offer Solexes for rent.

A lovely little house, well-laid-out, and fully equipped. The sauna and hot tub give it a luxurious feel.
Mooi huisje, nette indeling, complete uitrusting. De sauna en de hottub geven het een luxe uitstraling.
The cottage is located in a quiet spot in the village. There is plenty of nature in the surrounding area where you can bike and hike.
Het huisje ligt op een rustige plek in het dorpje. In de omgeving is er veel natuur waarin je kunt fietsen en wandelen.

Great. That's fine.
Prima. Dik in orde
We absolutely loved the cottage, the garden, and the hot tub. The surroundings are wonderfully peaceful, with lots of birds. The owners are friendly and helpful. We highly recommend it. We’d love to come back again.
We hebben onwijs genoten van het huisje, de tuin en de hottub. De omgeving is heerlijk rustig met veel vogels. De eigenaren zijn vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Echt een aanrader. We komen graag nog eens terug.

A really lovely place with exceptionally friendly hosts; a great base for active and cultural outings. De Haan is a beautifully preserved coastal town, and Bruges needs no introduction (it’s simply stunning), but for nature lovers and birdwatchers, the Uitkerkse Polder visitor center is definitely worth a visit.
The village of Houtave has a charming historic center with a great little restaurant and a café with a lovely terrace.Heel fijne plek met bijzonder vriendelijke gastvrouw en -heer, prima uitvalsbasis voor actieve en culturele uitstapjes. De Haan is een mooi bewaarde kustplaats en Brugge behoeft geen aanbeveling (is simpelweg prachtig) maar voor de natuurliefhebber en vogelspotter is het bezoekerscentrum Uitkerkse Polder ook zeker een aanrader.
Het dorp Houtave heeft een mooie historische kern met een prima restaurantje en café met fijn terras.The cottage is located on the outskirts of the village, with a view of the garden and the meadows. From the various terraces, you can enjoy nature at any time of day: the beautifully landscaped garden, birdsong, the sheep and chickens in the pasture, and, in my case, in early September, stunning cloudy skies!
Het huisje ligt aan de rand van het dorp met uitzicht op de tuin en de weilanden. Vanaf de verschillende terrassen kan op elk moment van de dag genoten worden van de natuur; de mooi aangelegde tuin, vogelgezang, de schapen en kippen in de wei en in mijn geval, begin september, prachtige wolkenluchten!
