Nature and surroundings
In the Pigeonnier de l'ancienne abbaye de Clairfaye, you'll be in the middle of Picardy fields, in an enclave of organic farming. A hedge planted by our father more than 20 years ago has reached maturity. Together with the groves on the property, they are home to many animals. You're sure to hear pheasants, spot chickadees, robins; with a bit of luck, you'll see a variety of woodpeckers, or a large nutcracker beak. And if you're lucky, you'll spot a woodpecker or a large stone-cracking beak. You'll be immersed in the local biotope, enveloped in the calm and tranquillity of the gentle symphony of whispering wind and the ululation of barn owls and pheasants, the only kings of the estate. Clairfaye Abbey has been a haven of serenity and retreat since 1120... Massages can be booked on site.

A unique little house with more space than you’d expect. Four floors featuring a fully equipped kitchen, a cozy living room with lovely windows, and a cool attic room—all for a one-of-a-kind vacation experience. The extensive use of wood creates a pleasant atmosphere.
Een bijzonder huisje met meer ruimte dan je denkt. Vier woonlagen met een complete keuken, een fijne woonkamer met mooie raampartij en een toffe zolderkamer voor een unieke vakantieervaring. Doordat er veel hout gebruikt is, hangt er een prettige sfeer.
Beautiful surroundings, varied, peaceful, lots of birds and animals, charming villages. Albert is a must-see, with its beautiful basilica. The area is steeped in history.
Prachtige omgeving, afwisselend, rustig, veel vogels en dieren, fijne dorpjes. Albert is een aanrader met de prachtige basiliek. De omgeving ademt historie.

We really enjoyed our time in this special cottage! In early October and still able to have breakfast outside without a coat, lovely in the sun, with the chickens around you. The house itself had good heating, an induction stove, washing machine and a good bathroom. The toilet did have to be flushed several times before everything was flushed. Upstairs was a nice spacious room with a large window that let in a lot of light. The only thing that really bothered us was the fact that there were so many flies, every night there were dozens on the floor so it felt like you had to walk through a fly mine field. Since the couch is under an elevation, and there were flies there too, we did not always relax on the couch. So overall a nice experience for a few days, you have to take the bugs for granted.
We hebben erg genoten van onze tijd in dit bijzondere huisje! Begin oktober en toch nog buiten kunnen ontbijten zonder jas, heerlijk in de zon, met de kippen om je heen. De omgeving is mooi en heerlijk stil.
Het huisje zelf had goede verwarming, een inductiekookplaat, (af)wasmachine en een goede badkamer. De wc moest wel meerdere keren doorgespoeld worden voordat alles doorgetrokken was.
Bovenin was een mooie ruime kamer met een groot raam waardoor er veel licht binnenkwam. Het enige wat ons echt stoorde was het feit dat er zo veel vliegen waren, elke avond lagen er tientallen op de grond waardoor het voelde alsof je door een vliegen mijnveld moest lopen. Aangezien de bank onder een verhoging ligt, en daar ook vliegen lagen, hebben we niet altijd even ontspannen op de bank gelegen.
Over het algemeen dus een mooie ervaring voor een paar dagen, de insecten moet je wel voor lief nemen.Special experience, be prepared for many insects
Bijzondere ervaring, wees voorbereid op veel insecten
