Enjoy the unspoiled nature, the birdsong, and the rustling of the trees by the lake on our property. Explore the hilly surroundings or admire the breathtaking starry sky while savoring a good glass of wine..... You’ll stay in a romantic nature house (Dutch owners) with a private entrance and unobstructed views of the meadows and garden. The cozy nature house (28 m²) accommodates 2 (max. 3) people and is equipped with every comfort. The open-concept living/sleeping area features the kitchen, a dining table, and a seating area with two armchairs. There is also a comfortable bed (160x200) and a second bed (140x200) on the small mezzanine. The luxurious bathroom can be closed off with a wooden sliding door. The high ceiling (highest point 3.60 m) gives the space a spacious feel. Plenty of light streams in through the garden doors and the skylight. Outside, there are two terraces and a BBQ. Pets are allowed (up to two), provided they are well-behaved and pose no danger to our cats and ducks (see terms and conditions).

Nature and surroundings

Up in the hills, in the French Ardennes, lies the property we purchased in 2014, situated in a small hamlet. In addition to an old and dilapidated house, there was also a wonderful nature reserve with two lakes. The house has since been renovated, and we’ve built an addition that houses the gite (2023). The property covers 1.5 hectares, most of which is and will remain a nature reserve. It’s an ideal habitat for all kinds of wildlife. We regularly spot roe deer, wild boars, foxes, squirrels, and all sorts of birds (including birds of prey). Carp, wild ducks, and occasionally a coypu also swim in the large lake. For that reason, it’s not really suitable for swimming. However, you can enjoy the unspoiled nature, the silence, the birdsong, and the rustling of the trees. What a wonderful way to start the day with a walk around the lake (your best chance to spot wildlife). Or simply relax with a good book until evening falls and it gets too dark to read any further.....

    The owners of the nature house “Joli Sauvage,” Timo and Nanja, are incredibly kind and helpful, and they’re huge animal lovers.
    The house may not be big, but everything worked and was well maintained.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    If you want to slow down and unwind, this is the place for you.
    You can really enjoy the silence and nature here, and the beautiful starry sky, because it still gets truly dark here.
    The cottage looked neat
    and was very clean.

    For us, it gets the highest score: very comfortable, cozily furnished, clean, and they’ve really thought of everything to make your stay as pleasant as possible.
    A warm and welcoming reception from the owners. Thanks to the cottage’s location and the large garden, there’s plenty of privacy to do your own thing, and it’s also really nice to interact with the owners if you’d like to. Top-notch!
    And of course the animals—the ducks in the owners’ garden are so charming, along with the cats, the dog, and the birds…
    And then there’s the peace and quiet… Pure enjoyment with a capital (and soft) G!

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    If you love peace, space, and nature, book this cottage in the French Ardennes. The French countryside features rolling hills, quaint villages, and charming towns in the surrounding area. During early morning walks, I spotted many animals, such as roe deer, birds of prey, and even a fox.

    Because of the heat, we were often forced to find another spot. Fortunately, there was the pond with the little grove where we sought relief from the heat.
    We did miss having a village café, various dining options, and places to meet people from the village or tourists. But this cottage is definitely highly recommended for anyone looking to unwind.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    The nature house truly lives up to its name—it’s wonderful to unwind in such a lovely spot. It was very hot when we were there, but it stayed reasonably cool inside the house. The various resting spots each offer a different view of the garden and nature. And we got to see quite a few little animals.
