Nature house in Vlessart
Luxembourg, Belgium
- 4 persons
- 2 bedrooms
- WiFi
- Pets allowed
Your vacation rental—ideal for one to four people—is newly built using natural materials (wooden frame, interior and exterior wood siding, and insulation made of straw bales and clay). The cottage faces due south to take advantage of the sun’s warmth in winter, and the terrace is sheltered from the summer sun and overheating by a roof/terrace designed to track the sun’s path. The decor blends Alpine and Ardennes styles: wood, forest-inspired accents, and the ever-present “Lord of the Forest.” You’ll find a stag on a tapestry, its antlers above the fireplace, and incorporated into various decorative objects. Some walls are made of clay, while others are clad with planks salvaged from old Austrian chalets and barns. You’ll experience all the warmth and beauty of natural, noble materials, all harmoniously coordinated in warm colors.
Nature and surroundings
Located in the Ardennes, in the authentic, rural, wooded village of Vlessart, in the heart of the 7,000-hectare beech forest known as the Grande Forêt d'Anlier. Just outside the Gaume region and the recently established Semois Valley National Park, where you can go kayaking. It is ideally situated for hiking, biking, and horseback riding directly from the cottage, with more than 50 routes ranging in distance from 2 to 50 km. It is close to important historical sites such as Orval Abbey, the castles of Bouillon and Vianden, the Gallo-Roman museums and archaeological sites in Arlon and Habay, and the Battle of the Ardennes museums in Bastogne. The deer rut is the call of the stags during mating season. You can hear it in Vlessart by opening the window after sunset from mid-September to mid-October.

A well-maintained cottage with a thoughtful host and a pleasant setting.
Goed verzorgd huisje met een attente gastheer en een fijne omgeving.
We had a wonderful week. The garden is large and completely fenced in, so our dog could roam around freely.
Since we were here in late September, it was rutting season for the red deer. Vincent told us about an event in a nearby village. It was a walk to listen to the stags bellowing, followed by a tasting of local products. It was a lot of fun and very tasty. Afterward, we could even hear the stags bellowing in the garden.We hadden een heerlijke week. De tuin is groot en helemaal omheind, dus onze hond kon rustig rondscharrelen.
Doordat we eind september hier waren, was het bronstijd voor de edelherten. Via Vincent werden we gewezen op een activiteit in een nabijgelegen dorp. Dit was een wandeling om naar het burlen van de herten te luisteren met een proeverij van streekproducten. Erg leuk en lekker. We konden de herten daarna zelfs horen burlen in de tuin.This text is automatically translated. -

All right, it has all the amenities.
Goed, van alle gemakken voorzien.
Beautiful surroundings, very peaceful. The cottage is fully equipped. The kitchen is well-stocked. The spacious yard is well-fenced, so our dog could run around freely. It’s also a great base for hikes around Habay, a visit to Orval Abbey, and a day trip to Luxembourg. Vicent is a friendly and wonderful host.
Mooie omgeving, erg rustig. De gîte is van alle gemakken voorzien. De keuken is goed uitgerust. De ruime tuin is goed omheind waardoor onze hond vrij rond kon lopen. Het is ook een goede uitvalsbasis voor wandelingen rond Habay, de abdij van Orval en een dagtrip naar Luxemburg. Vicent is een vriendelijke en goede host.

Beautiful & spacious garden. A lovely spot to eat outside, relax in the hammock, or play badminton, for example :). The interior was also very nicely decorated, clean, and equipped with everything you could possibly need.
The owner of the cottage is incredibly kind and helpful—from sending us hiking and mountain biking routes to offering extra blankets in case we got cold.
A highlight of our vacation was especially the area surrounding the cottage and the e-mountain biking (with the mountain bikes we were able to rent from the owner). That was organized really well; and it was a very active and adventurous way to explore the area. I highly recommend it!Mooie & ruime tuin. Fijne plek om buiten te eten, uit te rusten in de hangmat of badminton te spelen bijvoorbeeld :). Ook binnen was het erg leuk ingericht, schoon en alles wat je maar nodig zou kunnen hebben is aanwezig.
De eigenaar van het huisje is ontzettend aardig en behulpzaam; met het verzenden van wandel- en mountainbike routes tot het aanbieden van extra dekens voor als we het koud zouden hebben.
Een hoogtepunt van onze vakantie was vooral de omgeving van het huisje en het e-mountainbiken (met de mountainbikes die we van de eigenaar konden huren). Dat was super goed geregeld; en het was een hele sportieve en avontuurlijke manier om de omgeving te verkennen. Echt een enorme aanrader!The area was wonderfully peaceful; there was beautiful nature within walking distance where you wouldn't run into a soul for kilometers.
Het was heerlijk rustig in de omgeving; met op loopafstand hele mooie natuur waar je kilometers lang niemand tegenkomt.
