We welcome you to our B&B where comfort and sustainability are seamlessly integrated The apartment (on the second floor) has 2 bedrooms and a living room. Each bedroom has a separate bathroom with a shower. This room has a balcony overlooking the forest and the ecological garden with swimming pond. Both rooms open onto the living room (see photos). Other room also available here.The house was completely renovated in 2016 and (re)built according to passive house rules. Hence it has a very low energy consumption (EPC-7). Electricity is mainly produced by solar panels and stored in batteries. Hot water is generated by the solar water heater (heat pipes). Most materials are of ecological origin: a wooden frame building, insulated with paper (cellulose). Decoration contains mostly recycled materials (e.g. old wooden doors). The house is operated and monitored by a home automation system.
Nature and surroundings
Located along the Scheldedijk in the silence area Weert, the National Park Scheldt Valley and the Global UNESCO Geopark Scheldt Delta. So Ideal for people who want to enjoy peace, quiet and nature. Hikers, whether on foot or by bicycle, can spend the night here and take a break. The B&B is located in the center of a triangle formed by Ghent, Antwerp and Brussels, in the middle of nature along the Scheldt River. It is part of an official "Silence Area" where natural sounds are louder than man-made noise (at least most of the time). Very likely you will spot several animals in the garden or area such as: roe deer, blue heron, kingfisher, spotted and green woodpecker and exceptionally a beaver or a polecat. Your host Jan is also a nature and climate and Sigma guide. Are you interested in a guided walking or cycling tour ? Ask in time.

Owners are very hospitable, and know a lot about the area. Offered breakfast is also mostly organic. cottage is on a quiet road near the Scheldt.
Eigenaren zijn heel gastvrij, en weten veel van de omgeving. Aangeboden ontbijt is ook veelal biologisch.
Huisje ligt aan een rustige weg vlak bij de scheldeFine, The area along the western Scheldt is 1 large nature reserve. Cottage is quiet along a dike, lots of opportunities for cycling and walking.
Prima,
Het gebied langs de westerschelde is 1 groot natuurgebied. Huisje ligt rustig langs een dijk.
Heel veel mogelijkheden om te fietsen en te wandelen.This text is automatically translated.
