L'échappée - Gîte de charme

De gastheer was zeer vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Het appartement is prachtig gelegen in het groen met riant uitzicht. Het appartement is van alle gemakken voorzien met een mooie keuken om zelf te kokkerellen en een mooie sfeervolle open haard. Echt een aanrader voor mensen die van de natuur en wandelen houden en dan in de avond lekker knus zelf willen koken in een romantische omgeving.

Viel Platz und sehr gut ausgestattet.

Wir hatten nichts auszusetzen.

The owner is very nice and the contact was great. We could communicate in English, which is not always the norm in Belgium. The place is very beautiful and the neighborhood is calm and quiet.

The WiFi reception is weak in one side of the apartment.

The gite was very spacious and bright, and quiet. The bed and pillows were comfortable. The shower was good with plenty of hot water. The veranda was sunny, with a view to the fields, and there was an umbrella available for when it was too hot. There were good walks to take the dog around the gite, and also a bit further. The dog was welcome. The host was very friendly and helpful and gave us good tips to visit local gardens and pubs. We recommend the Jardins d'Eau d'Annevoie, Arboretum Robert Lenoir (free, in Rendeaux), and the Abbeys Orval and Maredsous. There are many other beautiful villages and towns to visit at a short distance from the gite. There was also a very nice folder listing some good restaurants, places to go etc and also where to buy and taste local produce (excellent cheeses, salamis, ice cream, fruit etc). Overall, a wonderful stay.

Very minor things - occasionally the internet was interrupted. And I could not find a tea pot! Also - it was not a problem for us, but Sinsin has no pub or local shops so one needs to drive or cycle to the nearest little town for a drink or to do some shopping.
