The Smit family bought the Domaine Ecureuil (= de Eekhoorn) estate in 1997 and found the peace and space they were used to from the tropics. It's our place for the family. The family consists of 3 families and Smit senior with his wife. Together we enjoy nature and the environment there. The Ourthe, the cave on the domain and the road to it are very beautiful scenes. The beavers that have their nest along the Ourthe on the edge of our pasture are very special. To see them requires patience. Together they tackle different projects every year; these projects concern everything, including planting. The involvement is evident from the fact that a tree sometimes has a name. For example, we have Bartje, a spruce that struggles after planting

Upon arrival there was very thoughtfully a Christmas card, a small Christmas tree and a box of chocolates. The manager was friendly and punctual. Marion came to bring a Christmas piece, very sweet! The domain is beautiful, wi...

Beautiful surroundings. Walked a lot. Unfort...

We enjoyed the tranquility. It was very humid in the house, there was a moisture absorber but your clothes and bedding felt clammy.
Wi-Fi is available, if you are lucky, it could be improved. Other than that, it was top no...

There is a lot to do in the area and nature also has a lot to offer.

Because we are surrounded by the woods, the humidity outside in nature can...

Dear Yasmina,
Thank you for your message. I've seen that you enjoyed yourself. The rain for those few days was certainly a pity, although a relief for nature.
A whole family with 3 small children can be heard.

Heel mooi weer gehad en hele leuke mensen.
Alleen de weg naar het huisje toe mag wel wat aan gedaan worden, veel kuilen en g...

Heerlijke ontspannen week gehad!
Mooie rustige omgeving. Eekhoorns, groene spechten, de rivier in de achtertuin, Top!
Wellicht dat de onverharde weg richting het domein wat beter kan. En de WiFi heeft een trage sne...

Mooi gelegen locatie en vriendelijkheid verhuurder is prima. Houdt wel rekening met weinig privacy of rust als je buiten voor je appartement wilt zitten. Niet overal is een scheidingswand bij de zitjes aangebracht en de apparte...

Genoten van de rustige ligging in de natuur. Een weekje er helemaal uit zijn. Genoeg te doen en te zien in de directe omgeving. Wij troffen het dat de familie Smit zelf ook aanwezig was op het landgoed en werden zeer gastvrij o...
