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

Spacious and very complete apartment with lots of privacy in beautiful surroundings. The country road to it is an obstacle because of all the holes. Highly recommended are Adventure Valley and the caves of Hotton. Along the Our...

A sand/gravel path leads to the entrance of the domain, a beautiful driveway with beautiful trees on both sides. You immediately feel like a big landowner. The domain is so large that you hardly have to leave the site for a sho...

Een prima adres voor een midweek in het najaar. Maar weinig groot-stedelijke facilities, shopping en grootscheepse evenementen zoals "Rhein in Flammen" "Gartenschau" etc.

Beste heer Verdoold,

Dank u voor uw beoordeling. Hoewel we in de natuur zitten, zijn er toch toeristische plaatsen in de buurt. Duitsland ligt welverder weg. Brussel is een uur rijden, dat is dan meer een optie.

Mooie lokatie erg leuk. Enig minpunt dat bestek en de pannen vies waren bij aankomst.
