Nature and surroundings

The French Ardennes are a lot quieter compared to the Belgian Ardennes. The rolling landscape has mainly deciduous forests and in the old villages there are usually no terraces or chip shops. Large cities are quite far away (Charleville-Mezières at 35 kilometers and Reims at 80 kilometers), so there is hardly any light pollution in the evening and the starry sky can be fantastic. The nature house is the place to go for real peace seekers, hikers and bird lovers. Within an hour's drive from the cottage there is a lot to discover, in the house there are suggestions and hiking maps available.
