In the immediate surroundings of our village there is plenty to do and see! Medieval eyecatchers like Gent (Ghent), Brugge (Bruges), Antwerpen (Antwerp), Oudenaarde and Brussel (Brussels) are less than one hour driving away. Gent is reachable by direct bus in less than 45 minutes (or 20 minutes by car). The bus stops at our door and in the very heart of the city; so no fuss with parking! These cities give ample of opportunities to shop, visit and taste the finest our country has to offer.

We have a surprisingly amount of nature that is typical for Flanders. Meadows and fields, wild flowers, a coastal area with beautiful sandy beaches and dunes and forests big and small that boost with birds and small wildlife. The best features are the many marked wandering and (mountain) biking paths that form a grid, leading you to the very heart of nature, or the centre of the town. The choice is yours.

A nice contrast are the many cultural activities Flanders has to offer. Our opera houses are amongs the very best, and several of our museums rank very high or host award winning exhibitions. And I haven't even started about our dining culture. So much to do and see! We take great satisfaction in taking you of the beaten path and show you amazing places. Will you let us surprise you?

Note worthy are 2019: SMAK (Museum for modern and contemporary art) 'Highlights for the future' exhibition and 2020: 400 years Jan van Eyck 'Adoration of the mystic lamb'.

London, Paris and Amsterdam are less than 3 hours away by train. Our coastline and sandy beaches are 1 hour driving by car or train. Forests within walking distance.
