Description

Amélie, our daughter instantly fell in love with this little wooden house that seems to have escaped from the fairy tale of Hansel and Gretel. Chalet Amélie was completely renovated and extended with great care and love in the period 2019-2021. The original structure of the chalet from 1978 was preserved, to which the chalet now owes its beautiful wood tone. The entire chalet is equipped with shutters that can be easily opened and closed.
Bird houses were strategically hung on the trees on the terrain, so from the chalet you can see birds coming and going. Squirrels are also among our regular daily visitors.

This chalet is equipped with all modern comforts, i.e. central heating on natural gas, wood stove, smart TV, DVD player, dishwasher, stove, oven, microwave, dolce gusto espresso machine, kettle, air fryer, juicer, electronic scales, stone and raclette grill, outdoor charcoal barbecue, washing machine, dryer, modern bathroom with rain shower ... Authenticity with all comforts, wonderful!

We hope you like our chalet as much as we do. Do you want to discover why we are so in love with this chalet and this place? Book your stay now and come and enjoy together, make nice memories that you can cherish forever.

Seating area

We created an ideal seating area full of cosiness and comfort, where you can relax. A warm, cosy sitting area to relax in after a day of walking, mountain biking or just to chill, rest, enjoy, talk, relax, ... The seating area is formed by a 2-seater and 3-seater with pouf and a wood-burning stove.

  • The 3-seater can be pulled out into a full bed or simply as a lounge to relax in.
  • In the pouf, you will find numerous games.
  • Thanks to the wood stove, a warm radiance is spread, which makes you sink even deeper into relaxation.
A movie night is organised in no time, thanks to the smart TV where you can login to your Netflix, Disney+ or You Tube account. Prefer a party game? They are also present, just like reading books and puzzles.

Cooking will be a joy in the completely renovated kitchen with a real bar with bar stools, which is the ideal aperitif or tasting bar.

The kitchen is fully equipped with a cooking plate, oven, microwave, dishwasher, fridge and freezer, but also with a Dolce Gusto espresso machine, kettle, juicer, air fryer, stone and raclette grill.

Who are we ?

We are a family of three from the Belgian province of Limburg. Our daughter Amélie instantly fell in love with this little wooden house that seems to come straight out of the Hansel and Gretel fairy tale.

We are fond of cosiness, authenticity, charm and enjoying life. This chalet therefore represents everything that we are and what we stand for. We hope to give everyone who stays with us a unique, authentic experience and an unforgettable moment.

And of course we hope that everyone will treat our chalet with the same care and love as we do, so that everyone can come and enjoy it for a long time to come.
