Without doubt anything more than okay. The space and location are great. The hospitality heartwarming. Definitely recommended!

Martine welcomed us very warmly despite our late arrival, having been delayed on the road. The apartment with separate entrance is spacious and great for 2 people, and beautifully landscaped. We only stayed one night as in transit, but we would have stayed a little longer. Perfect stay, clean rooms! we highly recommend !!

all right

A nice B & B, very welcoming and wonderfully decorated. Also very nice that get interpreted where it comes from at breakfast, too many products from the garden. Tasty and creative!

Nice natural environment, good appartement and great breakfast.

A fantastic BnB experience. A very pleasant welcome and tour of a beautiful room. The breakfast was extensive and very tasty with products from our own garden or from the region. Beautiful hiking tips received from Martine to further explore the region. Highly recommended!

Warm welcome in a prime spot. Quiet yet close to Antwerp. Slept, got a delicious breakfast. The night before, on the advice of Martine down a country lane to the restaurant walked close. The room is pleasant and the beds sleep well. Very nice all. Thanks!

Very welcoming reception with even tea (or coffee), cookie and chocolate, fruit and nuts. Lots of space with a separate kitchen / bathroom. Very quiet. A five-star breakfast. Modest and pleasant host and hostess.

We had such a lovely stay! The house and neighborhood are really cute. You definitely feel safe and welcome in Sylvie's home. As the swimming pool was under maintenance, we'll certainly be back to enjoy it too ;) Thank you for the stay, my friends and I had a great time.

All perfect - as always! *****

Nice place, nice surroundings. We booked this place as we could not find decent family accommodation in Antwerp. This was perfect, spacious and close enough to the city. Friendly hosts.

Great! Fantastic! Our employees favorite place to stay in that area

Very nice cosy place and great location! My friends are very satisfied! The owner was friendly and welcome. Thank You Silvie!

Amazing hosts, amazing place! Nothing to complain. Especially Silvie made this stay memorable! I can fully recommend this accommodation!

Silvie and her family are the best hosts ever – As you can see on the amount of ratings we have left for her already, we are always coming back to her Oase Van Rust – And that is for good reason!

Sylvie was a very nice hostess. She was very helpful, and regularly asked us if we were satisfied. We were even allowed to collect eggs. Her husband has advised us fun activities for Antwerp, this is like us very well. And the pool was lovely too! Overall, highly recommended!

schönes, saubere Zimmer und sehr ruhig. Angenehmer Aufenthalt.

We spent an amazing time. The cabin is incredibly cosy and the nature is absolutely peaceful. Willy was there to welcome us -as Gil was away at the time- and everything ran very smoothly. We would definitely go back there again.

The ideal place for lovers of rest and nature lovers ... like us! we had a relaxed and we felt immediately "at home / at home" ... so we really had beneficent holiday, plus we had good weather for walking on the moors and heather go cycling on the banks of the small Nete. Gil and Marleen thank you for your warm hospitality and certainly soon!

Go there with confidence! This cottage is a pearl, a cozy little love nest. It is perfectly decorated, practical and functional. It feels good and at home right away! Nothing to say: the fully equipped kitchen, bathroom with large bath under the stars, a big cat very cuddly to keep you company, nature, calm ... 3 days there and you come back and recharge for some time!

We stayed in this lovely house for New Year's and it was the best decision! Gil and Marleen were away, but had organised for their friend Willy to let us in and be the contact. When we arrived the house was already heated and the lights on. We immediately felt at home as the interior is really lovely with many little bits and pieces from across the globe to look at. We enjoyed cooking in the well-equipped kitchen, and walking in the quiet countryside nearby. A lovely feature is the skylight in the bedroom from where you can watch the stars at night. All our needs were met, and our week-long stay was wonderfully relaxing! We hope to return – maybe during the summer next time... Thank you, Gil and Marleen (and Willy)!

It is a lovely cottage in a beautiful place. You will be very well received and everything is explained well. In the woods you can make beautiful walks and is just 30 minutes from Antwerp. The place to escape and unwind in nature.

We were greeted very kindly and we immediately felt very well in this place so charming. We spent three magical days quietly in contemplation of nature and wonderful autumn colors. the cottage and grounds are exactly what you could want: great charm, personality and comfort! Gill thank you for sharing this beautiful place!

A wonderful place to unwind. The house is fully equipped and exudes a very nice atmosphere. A must for anyone who wants to have a nice relax. We will definitely come back again.

Really enjoyed our stay! The garden and surroundings are beautiful, and the chalet is a perfect place to relax.

We had a wonderful week in Oljana's house. It is very spacious with a nice pool (which we unfortunately did not have much use because of the weather). There is a large sitting room from where you are on the large terrace (with awning!) Comes, where guests are seated, facing the beautiful garden full of flowers. The neighborhood is very quiet with beautiful houses. 500m away there is a cute restaurant where you can eat good steak. Antwerp is a half hour drive. In short: a great week in Schilde. Thanks for the hospitality, Oljana!

The house is spacious and comfortable. The garden is huge and beautiful with enough garden furniture to relax. The pool is also great. We stayed in this house with two families and had a wonderful time. Oljana is a very nice host, she was quick to respond and flexible. Would really recommend this house!

A big thank you to this cozy house and flowers. We had the impression we feel in our family home. A real pleasure, and the quiet of your subdivision was very relaxing after our days in the port of Antwerp to the Tall Ship Race 2016.

Our family, my parents and our three children had our first stay with Airbnb in this lovely villa in Schilde. The place is spacious and provides everything you need including wifi, very well equipped kitchen, nice terrace and grill for bbq, and swimming pool. All our children loved the house with lots of toys and the garden where to play. The house was also safe for a one-year-old to crawl around. A car is need when staying here, since the nearest bus stop was 2,4 kilometres away. The arriving and departure procedure was really flexible. Due to the fact that we were new to staying in people’s houses, we might have needed a personal introduction into the house. Anyway there was a welcoming letter and booklet of information in the house and we managed to sort everything out. I can recommend this beautiful villa to everyone planning to explore Belgium by car, and especially to families with children!

Un séjour très agréable dans une belle villa au cœur d'une zone d'habitation cossue et idyllique. Avec les deux poules au fond du grand jardin et les chevaux de l'autre côté de la rue, nous avions parfois du mal à convaincre les enfants de faire des excursions . Nous y sommes tout de même parvenus tous les jours et avons passé une excellente semaine. Anvers et ses nombreux centres d'intérêt ainsi que le parc naturel Kalmthoutse Heide nous ont beaucoup plu. La communication avec la propriétaire Oljana a parfaitement fonctionné. À conseiller absolument ! Cordialement Virginie

Begrüßung eine Flasche Eine Beschädigung der Beschreibung Schlaf

nice big room and perfect host, nice breakfast and dinner !!

Inge made us feel extremely welcome. She was a fantastic host. She gave us a lift into town one day and told us some handy hints of places to see. The apartment was beautiful. We had an excellent weekend, thank you Inge

The stay in the apartment was safe and cozy, the communication great and reliable. Everything was as excepted for two nights. Would definitely book again for another trip to Antwerp. Greetings!

It was as expected, the place is really nice, Malle is beautiful. Inge is a great person, she is very supportive, she is always attentive to help you when you need it. Many thanks/ Gracias Inge.

A nice comfortable stay in Malle. As indicated very near Janssen in Beerse, which I had come. Smooth communication via (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) Inge. Definitely a pleasant stay with no problems.

Love Inge! I was very happy with you! I felt in your beautiful little garden house very well. And the evening sitting in the garden ... that made my Antwerpentrip for vacation! Have been looking forward to meet you and have something to talk about. Thank you (for coffee and beer! :))

Whangamata September 3 Our stay for almost a month in Westmalle was everything we could wish for , Inge is a fine host and loves people to stay at her place and feel at home. Sure we like to recommend this place for people who like comfort in a lovely Environment ,will book with Inge again if travel to far away Flanders is needed, Cheers, Ludo And Mieke Heylen New Zealand

Rustig, cosy

We were warmly welcomed. The room is very well equipped and welcoming, like a hotel room. In addition to the rooms are ready and hot and cold drinks. The hosts are very friendly, open and inviting. We had a very nice evening together with interesting and varied conversations. In the morning we received a generous and loving breakfast. We would definitely come back.

Viviane and Jon were wonderful hosts making me feel very much at home. Place is spacious and very clean. This is a quiet residential setting and would be great for business and family travelers. Beautiful grounds, I would have stayed longer...

What a neat place Viviane and Jan created there. The room is large and very quiet area. Fine bed and separate bathroom. In addition, once each morning with fresh breads, coffee and aes whatever we wished. Viviane and Jan are very nice hosts. We got a very warm after a long car journey. We would recommend anyone to visit this place!

Spacious room with desk and cozy reading book. Very comfortable bed. Private bathroom with shower, toilet, washbasin. Very hospitable people!

Wonderfully quiet sleeping in the outskirts of Antwerp. Everything tiptop. Very warm welcome, including the two adorable cats.

The host canceled this reservation 19 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Zeer aangenaam verblijf in mooie rustige wijk en Viviane is zeer vriendelijke gastvrouw

Gil and Marleen were very welcoming. We mistakenly booked a day later than we arrived and they were very flexible and helpful. Both were very kind to our children.

Gil & Marleen are very sweet and very helpful in case you are looking for answers or directions to places in the area. They are well-traveled and have a worldview perspective. Very interesting to talk to.

I wasn't there myself, but I did plan the trip for my friends and once they came back they said it had been amazing and that I could not have chosen a better house ^-^ they really enjoyed their stay. It is on my list now for future weekends with my housemates!

Gil welcomed us warmly. He and his wife stayed in the cottage next to us, but that was no problem. The place is very special and relaxing, ideal for a family stay in the summer with good weather.

The location of a pine forest, quiet and safe, close to the center of Nijlen, rent you a bike for 5 euros the day, I iva to the supermarket in it, are just 10 minutes Truly a place to relax. Cottage and rustic environment, we were able to fire, play table tennis and foosball, has a trampoline This accommodation is ideal for summer as the best space is outside, tables, many chairs, shade, fresh air It was very nice and lovely hosts

If you want a fantastic time with your family and spend your day outdoors then this is the place to be! We, a family of 4 incl. 2 young teenage daughters, couldn't believe our luck with this place - staying 10 days! How about having breakfast around the campfire; going for walks in the surrounding beautiful nature area; kids playground behind the house; barbecue and dinner around the campfire... and the list goes one. Thanks again for allowing us to stay at your place Gil and Marleen!

We were greeted very well by Gil and Marleen atypical in this cottage in the heart of a nature reserve, beautiful environment, beautiful walks to do, very relaxing. Perfect!

Great environment! Ideal for an adventurous feel. If the kids are great, we go back again.

Our stay at Jef's chalet was amazing! If you're looking for a peaceful place far from the stress of the city to spend a relaxing weekend with your friends or family, this is definitely the place to go! Jef is very kind, welcoming and available. His place is simple and cosy, very convenient for 4/5 people. The environment is magical, surrounded by trees, you won't be disappointed. The sauna is such a plus.

The host canceled this reservation 11 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

Jef was really helpful as there were diversions and road closures in place because of roadworks. He explained everything clearly and was very helpful. Next time we hope to have time to try the sauna!

Everything is like in the ad. Very nice house, in a small forest. Comfortable. Good beds, good shower, everything there. Sauna! Was great. Nice environment with apparently some good restaurants, but we did not make it there, since we liked it to stay in the house,play boardgames and drink wine :)

Everything you need for a weekend away with friends

Fantastique week-end passé dans cette petite maison au milieu de la forêt ! Moment paisible et ressourçant, possibilité de faire un feu de camp et villages sympas à visiter dans les alentours (Tongerlo, Westerlo, ...). Nous y retournerons sûrement :)

Heel mooi chalet op rustige locatie in het bos. Zeer gastvrij ontvangen door Jef. Vuurplaats op grasveldje voor het chalet en natuurlijk de fantastische houtgestookte sauna. Zeker een aanrader om hier een weekendje te verblijven!

Leuk huisje in het bos, heerlijk relaxen in de natuur, puur genieten! Wij gaan nog wel eens terug!

Super,super host. Anytime again

Pleasant welcome. Nice and quiet location.

We had a great time. Everything was fine during our stay. Valerie was very friendly and helpful. The area is very quiet, you have everything needed to feel like a home.

We felt like home

I stayed at the house for a business trip during which I visited numerous clients around Antwerp, Bruges, and Brussels. Because of the nightmare traffic around Antwerp itself I opted to stay outside of the city. From Schilde it is very easy to get around Flanders and into Antwerp by car and the house is set in a lovely forest which is very relaxing. The flat is neat and modern and you have your own private access, though the family is happy for you to use their kitchen and such. All in all it was perfect for my trip.

Always my pleasure

Again a fantastic stay. The location is great, the cottage is a fairy tale and Ann the sweetest host.

"Spacious, lot of privacy, in the middle of the forest, it has the feeling (and is) an old, long lived, good cared for home with wood stoves and hearths." Ann was very welcoming and her hospitality is amazing. She had made the house cozy and warm at arrival by lighting the firestove. We requested a different arrival time, that was really no problem. The place has been Ann's house for her life, and it breathes a long time of enjoyful living, with so many tiny details. I could really not think of any real points of improvements on either the space or Ann's service. The house was very clean and tidy. It is spacious with the three bedrooms. There is a plenty of privacy and it's a perfect place to relax and chill out either indoors or outdoors. A few remarks of friends (we were with 4): "Relaxed huisje, hartelijke ontvangst, prima plek om een weekendje te ontspannen. Lekker in het bos, maar toch vlak bij dorp met supermarkten, restaurants, etc." "Oja, een prima pizzaoven " (we made our own pizzas from scratch in the wood stove - delicious!) I would wholeheartedly recommend this place. Ann is a great host who showed us around quite nicely, gave us a complete tour and let us be for our stay. It feels like a privilege to be in her house. Thank you again, Ann!

Dear Ann, On arrival you have already let us feel right at home .. What a warm welcome! Even our dog was given to Bulek. The cottage was lovely! So romantic with the heater, all the beautiful furniture and a mega large garden and woods for our dog Bulek which was lovely run around. It just knocked all, like it just came out of a fairy tale. You can feel the love in the house, which makes it even more enjoyable stay. We have really enjoyed it and are totally in love! We feel honored that we were able to stay in your house, thank you very much.

We were honoured to be the first guests at Ann's lovely home. And what a stay it was! Ann greeted us in such a warm way that we knew that this would be a perfect weekend! Nature, rest en good company near the fireplace was exactly what we needed after stressful weeks at work. You will be lucky to visit this beautiful place and have a host like Ann. Thank you for everything! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Wij zijn vereerd om hier als allereerste gasten te mogen verblijven. En wat een verblijf! Bij Ann's warme ontvangst wisten we het: dit gaat een perfect weekend worden! Natuur, rust en goed gezelschap bij haardvuur was precies wat we nodig hadden. Dank voor alles Ann!

The cottage turned out to exceed our expectations. Everything was summed up in one word: fantastic. The hospitality of dear hostess Ann, the garden, the house, the quiet, the woods, everything. Not only do we have a wonderful week, especially our dog Dana has enjoyed great. Lovely run around in the fenced garden, walking through the woods, between a beauty sleep before the fireplace and of course enjoy the yummy cookies they had received from Ann. The cottage itself is lovely to stay in. Everything is so snug and cozy decorated. Every time you look around you is something new on. Delicious all those trinkets. We will definitely come back again!

This is 'my' house in Belgium. I've traveled across half the world with Airbnb. Luxury penthouses shared rooms. Never have I so enjoyed and I been so impressed with a stay and the owner as of this cottage and Ann. Airbnb slowly begins to flow full of companies that offer their properties. The soul of Airbnb's m However, people like Ann, their personal stories and history at the property you are renting. A freshly baked cakes, beers, candies and goodies for the hond..Ann spent so much personal attention to its guests. I am afraid that Ann will soon sit booked once the 5-star reviews are starting to pile up, but if it fails to find a hole I'll definitely be back here often.

Ann's cottage was even better than how it is described, nicely fitted out as a complete home and most importantly of all very quiet! We were looking for a place where we could recharge and enjoy sleeping in and reading all those books that we had on our wishlist. We succeeded in this and if you are a foodie go to restaurant Dessensi in 's-Gravenweezel, it received a Michelin-star a few months ago, but it remained down to earth and the food and service is absolutely amazing! There are bikes that you can use to bike to the local Trappist abbey of Westmalle or take the bus to the centre of Antwerp, 500 meters from the cottage.

Dear Ann, We enjoyed a very special weekend in jouw- back-in-time house! The details were infinitely beautiful: reading lights for a good book, bread baskets, wood, BBQ set, ... The luxury was grandiose: seltzer-making machine, walk-in shower with two shower types of options, the best mattress in the world, a shelter to sit outside with a rain shower, ... And all topped with great simplicity of life: silence, slowness and joyful friendship moments. Unfortunately we were too polite and we are not going to delve into the cabinets. Therefore we only discovered just before leaving the games cupboard. The kids were so excited! Next time we know this closet! Thanks for the delicious cake and all your love for this house. She radiates over to us!

Exceptional location with friendly welcome. Highly recommended. Thanks Tom & Co. And to the next!

Excellent stay in a friendly. Good hosts. Experience worth repeating.

Tom was available on my arrival to bring me through the facilities and explain the use of the power and water on the boat. This was very clear and easy to use. The location on the canal was very quiet and with nature all around. People cycling along the tow path and other barges and boats travelling along the water. Entering the accommodation via the wheel house gives a feeling of being part of the history of the barge and a connection to the working barges of today. The photos represent what is on the boat. the accommodation is separate for the rest of the barge and you feel you are on a working barge. The additional cabin with the bunk beds is a wonderful find. The large TV with multiple channels is an unexpected addition but useful at night. All you need for cooking including fridge freezer and microwave with a washing machine. All power is supplied from the solar cells so environmentally friendly as well. The shower provided excellent hot water and all facilities available. The beds are comfortable and the passing boats provide for the gentle rocking to help sleeping. Sitting outside watching the world go by is very relaxing and an excellent way to enjoy the evening. Tom and his family were always available to answer questions or deal issues. They obvious love living in this environment and I know why. I am Looking forward to the chance to return and spend more time there in the future.

At the top because it was for the renewal of our location! it felt more at ease

Very unique! Good stay, easy access and comfortable place to live. We enjoyed our stay

Tom is a fine host that does everything to make sense to the guests. It's not the cleanest airbnb where we stayed, but it's fine and fine stay. To be repeated

The view is magnificent. 2 days we relaxed in the sun & the water. Thanks again!

A special quiet accommodation with fantastic views. Delicious sleep by rocking the boat and the lapping against the ship. Friendly welcome by Kathleen and Tom. The accommodation is simple: limited kitchen, short beds, but attractive and functional. We miss the rocking of the ship already. In terms of location and atmosphere highly recommended.
