About this property

Chalet in Barvaux-sur-Ourthe with sauna

THE UNIQUE STORY, AS TOLD BY THE HOMEOWNER This house came about during the first lockdown in Belgium. The owner was walking through his garden when he stumbled upon this quiet spot. There was only a tree standing there. The owner, found this place relaxing and pleasant, imagined building a cabin there. Then his neighbour joined him, a specialist in wooden caravans. Soon a good cooperation developed between these two. The hut was conceived by the owner and created by his neighbor. The two friends build the cabin from A to Z. Initially, the owner wanted to preserve the tree, the only one in this part of the garden, in the middle of the hut, but unfortunately this was not possible for waterproofing reasons. However, his neighbour managed to integrate the tree into the terrace, right next to a Scandinavian bath. After a few months, the owner realized that his tree house was rather symmetrical and he didn't like it. So he asked his neighbor, who has since become a friend, to "break down this terrible symmetry." To this end, the right side was extended, the door moved and the living room rearranged. This change made the living room impressively larger. The cabin was a beautiful and lengthy project that took 6 months and was constantly changing until the last day. The homeowner used beautiful materials and provides maximum comfort to its tenants. Many couples must have been impressed, as several Belgian couples chose this wooden cabin for their honeymoon because they could not go abroad. DETAILS - This wooden cabin, almost 2.5 meters above ground, features a large terrace with a Scandinavian hot tub. It is located in a very quiet area and is ideal for nature lovers - Enjoy walks through the forest (1 km) or a canoe trip on the Ourthe River (500 m) - The 'smallest city in the world', Durbuy, is located nearby and hosts numerous fun attractions. This place with a unique identity is surrounded by water and forests and fun events are organized throughout the year. The ''Land of Durbuy'' has 18 archaeological sites and 29 beautiful nature reserves - Visit the Chateau de Petite Somme, better known as Radhadesh. This 12th century castle combines the Middle Ages with Eastern culture and guided tours are offered - Just relax in the sauna or the Scandinavian hot tub and enjoy pure relaxation in the middle of nature. Because the residence is on private property you can enjoy ultimate privacy here - The kitchen is equipped with a sink, a stove and an oven and the living room is furnished with 2 comfortable sofas with storage space - The mezzanine is equipped with a comfortable double bed and a chest of drawers to store things

De boomhut is minimalistisch, maar ideaal voor wie niet veel nodig heeft. Het was er proper en netjes. De kleine verwarming binnen doet zijn werk uitstekend, ook de hottub was proper en eens opgewarmd zeer lang fijn van temperatuur. Het is een Ideaal vertrekpunt voor wie graag gaat wandelen. Wij hebben er een fantastisch weekend gehad.

Vår vistelse i det drömlika chaleten i Barvaux-sur-Ourthe var inget mindre än magisk! Beläget i ett fredligt område, är stugans design både charmig och funktionell, Vi älskade särskilt att koppla av i det skandinaviska badet, omgiven av natur, Köket var välutrustat, vilket gjorde det enkelt att laga mat, och vardagsrummet var mysigt för kvällar spenderade med spel, Bara en kort promenad till Ourthe-floden gav oss en härlig kanoupplevelse, Rekommenderas starkt för par som söker en romantisk semester!

Fantastischer Aufenthalt in diesem schönen Baumhaus! Der Ort war äußerst gemütlich und sehr sauber. Wir haben dort ein Wochenende mit meinem Freund verbracht und es fühlte sich wunderbar an. Das nordische Bad war so schön und es blieb so lange warm, dass wir es am nächsten Tag schafften, wieder hineinzugehen, und es fühlte sich immer noch warm an. Wir wurden herzlich empfangen und haben in dem bequemen Bett sehr gut geschlafen. Die Aussicht ist wunderschön, man kann nachts die Sterne sehen. Das Haus, der eigene Garten und die Terrasse sind so ausgerichtet und gelegen, dass Sie viel Privatsphäre haben und die Natur genießen können. In der Gegend gibt es viel zu unternehmen und Sie können sich auch entscheiden, einfach dort zu bleiben und in dieser ruhigen Umgebung zu entspannen. Ich empfehle es sehr!!

Ziemlich kompakter Aufenthalt, Kein Stauraum zum Aufbewahren Ihrer Kleidung. Die Sauna ist sehr klein, man kann nur sitzen und nicht liegen. Es ist sauber und der Besitzer ist freundlich. War ordentlich, als wir ankamen. Wir finden es ziemlich teuer, unsere Erwartungen waren höher.

Het chalet was gezellig en had alles wat we nodig hadden, We hielden van de nabijheid van de Ourthe-rivier voor kanoën en de boswandelingen voor wandelen, Een perfecte plek voor een natuuruitje!
