Holiday Home Description
Our pondhouse is a part of an ancient farm of the 17th century – very idyllic with a wonderful view over the rolling hills and the silhouette of the spire of the village church on the horizon. The situation is in between the borders to Germany and the Netherlands. The point of the three borders is very near (6 km).
To the holiday home belongs a large, calm and completely fenced garden with a small playground for children: swing, slide, sandbox, basketball basket, net for volleyball and badminton and a rocking horse on a spring. The paved pathway and a small asphalted square make it possible for the children to use skateboards or roller skates. As we have 4 children who are almost grown up now, we still own a lot of outdoor material. According to the age of your children we can lend you a playtractor, a tricycle, a “bobbycar” or other toys. On the glass covered terrace, you will find nice teak-furniture and a barbecue. In addition, you dispose of a totally fenced natural pond, where you can have a pick nick.

CURRENT HINTS
During the cold season, the house is very cosy and warm because of its floor heating. Later, you can enjoy the very first warm sunlight of spring under the glass covered terrace.
Garden and landscape are very beautiful. In spring, the lively colours of many daffodils and tulips contrast with the fresh green of the rolling hills. The fruit trees that are planted around the pond start to blossom magnificently in April.
You will find a variety of signposted trekking paths; especially walks over meadows with wild daffodils. A bit later, end of April or begin of may, the meadows get yellow because of millions of dandy lion flowers – the very best season for walking across meadows, hills and streams with magnificent views over the landscape of our wonderful region called: “Pays de Herve”.
There is a natural reserve near Plombières at a stream called ” Gueule” with a very unique flora called “GALMEI” that is present because of the remains of ancient lead-mines.
