Lovely apartment right next to the main square of Watou. It's spacious, new and very clean. Everything you need is there, eg for cooking. (You do have to try the Hommelhof restaurant, though!) Good connection with the friendly and helpful owner via messages A special mention goes to the roof terrace - it was perfect for the summer evenings.

Es war fantastisch, sich zu entspannen und neue Energie zu tanken. Wir haben im Ofenhaus zu Abend gegessen und es war auch köstlich. Natürlich sind wir auch in den Westen gefahren, um das mitzunehmen. Dazu gehörte auch die Brauerei Sint Bernardus. Es war wirklich wunderbar. Und ein sehr freundlicher Besitzer.

Unser Besuch war unglaublich! Gastgeberin Ann ist sehr freundlich und hat uns viele Tipps für Sehenswürdigkeiten gegeben. Die Unterkunft war sehr sauber und schön. Sie wohnen über einer alten Feuerwache, die auch die Dekoration der Wohnung darstellt. Es gibt eine Dachterrasse, die ziemlich groß ist. Sie wohnen ganz in der Nähe des Zentrums von Watou, das bereits über viele schöne Terrassen und einen kleinen Supermarkt verfügt, in dem Sie morgens frisches Frühstück kaufen können. Wenn Sie nach einem Tag voller Besichtigungen die Energie haben, können Sie einen 30-minütigen Spaziergang (Google sagt 30 Minuten, wir haben es in 20 Minuten geschafft) zur St. Bernardus-Brauerei mit Dachterrasse machen! Wir werden diese Wohnung allen Menschen empfehlen, die diese Gegend besuchen möchten. Nochmals vielen Dank, Ann.
Ein sehr schönes Apartment mit großer Terrasse und freundlicher Vermieterin.

Het appartement was oké, hoewel ik op basis van de beschrijving iets meer had verwacht. Hoewel het schoon en netjes was, voelde het meubilair een beetje gedateerd aan. De locatie in het centrum van Watou was gunstig voor lokale voorzieningen en we hebben genoten van een paar wandelingen in het dorp. Over het algemeen was het een praktische plek voor onze korte trip, maar ik zou niet zeggen dat het iets buitengewoons was.
