The vacation home is located in a unique natural area, only 1.5 km from the center of the beautiful city of Ypres, known for the First World War and the beautiful location on the hilly Westhoek. Your vacation home is somewhat hidden on a wooded and enclosed property with wild flowers and a natural pond. From the living room and the terrace you have a beautiful view of the garden and the pond. The house has been lovingly restored by the owners and very tastefully furnished. In the living room there is a beautiful bed, which is decorative, but can also serve as an additional place to sleep. In the garden you can enjoy the peace and quiet until late and see the birds that like to drink at the pond. There are also two sheep running around that occasionally say hello.
If you can tear yourself away from this paradise, you can take nice bike rides or go for a walk in the Palingbeek Nature Park, 1 km away. Walk along ponds created by World War I craters, such as Caterpillar and Bluff. Take sporty bike rides on the famous Kemmelberg or the Rode and Zwarte Berg. In Westouter you can admire the landscape from a cable car. If you still have some time, we recommend you to visit the cities of Bruges and Lille (F). Bruges, because of the beautifully preserved medieval city and Lille, because of the beautiful half-timbered houses and impressive buildings in the old town. In both cases you can also enjoy shopping. If the weather is nice, you can be at the beach of De Panne in half an hour, so the vacation home is the perfect place for a varied vacation.
