In 2015 we moved with the entire family from Gentbrugge to Oudenaarde: new school, new neighbors, new city and especially new surroundings. We were happy to exchange city life for “life in the country”, not coincidentally the theme of our drop-in party. Exciting! Because that included the renovation of an old farm. A nice new project. 😊
And how did we end up in Oudenaarde? Coincidence or not? As an avid cyclist, Philippe has often cycled in Oudenaarde because those extra 25 km from Ghent to Oudenaarde are peanuts, right? The Garmin leads him along De Beekwegel, the path that runs past the farm. When he sees the ‘for sale’ sign at the gate of “Het Sparrenhof”, the name of the farm at the time, he slams on his brakes. This is it! This is the house we have been dreaming of together for years. That same evening, after one or maybe two bottles of wine, we pluck up all our courage and call the real estate agent to say, “We’re doing it!”
Unsuspecting that 8 years later we would start another side project: our holiday home In ‘t Wiel.
Catch your breath and settle into our holiday home at the foot of the Flemish Ardennes!
In 't Wiel is located between the meadows in the outskirts of Eine. All you have to do is close the door and you can set off for beautiful walks and cycle rides.
Thanks to the house's good location near the N60 motorway, many cultural and sporting activities are easily and quickly accessible, even by bicycle.
You stay in complete privacy, both inside and outside, but we are happy to help make your stay even more pleasant!
