Herentals, België

Open for short of long exchanges anywhere.
Surprise me!

I live in a very bright and spacious loft with rooftop terrace in charming Herentals, a very small historical town in the Flemish part of Belgium. Beautiful nature of the Nethevalley are just across the street and good for hours of walking.

Herentals is situated 25 km from Antwerp, mentioned in The New York Times as one of the most beautiful Belgium city's.

Herentals has a very accessible railwaystation, just at 5' walk from here. This station has very frequent services and takes you to Antwerp or Brussels (also airport) in no time. From there you can connect to many areas of the country. Also frequent buses.

My home is situated in the historical city centre.
All kind of shops and supermarkets are just around the corner.
It is alsof a very quite area and the beautiful Beguinage and Nethevalley are just across the street.
I love our Nethe valey, Kempisch Canal and the sanddunes. Good for hours of walking.
But I also like the lively, local markets on Friday and Sunday.
So, an ideal combination for an easy and relax stay!

I live in a very bright and spacious loft on the 3th floor. There is a lift.
There is a big rooftop terrace with beautiful views over the neighbourhood.
There is a Masterbedroom with double bed.
In the living area are 2 brand new sofa beds. Very good quality beds 140 x 200, both for 2 People. Very easy system.

So sleeping place for 6 in total.
You can use free and unlimited internet-acces.

I can alsof offer you a closed parking space (garage).

I have 1 e-bike (possible to use more e- bikes from friends).
Herentals and surroundings have a lot of cycling paths.
A very nice way to discover the area.

There is so much to do, for every age, in Herentals and the surrounding areas. You will not be bored!
The famous familypark 'Bobbejaanland' is just 8 km from here.
 
Belgium is a very little country with distinct cultures and long fascinating histories. But Belgium charms are also found in many less-spectacular corners. Belgium is more than drinking beer, eating 'stoemp', waffles, chips and chocolates!
Belgium is a country of two distinct halves. Dutch speaking Flanders has a flat landscape but is interspersed with fabulous historic cities. They lies close together and are conveniently interconnect by regular trains, even from Herentals. Antwerp is a portcity whose historical credentials are balanced by its vibrant nightlife, café-culture and cutting-edge designer fashions. Sweet little Lier, known for his béguinage, listed by Unesco. Brughes: one of Europe's most romantic getaways. Ghent is known to be one of the most authentic city's. I can also recommend you Mechelen and Leuven. In French speaking Wallonia most attractions are contrastingly rural: caves, castles, bucolic valleys and outdoor activities. Fascinating Liège, Namur with his mighty fortress and pitoresque old town centre, Bouillon with his 'chateau', Dinant, beautifull nature in Rochehout et La Roche-en-Ardennes. The Eastern cantons is best known for the Hautes Fagnes area of moorlands (largest nationally protected naturereserve) that lies between pleasant towns  Eupen and Malmédy. Here you also find the Spa-Francorchamps Belgium Grand Prix Formula 1 circuit.. And than you have Brussels of course. The Grand Place is one of world's most beautifull squares. Don't mis the unique 1985 Atomium.
Belgium is the capital of Europe. Very good connections by highway's, high-speed trains or low-cost flights to other European cities as Amsterdam , Paris, London, Berlin, Madrid, Barcelona, Venice,....
