For those who wish to explore nature further, the Kraenepoel nature reserve in Bellem or the nearby Provincial Domain Het Leen are ideal, featuring beautiful walking paths and an impressive arboretum.
Cyclists are also fully catered for thanks to the extensive node network, which leads you along fields, forests, and the scenic Ghent–Bruges Canal.
In addition, the region is also very interesting for business travellers and workers, due to the proximity of several industrial areas in Aalter, Maldegem, and Eeklo. In the surroundings you will find companies and zones such as the Aalter Industrial Park (including Aalter Industriezone / Aalter-Noord), the Maldegem Industrial Park, and in Eeklo the regional business area Eeklo–Kaprijke, with a mix of logistics and production companies. This makes the hotel particularly suitable for both short and long professional stays.
What makes this region so special is the combination of nature, employment, and authenticity. No mass tourism, but peaceful villages, local hospitality, and a relaxed atmosphere where you can unwind after a working day or excursion.
✨ In short: from our hotel, you will discover a versatile region where nature, culture, relaxation, and business opportunities come together perfectly.
