La Buissière, a cottage in Fernelmont

Discover, Relax feeling at home !

An ideally located pied-à-terre

In an architectural setting from the 18th century, formed by the farm castle, the St. Martin's church, and the former presbytery of Pontillas, La Buissière welcomes you in a rural setting typical from the Hesbaye region.

You access the cottage walking through the garden of the presbytery with its boxwood embroidery ; on the other side of the cottage is the acess gate to the natural swimming pool with a view to the fields as far as the eye can see.

 

The guest house location, close to major highways (E42-A15, E411/A4) - between Huy and Namur and less than an hour away from Brussels, Liège, or Leuven - makes it the perfect base camp for many tourist attractions.
