Better than in the photos: a timeless getaway.
Enjoy the luxury of space on our eco-renovated farm (1 ha). Le Trio offers 3 independent units for privacy and a large table for getting together. ★ Heated pool, home theater, enclosed garden, and OFYR barbecue. 15 minutes from Namur/LLN.
Important: Peaceful haven, no parties! (strict respect for the neighborhood). Ideal for a quiet get-together.

The space
The perfect balance between conviviality and privacy! Forget about dormitory-style rentals where everyone is on top of each other. La Cense de Baudecet has been designed for groups who love one another but also value their peace and quiet.

Three cozy spaces for a group:

Le Corps de Logis: The historic heart. 4 cozy bedrooms and 2 bathrooms for families.

Les Écuries: The gathering place. A 50 m² accommodation where you will all dine together around a huge table. In the evening, the living room turns into a private movie room with a 3-meter screen (Netflix and Disney+ included).

La Fabrique: The modern loft. 2 additional bedrooms for those who want a little more privacy.

For “pros” going green: Need to work? Each bedroom has its own Ethernet port. The peacefulness and tranquility of the countryside ensure maximum productivity for your brainstorming sessions.

Guest access
One hectare of freedom, within walking distance of everything.
As soon as you arrive in our private parking lot (up to 7 cars), you will feel the relaxation. You're at home.

The Orchard & the Garden: A garden enclosed by hedges, an orchard where our chickens roam freely, with a stilt house, a pétanque court, and 360-degree views of the Hesbignonne countryside. According to our guests, the sunsets over the wheat fields are “the highlight of the show.”

Swimming pool (May to September): Heated and secured by a solar panel and a barrier. This is our guests' favorite place for a relaxing time.

The Pizza Experience: Looking for an unforgettable night? Ask us for access to the traditional bread oven to host your own wood-fired “pizza night” on the covered terrace. Access to the covered terrace and bread oven is extra charge.

Strategic location: 5 minutes from the E411, you are 20 minutes from Namur, 10 minutes from Louvain-la-Neuve, and 30 minutes from Brussels. The countryside, without the isolation.

Other things to note
Travel light, we've got everything covered.

Chef's Kitchen: Don't worry, you won't run out of pots and pans. The kitchen is very well equipped and stocked to feed 15 people.

Kids' corner: High chairs, cribs, changing mats… everything is available on-site upon request!

Exceptional barbecue: Enjoy our “OFYR” brazier/plancha. Much more than a barbecue, it's a convivial cooking experience around the fire. (We provide the wood; no need for charcoal.)

Entertainment: Board games for rainy evenings, books, and even a guitar for music lovers.

Note on tranquility: La Cense de Baudecet is a haven of peace. We happily welcome laughter and joy, but we prohibit parties. To preserve the magic of the place and maintain good relations with our neighbors, outdoor music is not allowed, and quiet is required after 10 p.m.

Where you’ll be

Gembloux, Wallonie, Belgium

The quiet of Hesbaye, plus the proximity.

Baudecet is a well-preserved hamlet where time seems to stand still. Here, there are no passersby—just the sound of the wind in the wheat fields and birdsong when you wake up. This is the perfect place to completely unwind, to go for walks or bike rides starting from the cottage, or simply to admire the sunset over the unobstructed horizon.

Everything at your fingertips:
Although you are surrounded by nature, the convenience is unbeatable. In less than 5 minutes (2 km), you can reach the center of Gembloux using:

Amenities: Department stores (open on Sundays!), artisanal bakeries, and pharmacies.

Transport: Gembloux train station (direct connections to Brussels and Namur).

Dining: Excellent local spots, from cozy little bistros to renowned restaurants.

Strategic access:
Located on the border between Walloon Brabant and the province of Namur, we are:

8 minutes from Louvain-la-Neuve (Hergé Museum, Esplanade).

15 minutes from Namur and its Citadel.

25 minutes from Brussels and Charleroi Airport.

This is the perfect base: you can enjoy the tranquility of the countryside at night, while being just a few minutes from the city's vibrant energy and business centers during the day.

My work: lacensedebaudecet. be
Speaks Dutch, English, and French
As a mother of 3, I am thrilled to say that my dearest dream has finally come true with my husband. We have completed our renovation project of an old farm in La Cense de Baudecet*. *Cense means a small farm and Baudecet is the name of the waterway that gave its name to the hamlet) We are passionate about old bricks, about creating a place where everyone can feel comfortable and good about themselves. The friendliness and warm welcome that emerge from this place are paramount for us. We want everyone to feel at home. Our commitment to Zero Waste is increasingly present in our way of life. Cultivating our permaculture garden and taking care of our animals are an integral part of this process. We are proud to be able to share this way of life with others.
