the best cabins in the Ardennes

1. Cabanes du Vichaux

Whether you're a couple or a family, Johann welcomes you to enjoy an unforgettable experience in the French Ardennes, and more specifically in Tournavaux, where you can stay in the heart of nature.

Just a stone's throw from the Semoy river and the Transemoysienne tourist route, his cabins will bring you relaxation, calm and rejuvenation.

3. Cabane & Vallée at Haulmé

The location of these cabins is worth a special trip in itself: they overlook the magnificent Semoy valley. With no superfluous details or ostentatious luxury fittings, the "Lalégende" and "A l’orée" cabins are clad in unprocessed timber, to respect the environment. To take a shower, you have to cross the river in a boat: this is the real log-cabin lifestyle!

5. Kota des Lapinous at Montgon

This pair of Finnish kotas plunge guests into the scents of Nordic essences. And what a pleasure it is to cycle through the surrounding countryside featuring the pre-Ardennes ridges (cycle hire available on request), then to have a sauna afterwards!

7. Cabane les 4 amis

This cabin's construction on piloti (stilts) give it added height: from the terrace the views of the countryside around Lierneux encourage guests to immerse themselves in the cabin's isolation. A magnificent cabin that's ideal for families: children will adore crawling through a wooden tunnel to their bedroom!

9. Cabanes de Rensiwez

They blend into the landscape on a meander of the River Ourthe and have everything you need for a stay of a few days: a kitchenette, a wood-burning stove and even a hot tub or sauna for some of them. They are dream cabins that we have all seen or read about in Nordic adventures.

11. Goutte d’eau at Val d’Aisne

This cabin is unique and unusual: an enormous suspended tent designed by Dré Wapenaar. It's 4m tall and 2.75m in diameter. Guests slide inside with their sleeping bags. It forms part of the Val d’Aisne campsite, located on the bank of one of the most beautiful rivers in the Ardennes, and close to the Aisne tourist tramway.

13. Cabins at Le Moulin de Lisogne

In the Haute-Leffe valley, the road winds past limestone meadows and the countryside. It continues along the river bank to the former Lisogne water mill, in whose large garden is a tree containing this cabin, amid nests of birds and squirrels. It has comfortable beds, heating and a private bathroom: now you are ready for a night in the trees!

15. La Case de l'Oncle Henri

In the heart of the Chimay massif and close to the French Ardennes, you will find a beautiful cabin perched 6 metres high. In a green environment, an old oak tree welcomes you for an extraordinary stay. This is the kind of cabin we all dreamed of as children (and perhaps still do). At La Case de l'Oncle Henri, go from dream to reality!
