Under the motto "Good arrangements make good friends".

In aux4saules you do not only have your room, during your stay you can also enjoy the salon and the breakfast room with a small kitchen, the terrace, and the courtyard, so you have plenty of space. We also have books and board games for you.

How many people can aux4saules accommodate?

8+4 There are 4 double rooms. In two of these rooms, there is a sofa bed that can be converted for the children (for an extra charge) in the same room as the parents.
The beds in the rooms Scala, Xel, and Jérôme can be made into single beds (the beds are made and towels are also provided).

When can we access the rooms?

On the day of arrival, you can check-in between 2 pm and 9 pm.
We are a B&B and not a hotel in attendance 24/7; we live on a farm. Can you please tell us, at least a day in advance, your approximate time of arrival, so we can update our schedule accordingly.

Slippers

We ask our guests not to wear shoes inside the establishment. When you enter you used to find homemade slippers (made by Anke's mom) as well as sneakers.
Because of the Covid-19 measures we now ask you to bring your own slippers or decide to walk on your socks or barefoot. And in addition, you will feel "like at home"!
We prefer that you will leave your outer shoes in the hallway.

Breakfast

We serve a sustainable and healthy breakfast. Take the time to start your day well.
Breakfast is served between 08h00 and 10h00.

Honesty bar

Various drinks (soft drinks, beer and wine) and some crisps are available in the common fridge at democratic prices. We leave the top shelf free for your food. Coffee and tea are available free of charge.

We practice the ‘Honesty Bar’ principle. Right, we rely on your honesty when you serve yourself and your partner a drink at our bar.
During your stay, you write down what you consume and the settlement only takes place when you leave.

Can we use the kitchenette ourself?

In the morning we use the kitchen, afterwards this space is free and you can prepare a small snack in the afternoon or evening in the kitchenette or order food from a caterer. The kitchenette is equipped with common kitchen equipment, incl. Combine microwave oven. Also, spices such as pepper and salt etc., oil, vinegar, sugar are at your disposal.
Clearing the used space yourself is the message. In this way the other guests do not experience any additional nuisance and we can provide breakfast in the morning.

I like to drink a cup of tea before I go to sleep.

No problem! You can find everything you need in the guest kitchen.

Is WiFi provided?

Yes, in the guest rooms and in the common room you have access to WiFi. There is also a LAN connection in each room.

Are dogs allowed?

Our dogs Roza and Marieke are outside your companion on the courtyard. They will help you discover all corners of the property. They don't enter the guesthouse.
Assistance dogs – for example, for the blind –are always welcome. Please let us know in advance.

Is smoking allowed?

The entire house is non-smoking, including all rooms. You can smoke in the courtyard but, needless to say, not in the stables.

Can I leave my motorcycle or bike in a safe place?

Yes, your (motor)bike can be parked in the inner courtyard or in the "sheep barn" next to our horse-drawn carriage.

The protection of nature is important to me.

It is important for us too;
Aux4saules respects the environmental legislation and applicable rules in Wallonia, but we wanted to take it a step further.
We decided to comply with the requirements and criteria established as part of the international “Green Key” eco-label.

* The house is very well insulated.
* We heat the entire house in an ecologically responsible way with a high-efficiency pellet-central heating stove.
* On the roof of the barn are solar panels for our electricity.
* We use LED lamps for lighting.
* The sanitary hot water is produced from solar energy.
   On a sunny day in the mid-season, there is even enough hot water from the solar energy to warm up in the evening via the radiators.
* The towels are replaced after the third night, except on request. After all, a lot of water is required for washing linen, together with detergents.
* We use products from Ecover
* In the house we deliberately left the holes in the facing brick, the "Pierre d'Avoine", so that the house sparrows can continue to live here.
   In the stables we have renovates arround the swallows' nests. The swallows return every year to even expand the existing nests.
   The horse stables are an ideal place for all the building material for their nest.
* We have rainwater wells for the toilets, and also for watering the garden.
* We have our own individual water purification system for our wastewater: all the used water is purified as it leaves our farm.
* The garden is maintained exclusively by using green products.
) The watering of the garden is done with reclaimed rainwater, and only in the evening or early in the morning.
This way we try to be economical with energy and consumable products.

What can I do to be climate-friendly?

Behave like a good family man. Some examples :
* turn off the heating when you open the windows
* turn off the light when you leave the room
* in the breakfast room you can easily sort your waste
In this way we each contribute our little bit.
