At the back of our very large garden there is enough space to spend the night while enjoying the peace and nature. You sleep next to the horses in the middle of the green. This is the ideal place to completely withdraw and come to yourself or to enjoy each other in peace. The horses will keep you company.
The view of the animals gives you the chance to observe them closely and enjoy the movements within the herd. These animals are so authentic and pure. This teaches you to enjoy the little things in life. Having a nice chat around the campfire about the experiences of the day, about what the horses had to tell us, makes you realize how much these animals can still teach us.
If desired, you are responsible for their care.
The horses are also used during coaching sessions where they give you more insight into who you are. They show you what you need at this moment in your life to break through certain patterns and make the right choices. They can also reveal dynamics within a family or group.
You can also experience beautiful walks and bike rides in the beautiful Hageland. If you cross the street, you walk straight into the Demer Valley to get lost in the beautiful nature for hours.
We live on the mountain bike trail. So you leave directly on the gravel into the Demerbroeken. My husband has everything you need to tinker with your bike: Bike Wash, compressor, and knowledge of bicycle mechanics. Your bike is safe and dry here under the shed or in the garage.
Other fun activities nearby:
- Sail down the Demer (full or half day) from Aarschot or Scherpenheuvel
- Walking in the Merode (Averbode Abbey)
- Visit Horst Castle (Castle of the Red Knight)
- Multi-day hiking trails to nearby bivouac sites (Rillaar, Walenbos).
The pleasant city of Aarschot is also nearby. You can go there for cultural trips, swimming parties, delicious dinners, cinema, fun shopping, etc.

We are a family with two daughters, 1 dog, 2 cats, 6 chickens and 4 horses. We recently moved from Antwerp to Betekom because we were looking for more peace, space, soil, grounding, biodiversity, slowing down and of course also room for the horses. In this place we can cherish our love for mother earth.
We are working towards being able to live as self-sufficiently as possible in the long term.
We do not want to keep this place to ourselves but would like to share it with others. Then feel completely welcome!
