The Farm sits high on the southern slope of the Kemmelberg, West Flanders’ highest hill, with far-reaching views across fields and villages towards France. Paths begin at the gate, woodland wraps around the upper slopes and vineyards occupy the sheltered ground below.

Some days are best spent without leaving the estate. Others begin on foot or by bicycle, follow the small roads into French Flanders, or go as far as Lille for lunch. Stay a little longer and you need not choose too quickly. After booking, we share a selective guide to walks, vineyards and addresses we genuinely like — and can shape more personal suggestions around your group.

Our discovery guide offers a first look beyond the gate: hillside villages, gardens, vineyards, places of remembrance and days in Lille or Bruges. After booking, we share more detailed addresses and personal suggestions to help you make the region your own.
