Anouk and Hans, Belgium

Posted on October 3, 2013

Tired after a long day of travel, we were glad to be warmly welcomed into the cosiness of your place. After a hot shower, we were treated to a piece of cheesecake & a glass of red wine. We indulged, meanwhile warming our bodies at the fireplace – wood crackling peacefully. Your cats have the best life. After some reading (your house is bursting with books!) and enjoying some wonderful storytelling, performed by your husband, we were ready for bed. We slept like angels and woke up to a beautiful sunny day. A lazy breakfast – granola, yogurt, fresh fruit, homemade bread, jam, eggs, smoked salmon, coffee – was served in a cosy corner in the living room, near the window, with lovely views of Scotland’s wild scenery. We left your place with renewed energy, blissful. Thank you so much.

We’ll be back one day, hopefully for a longer stay, in the cottage. And maybe, we can do some baking together, in your kitchen – which really had some magical feel about it.

Sending you lots of love (and sunshine!).
