Noble charm at Expoel Castle
In Expoelstraat, less than five minutes from the B&B, you will find Expoel Castle: a stately building in brick and sandstone style with elements dating back to the thirteenth century. The castle is set in the middle of a charming English park with centuries-old trees, moats, ponds and rolling grounds. Romance galore.
Hail Mary to the pious tree
The devout tree or chapel tree is a phenomenon unique to our region. At the corner of Expoelstraat and Bosstraat, you will find a typical example accompanied by a fairy-tale bench.
Relax on the banks of the Senne
Enjoy the silence and the birdsong along the babbling waters of the Senne. Because the river is subject to the tides, its banks form a rare biotope where waders such as the dunlin and green sandpiper search for food. If you look up, you might spot a bluethroat, reed bunting, reed warbler, garden warbler or song thrush.
Water sports on the Eglegem pond
The Eglegem pond – or “the Hombeek well”, as the locals call it – is a perfect setting for a lovely walk all year round. It is especially pleasant in summer, with anglers at the edge of the pond and sailors and windsurfers on the water. Swimming is not allowed, but you can dip your feet in the water.
