Just 45 minutes from Brussels National Airport, this former Cistercian abbey offers countryside calm with a stately twist. Its historic brick quadrangle opens onto peaceful gardens and open skies – an inspiring backdrop for gatherings that want both scale and soul.

Inside, the venue has 110 bedrooms, ideal for immersive, multi-day retreats. At the centre of the estate is the striking Grange Dîmière – a 760 m² barn with a 21-metre-high wooden ceiling that can host up to 350 guests for dinner or 500 for a standing reception.

There are also 30 naturally lit meeting rooms, ranging from cosy boardrooms for 2 to larger spaces that hold up to 120. Breakout areas, project zones and team corners are dotted throughout, giving teams room to work, wander and switch gears.

Step outside and you’ll find riverside lawns, forest trails and long courtyard walkways – perfect for walking meetings, fresh-air pauses or informal chats. On-site leisure includes a gym, spa, bikes and a dedicated host team who’ll help tailor your stay.

Activities on offer include wine tasting, yoga sessions, Vespa rides through the countryside, or the venue’s signature 2CV rally – a fun, team-based road adventure in classic French cars.

Meals are shared around long tables, with local dishes cooked on-site by the in-house chef. Whether it's coffee in the cloisters or late-night wine in the garden, every moment here is designed to bring people together.
