About this holiday home

With eight bedrooms, four bathrooms, two cosy living rooms, a large kitchen, a games room, a conservatory, and a spacious garden, this spacious villa, suitable for 24 people, offers every comfort for an unforgettable stay. Villa Lactea underwent extensive renovations between 2020 and 2023, focusing on sustainability and circular construction and reusing as many materials as possible. From reused wooden floors and doors to furniture with a history, you'll find sustainable details everywhere.

Villa Lactea is located in quiet, natural surroundings in Schilde. Nearby, you will find several beautiful mountain bike routes and hiking trails through vast forests and along green fields. A short drive away is the lovely city of Antwerp, with historic sights, fascinating museums, and a lively atmosphere featuring many restaurants and shops.

We hebben met onze familie van 11 een topweekend gehad in de villa! We werden ontvangen door Henk, die vriendelijk en correct overkwam. De ruimte was perfect om samen te zijn, maar ook om ieder zijn eigen ding te doen in een andere ruimte. Heerlijke ruime keuken, mooie overdekte buitenruimte voor bbq met pingpongtafel. Mooie omgeving om te wandelen. Vervoer naar Antwerpen moet per uber (oid). Ophalen was lastig, lange wachttijd en de villa kon niet worden gevonden door de chauffeurs. Wij reden wel probleemloos naar de villa met Googlemaps.

in 1 woord een fantastische accommodatie (villa), wij waren met een grote groep (24 man) en hebben het geweldig naar ons zin gehad. De ruimtes zijn allemaal groot en schoon, badkamers en toiletten zijn er meer dan voldoende en de grote open leefkeuken nodigt uit om heerlijk te koken. Vlak onder de rook van Antwerpen en alle uitvalswegen zijn snel en goed bereikbaar. Wij komen graag nog een keertje terug!

Tip from the homeowner

Villa Lactea was once called simply Hoeve De Haar. She was built in 1941. Between 2020 and 2023, she was extensively rebuilt and has been a holiday home since 2024. During the renovation, we tried to reuse as many materials as possible to make it something beautiful. Our approach was fairly fanatical, but here and there we made compromises for the sake of price or to keep the layout flexible for future generations. Via illustrations scattered around the house, you can discover the stories of all the building materials

Tip from the expert

A local artist, "Haviks Nest", is showing several of his works at Villa Lactea. These works are for sale! The artist's contact details can be found at the villa
