Some info has been automatically translated.
Les Hiboux, located 40 km from the Belgian border in the French Ardennes (08), offers you a beautiful view of the forest of Rocquigny and the meadows.
As the only guests on the property, you can dream away in the hanging chair, enjoy the hammock in silence, or read a book on one of the many seats on the property. The many doors and windows ensure optimal natural light from sunrise to sunset.
The space
Our site is 2500 m2 of which 700 m2 is at your disposal.
In front of your cottage, you have a private garden of 400m2 with a hanging chair, hammock, a seat under the weeping willow and in front of your cottage. From these places, you can enjoy the wide eastern view over the meadows and the forest of Roquigny.
Behind the cottage is a garden of 300 m2 where there is also a garden seat and a high swing in the tree.
Just like in the cottage, there is a lot of light and space to experience everywhere, but also shaded spots under the trees.
Behind our own vacation home, we have a private garden where we stay when we have guests, so you have all the privacy and can enjoy the peace and space. We basically keep our dogs in our private garden, unless you also like to meet these social dogs.
If you have a dog, it is also very welcome. We have the entire site fenced with a 1.5 meter high fence so that our dogs do not escape.
We can easily keep your dog and our dogs separate if necessary or if you wish. We can also place an extra fence so that your dog can only stay with you in your private garden and you always have the dog in mind.

Neighborhood highlights
The best part here is the special wide view. Those who like hiking or cycling are in the right place. Although most people have the biggest plans upon arrival to explore the area and/or go on a city trip, we see most guests relaxing at their cottage for the first days to enjoy the tranquility. With a nice book, a nice drink or bite, and occasionally a look over the valley, this simple relaxation is a breath of fresh air for many. Laze like a god or goddess in France!
When you want to get away, there are all kinds of possibilities. For example, there is the fine town of Charleville-Mézieres, Reims with its impressive cathedral (with the fameuse smiling angel) and champagne caves, the chate of Sedan, or the star-shaped fortress town of Rocroi. Closer to the neighborhood, you can follow the fortified church and buildings route, take a cooling dive in Lake Lac de Vieille Forges, or discover one of the many hiking or cycling routes (please take into account the many descents and climbs of the roads, or if necessary, bring your own eBike). During the summer, there are also brocantes or vide greniers nearby every weekend, where you can not only buy fun things, but also explore surrounding villages and taste the authentic atmosphere of the countryside while enjoying a glass of cider and the local specialty, paté and croûte!

Lives in Rocquigny, France
Hi
My name is Remko van Drongelen. I'm an artist and writer. Together with my husband theater maker Arjen Gerritsen and our sweet dogs Sophie and Boris, we are happy to welcome you at our cottage Les Hiboux
In 2016, we bought a house with outbuildings here in the French Ardennes to be able to work on our dreams in peace and space in an inspiring environment. At a relaxed pace, we have partly transformed one of those outbuildings into a beautiful cottage. Ideal for people who want to enjoy an unobstructed view over the rolling scenery and the beauty of nature. You are welcome to come and enjoy this too!
