Top choice in Wallonia
In Chimay's heart, this delightful place offers charming B&B in a turreted, wisteria-draped building full of antiques and flamboyant furnishings. Each room has a very distinct character (from the chambre Oiseaux with its gilt-framed bird prints and marble bath to the elegant chambre suite Coton with brass bed, vintage wallpaper and antique wooden furniture).
It’s directly behind the church, with a tiny flower-decked front terrace.
