't Staaksken – Assenede
A Flemish cottage in the heart of the Meetjesland Creek area
Where time stands still……………
The willow-lined canals, lush green pastures and extensive soft, sandy dunes of Flanders need no introduction ; their beauty has been captured for centuries by some of the world's greatest artists. The Meetjesland, however is known only to a discerning few, yet it has much to offer anyone seeking peace and quiet.
Its one of those rare corners of Western Europe where time has virtually stood still and man has barely changed the face of nature.
Today its a land of creeks and polders, tall fields, « sleeping » dikes and old smugglers routes in the north and woodlands in the south which contain beautiful castles and castle farms.
The region is ideal for cycling, walking, relaxing and fishing and of course to discover the historical towns of Ghent , Hulst ( NL) 17 km - Bruges, Antwerp, Damme, Middelburg (NL) 40 km - Brussels, Oudenaarde 65 km
The Dutch North-sea Coast of Breskens, Knokke and Vlissingen is a 30 minute drive.
The NON SMOKING charming Holiday Cottage ' T Staaksken ( 220 m2) is situated atop an old dike, 2 kilometers from the gastronomic village of Assenede. The village is one of the oldest villages in Flanders en enjoys the distinction of having many restaurants of international repute
The little Dutch historical town Sas van Gent with his old harbour is only 1 km away.

Hello Margaret and Jan,
We had a great trip home and it was nice to get back to our lives here. Not that we did not enjoy your country, but it is always good to arrive home again.
Mom had such a great time there, as did Candee and I.
Thanks again for your hospitality; you have a beautiful country and we certainly hope to get back again.
Take care and perhaps we will see you here some day!
A big hugh

Hebben de kerstperiode in de romantische vakantiewoning 't Staaksken doorgebracht - met enkele woorden gezegd fantastisch , zeer groot comfort en zeer mooi ingerichte woning, vriendelijke huiselijk onthaal met koffie, gebak, een lekkere fles champagne voor kerstavond ...en kerst cadeau onder de boom , woorden tekort.
En het panoramisch uitzicht vanuit de zitkamer naar de tuin en omliggende velden is schitterende.
Komen zeker terug.
