Spend the night inside a Trojan horse.

La Balade des Gnomes

A wooden horse rises from the Belgian Ardennes, and this time you are invited inside. La Balade des Gnomes makes its rooms into handcrafted little worlds.

The experience

What makes this stay different?

The Trojan Horse is one of a collection inspired by fairy tales, natural materials and imagination. Choose a particular room for its atmosphere, rather than expecting every stay here to look alike. The property includes breakfast, served in your room.

Who would enjoy it?

Couples, imaginative travellers and anyone who wants the room itself to be the adventure.

Choose your room with care.

Book Le Cheval de Troie specifically for the horse experience. Arrival windows vary by day. Ask about steps and room layout; the neighbouring restaurant is separately operated.

Stay a little longer.

Combine the stay with Durbuy’s old streets and time outdoors in the Ardennes.
