The house

Why “Het Demerhuys”

The Demer rises in the Limburg Kempen and winds on through Hasselt into the country — less than ten minutes from here. We named this house after that river, using the old spelling “huys” still found on the façade stones of historic Flemish houses.

“We live nearby — if anything comes up, someone is there quickly.”

“Highly recommended! A really beautiful place to stay the night, 5-star comfort for sure! Nicely furnished rooms, a proper kitchen and plenty of room for everyone (we were 6 + 2 children). The information folder was also really handy, with all sorts of tips on activities, restaurants etc! On top of that, Dennis was very friendly and easy to reach by message. In short: the ideal place to book a fun weekend and visit Bokrijk, Genk and the nature park.”
