"Eigentijdserf is a perfect location in the Brabantse Kempen!

For a few years now I have been bringing my groups to Eigentijdserf with great pleasure — a beautiful, inspiring location. Always a warm welcome; the hospitable and friendly staff think along with you and almost anything is possible to make sure the guests are happy — no request is too much. Delicious, varied meals are served, and if there's something you don't like or you're on a special diet, a good alternative is offered right away. In the many coffee corners you can help yourself to coffee and tea, day and night. There are good bedrooms with private bathrooms. The centre is set in beautiful surroundings — straight from the centre you walk right into the woods. On the grounds there is also a classic labyrinth and a sensory trail that can be walked barefoot, which is a special experience. Afterwards there's water to rinse your feet and towels to dry them. Wonderful, isn't it! There are various atmospheric rooms, and the interior of the centre follows a nature theme, which fits the surroundings perfectly. You feel at ease here straight away, creating a very relaxed atmosphere — which is why you'll definitely come back again." - Petra Lemans
