Wonderful stay in Belgium countryside

We stayed for one week with my husband and 2 children. The property is located in a village about `15 minutes northeast of Leuven, a city about 30 minutes from Brussels. It is located on a farm, quiet, green, spacious, very nice to come back to after a long day of sightseeing. The apartment is furnished with 2 king sized beds (I've been staying at self-catering for 10 years and this is the first time I've had not one but 2 king sized beds) with excellant mattresses and linens. Well-equipped kitchen, very clean and well kept up.
The owner Annabel is a warm and helpful person and was available whenever we needed here with help and suggestions. She and her family live on site.
This is one of the nicest self-catering locations that I have ever stayed at. The only downside is that if you are heading west to Brussels or north to Antwerpen, Brugge, etc. you have to go around Brussels which has horrible traffic jams during rush hour. Either get an early start(0700) to avoid them or take the train. Also, the bedrooms are located on an upstairs balcony which is open to the ground floor- privacy is somewhat limited.
