After rain (or rather storm) comes sunshine (or cloudy days 🙈😉) 👏👏

After 11 long days, our electricity is finally restored and we are happy to say that we are OPEN for business again and can’t wait to welcome everyone back. 🌺

A big thank you to the municipality and all the hardworking people who worked tirelessly to clean up our town, restore electricity, and fix all the damage after the big storm.
Your efforts are truly appreciated 🙏

And of course, thank you to our amazing staff for all the hard work and dedication to get everything up and running again after this challenging time.

We are grateful, excited, and ready to serve you again.
See you soon 🌺

Due to the recent storm, we are unfortunately still without electricity and unable to operate. It now seems unlikely that power will be restored before the end of the week, so we have extended our closure a little longer…

We are hoping to reopen on Friday the 22nd, with the power back on and everything ready to welcome you again.

Thank you so much for your patience, understanding, and continued support during this difficult time. 💛

After the devastating storm on Monday, we are unfortunately still without power at La Belle and unable to operate.
We have been informed that the earliest the power may be restored is Sunday.

We have therefore decided to close until then and take a short part of our winter leave a little earlier than planned.

We hope to be back on Monday morning, fully powered and ready to welcome you again 🙏
Thank you for all the support and understanding during this difficult week.

On Monday morning, a very severe storm hit our town, with winds reaching up to 127km/h and causing widespread damage throughout the area. Trees and large branches came down everywhere, and many people have been affected.

We were incredibly fortunate that our building and deck was spared from major damage. Our garden, however, took quite a knock, with several large trees and branches falling. After three days of hard work and cleanup, things are finally starting to look more or less back to normal again 🙏

Unfortunately, we are still without electricity since Monday, and because of this we are not yet able to reopen.

We would like to sincerely thank everyone for the messages, support, and kindness during this time. We are also very grateful to the municipality and all the teams working tirelessly to restore power and assist the community. Also a big thank you to our staff, who we can always count on 💪🏻

We are hopeful that by Friday everything will be up and running again, and we look forward to welcoming everyone back soon. ❤️

Autumn has a way of slowing the world down. 🍂

Peaceful mornings, the sound of the river gently running, and trees dressed in their finest colours. A season to breathe deeper, move slower, and appreciate the quiet beauty all around us.

Nature’s reminder that change can be beautiful. 🍁

Join us today and soak up the autumn magic. 🍂
