After a period during which I chose to take care of my health, I am happy to announce that Le Jardin des Secrets is gently reopening its doors, in a lighter way… yet still with the same heart.

I am currently also in training as part of a professional transition focused on coaching, eco-rituals, ceremonies and rituals, which naturally influences the rhythm of the welcome.

🛏️ Rooms

Three rooms are now available again:

• Weekends (Friday and Saturday)

  → minimum stay of two nights

• During school holidays

• Weekdays, upon request, depending on my availability and training schedule

For any specific request, please feel free to contact me directly.

☕ Breakfast & arrangements

Rates are now offered excluding breakfast.

The kitchen remains at your disposal, allowing everyone to organize themselves freely.

I will gladly recommend lovely nearby places for breakfast, including the Namur casino or Dumont pastry shop.

If I am present and available, breakfast at Le Jardin des Secrets may be arranged, by reservation only.

🌿 Stays & duration

Rooms can be rented for:

• a few nights

• longer stays (week, fortnight, month…)

Reduced rates are available depending on the length of stay.

Access to the garden, terrace and common areas remains unchanged.

🌸 A place in transition

Le Jardin des Secrets is entering a phase of transition.

An offer to purchase has been accepted, and the hosting activity should continue until the end of November 2026.

For those who wish to (re)discover the place in this softer and more refined version, it will be a pleasure to welcome you.

Le Jardin des Secrets continues, differently… yet always with the same soul.

Presentation

Secrets and gardens

Many stories have a tale to be told: Gardens are a place of secrets. They think and whisper without causing any disturbance in their surroundings.

Maybe it is the gold buried deep beneath, down there, near the old coach house…
Maybe. The secrets are concealed under the trees, on a bench in a daydream, a kiss, a conversation, leaving memories and poetry in the air of the branches.
Memories have the distinction of never being linked to the places where the gardens are invisible fortresses. They sometimes offer this silent inspiration for some worms, a sculpture, a painting, some contemplation.

The secrets have their gardens, as not everything can be made, created, or done anywhere. Space separates places by its mind. Some spaces, like some lights, have their source of genius. The spirit of the place makes you feel. It invites. It breathes. It wraps and soothes. It makes you smile with ease and charges the relation of time. Space expands, but the stars approach.

We stroll in the gardens, we rest ourselves, we reconnect with the elements, we discuss and we reflect. The universe is so vast, yet keeps such a low profile, and for that, we plant, trim and gather the mysteries of life. Each season transforms the garden and passes the secrets onto the next.

"Le Jardin des Secrets" is a temple of peace where you are happy to return as another person.

No dogs allowed

Unfortunately, your pets will not be able to accompany you to the Garden of Secrets, for several reasons:

1. There are already 3 animals here, one of which has become very dominant in recent months and could be aggressive towards one of his fellow creatures.

2. Some customers are allergic, it is thereforedits in room for this reason. Mes animaux ne pouvant monter dans les étages.

3. The fact that they can bark when guests come and go.

4. The disrespect of certain customers who have not respected certain essential rules.

Thank you for your understanding.
