Holiday homes for 6 people in Belgium

Chalet, bungalow or holiday home: what suits 6 people?

A **chalet** in the Ardennes is the classic choice: timber construction, a crackling open fire, often with a jacuzzi on the terrace. Ideal for autumn and winter. A **bungalow** is single-storey and therefore practical for groups with older family members or young children: no stairs, everything on one level. A **country house or gîte** in the Flemish Ardennes offers more character (old beams, a stove, a large garden), perfect for summer holidays. **Apartments on the coast** for six are scarcer but they exist: look for duplex or penthouse types with 3 bedrooms in Ostend, Knokke or Blankenberge.

What makes a home for 6 people stand out?

A good holiday home for six has at least three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a kitchen that can cope. The rooms should not be too small: with six people indoors, nobody wants to feel they are tripping over each other. A large living room or open-plan living space is a must, as is a generous outdoor area for the evenings. In chalets and bungalows in the Ardennes this is standard; with coastal apartments you need to look more critically at the floor area.

Popular destinations for a group of 6

The Flemish Ardennes are popular with Belgian families and groups of friends who prefer to stay a little closer to home. Rolling landscapes, local breweries and quiet cycling routes. In the Ardennes you will find larger homes with more nature around them. On the coast there are also more spacious houses for six, although they book up quickly in high season.
