After a long winter, Easter often feels like the first real breath of fresh air — a time to step outside, feel the warmth of the sun’s first gentle rays on your skin, and share joyful moments with your loved ones. It's the perfect opportunity to plan an Easter family getaway and create lasting memories in the heart of nature.

The Nutchel Cosy Cabins are nestled in the peaceful forests of the Ardennes and Alsace. Designed for up to six guests, they provide the perfect setting to slow down and reconnect as a family.

Why Easter is the Perfect Time for a Family Getaway?

Spring is in the air! Crocuses and daffodils are blooming, the days are stretching longer, and the nature is slowly waking up after its winter sleep. Easter sits at this beautiful seasonal turning point, making it the ideal moment to pause and recharge with your family.

With no tight schedules or screen time to worry about, you can take advantage of the Easter break to be fully present with the people who matter most. This is what an Easter family getaway at Nutchel is all about.

Many families return year after year for this exact reason: it’s not just a holiday, it’s a meaningful break — simple, slow, and real.

What makes a Nutchel Cabin stay so special?

Nutchel isn’t just another holiday destination — it’s an experience rooted in simplicity, authenticity, and nature. Our Forest Villages in Les Ardennes (Belgium) and Alsace (France) offer a unique opportunity to:

📵 Disconnect from the digital world and reconnect with each other

🌲 Embrace the outdoors, without sacrificing comfort

Our Cosy Cabins can accommodate up to six people and are designed with couples, families and friends in mind. Each one is equipped with a simple kitchen, a bright living area, comfortable beds, a hot shower bathroom and a covered terrace — perfect for your Easter getaway.

Picture this: you wake up to the gentle sound of birdsong, with the soft morning light filtering through the trees. You enjoy a slow breakfast made of local delights, breathing in the fresh forest air, surrounded by the peaceful silence of nature.

Then, the day is yours to shape. Will you wander through golden meadows of daffodils on a family hike? Craft something beautiful by the fire with your kids? Or finally dive into that book that you've been promising yourself to read for weeks?

As the sun begins to set, you sip on a glass of Crémant d’Alsace or a cold Belgian beer from a nearby microbrewery — on your wooden terrace, while your children build a hut among the trees nearby.

To end the day on a delicious note, enjoy one of our lovingly prepared meal baskets: a traditional raclette or a forest-style barbecue, perfect for sharing.

Throughout your stay, you’ll find joy in life’s simple pleasures: cooking together, playing board games by candlelight, and watching your children draw by the window as birds and squirrels play outside. It's a slower, richer kind of life — one that leaves room for connection, laughter, and memories that will stay with you long after you return home.

Fun Activities for Your Easter Family Getaway
