Holiday rentals in Wallonia
To begin exploring this southern region of Belgium, renting a holiday house in Wallonia is perhaps the best way to explore its rolling countryside, quaint villages and ancient historical sites. Wallonia can be considered one of Europe’s well-kept secrets. After many years of Spanish and French rule, Wallonia now belongs to Belgium, which today is still predominantly French speaking, but has a surprisingly Latin feel; relaxed, hospitable and friendly. Locals are affectionately known as Walloons, a term originating from Roman times. These days Walloons are known for being laid-back and enjoy nothing more than spending hours around a good meal with nice and friendly company. Renting a holiday house in Wallonia will not go without a taste of gourmet food. Comparable to its neighbouring French cuisine, Wallonia can offer quality food in sizeable portions without the need to visit a Michelin star rated restaurant. From top-quality meats to beautiful cheeses, fruit tarts and who can forget the infamous Belgian chocolates. A stay in a holiday house in Wallonia is a food lover’s paradise, all washed down with world-class beers. Walloons enjoy a good festival, with regular carnivals to be enjoyed.
