Immerse yourself in nature and discover its soothing power. Waking up to the rising sun, the song of birds and the smell of awakening greenery. Find yourself bathing in a source of energy and inspiration. Breathe, be amazed and enjoy our secret locations.
With minimal impact on the earth and maximum comfort you will experience a new ecological revolution. Experience live off-grid cabins, live life self-sufficient and in total harmony with nature. Far from the world, yet close to home.
Choose to travel slow and lighten your pace. No stress of choice, tight planning or running back and forth, but slowing down and consciously reflecting on the splendor of your surroundings. Enjoy 'the little things' with a fresh look and find yourself truely relaxing.
Spread over various secret nature locations in Belgium, you will find our Slow Cabins for two or four people. On the inside, an oasis of minimalism and simplicity. Outside, the gigantic spectacle of nature. Absolute and natural beauty in interior, design and surroundings.
In our cosy, off-grid, cabins you can escape your worries, hectic life and the debilitating everyday stress. You will not only find silence and beauty here, but also the essence of what it is really about: connection with yourself, your environment and those you care about most.
Our Slow Cabins are small wooden houses that are located in magnificent places in hidden nature. The locations are secret, but deliberately and carefully chosen to be less than two hours away from the major cities. Easily accessible by car and public transport, but completely disconnected from the world.
The cabins are minimalist and furnished with an eye for beauty, detail and comfort. They have everything you need and nothing you don’t. An ideal setting to connect sustainably, consciously and relaxed with each other and the environment.
In each cabin you will find an equipped kitchen, cozy sitting area and queen sized bed to enjoy optimal comfort. Thanks to the panoramic window next to the bed, you wake up every morning to the breathtaking art of nature. The bathroom has a Scandinavian dry toilet and a warm, circular shower. Outside there is a fire pti that can replace the warmth of the setting sun with a crackling campfire or a delicious barbecue.
Love for nature and the environment is at the basis of Slow Cabins. Our self-sufficient cabins are therefore ecologically designed and produced. Almost half of the production costs go to green, sustainable techniques and the choice for local production. For example, the sun takes care of the cabin’s energy production and the rain takes care of the water used for showering or the dishes. In this way we minimize waste flows and CO2 emissions. We opt for maximum comfort and enjoyment with a minimum impact on the environment.
Slow Cabins strives for a net green added value in which more guests lead to more nature. We plant a tree for every new booking and, together with our location partners, we invest in local nature conservation and landscape enrichment. You, by staying with us, are actively contributing to this as well. In this way we all work together towards a more beautiful, greener world. Different, slower and better.
Book your cabin at a moment of your choice, fill in your details and check your mailbox for the confirmation email.

Kiedyś ktoś mnie zapytał, czy jak już ruszymy z naszą miejscówką, dalej będziemy polecać i pokazywać inne klimatyczne miejsca ?
OCZYWIŚCIE że TAK ❤️❤️❤️
Robię to kilka, a nawet kilkanaście razy dziennie w prywatnych wiadomościach z Wami. Pięknych miejsc znam cała masę i uwielbiam się tymi adresami dzielić. A jeszcze bardziej cieszy mnie późniejszy uśmiech od właścicieli za polecenie ich 🤩
Najbardziej rozwalają mnie pytania o KONKURENCJĘ 🙈 „Bo przecież w waszym rejonie coraz więcej fajnych miejscówek się tworzy”….
No i super! Bardzo mnie to cieszy, że będziemy mieć fajnych sąsiadów ❤️
Do których nigdy nie będę podchodzić jak do konkurencji, a raczej jak do ziomków, z którymi możemy wymienić się wspólnymi doświadczeniami, podrzucić zapasową pościel w razie potrzeby, a nawet gości jak u nas miejsc zabraknie. Marzy mi się taka współpraca i już dzisiaj wiem, że dzięki naszej dotychczasowej działalności i dzięki temu, że poznaliśmy wielu cudownych właścicieli okolicznych miejscówek - taka akcja jest realna ❤️
A na zdjęciu arcyklimatyczna miejscówka nad samym jeziorem i jednocześnie całkiem blisko morza komorebi_cabins ❤️❤️❤️
Idealna na zimowy wypad, aby pochillować z książką przy kominku. Idealna na wiosenne ładowanie akumulatorów. Genialna na letni wypoczynek z dziećmi.
I najlepsza na jesienne wieczory z przyjaciółmi na tarasie oświetlonym milionem lampek ✨
komorebi_cabins jakby zabrakło pościeli, talerzy, czy tabletek do zmywarki - znacie nasz adres 😉❤️
A Ty? Lubisz konkurować ? Czy wolisz się przyjaźnić?

This Scandinavian style from slow_cabins is a great example of how less, is more!
Who's up for a trip to Belgium?

Throwback to the beginning of December when we went on an adventure to Belgium for a stay at one of the sustainable slow_cabins.
You’ll receive the coordinates, park your car there and then walk for around 15 minutes to arrive to your cabin surrounded by nothing more than nature (in the morning I saw 4 deer hopping around!).
The perfect place to go off grid - and it was only slightly more than an hour drive from Rotterdam!
This spot was first shared with PP-members who receive the latest spots, reports and more exclusively. Now it’s visible for everyone. See, and read, more on my site!

Alles gaat te vlug. Het is gewoon al bijna terug winter! Hoe zot is dat. Wie op de pauzeknop wil drukken, zit goed in slow_cabins. Even van de radar verdwijnen of offline genieten van de échte wereld. Met je lief, wat vrienden of je menage. Want de wereld draait ook zonder jou gewoon door. Take a break, je verdient het! #odierbaarbelgie #kleingeluk #levebelgië #staycation #logereninbelgie #opverkenning #microtoerisme #reisblog #versvoer #omdehoek #leplatpays #reizen #slapen #doen #ontdekken #wegvanplatgetredenpaden #nachtjeweg #gechecktengoedgekeurd #kleingeluk #bijzonderlogeren #weekendjeweg #vakantieineigenland #dichtbij
Time off for the always on 🖤
At Stolp we believe in disconnecting to reconnect with what's really important. That's why we teamed up with slow_cabins
Slow Cabins wants to have a positive impact on (wo)man and nature by creating unique experiences in secluded natural environments close to home with the focus on raising awareness and on rebuilding the local natural environment.
Different, slower and better.

Een geheime locatie. Ik blijf het een tof concept vinden. Wanneer je een cabin boekt bij slow_cabins weet je 1 ding zeker. Je gaat naar een fantastische plek om helemaal tot rust te komen. Ik bezocht 1 van de Slow Cabins een aantal jaar geleden. Nu zijn er een aantal nieuwe cabins bijgekomen die ik in maart mag bezoeken. Check voor nu even dit 》slow_cabins 🧡

Slow Cabins® are temporary eco houses that are completely self-sufficient when it comes to water and electricity provisions. They are situated in secret locations close to home and rose from the Slow (travel) movement, more about Slow Travel on our concept page. In a Slow Cabin there is no Internet as well, which means that you slow down and break free from the stress of everyday life.
Self-sufficient lodging is unique. Not only are you going back to basics, you also gain more respect for nature and the environment. You become acquainted with the slower pace of nature and learn to accept it as it is.
Upon your arrival, you are given a fully charged battery – charged by solar panels. In addition, you get a substantial water reservoir filled with filtered rainwater. At normal consumption levels, you can live completely self-sufficiently with ‘zero impact’ for several days (even during the winter months). So as your cabin’s battery discharges, yours recharges.
However substantial, your resources are not endless, during your self-sufficient stay, heightened awareness of how you use energy and water is thus essential. Throughout your stay, you can monitor your battery, as well as your rainwater levels, on a display in the Slow Cabin.
Being obligated to keep an eye out for your resource levels raises consciousness and promotes active awareness of your footprint during a your stay. A consciousness, many of our guest take home with them. Off-the-grid vacations are no longer a romantic dream – they’re an absolute reality! Read more on our Off-grid technology on our concept page
Our Slow Cabins® are set up at temporary locations, which we keep strictly confidential. Don’t worry, they are no further than 2 hours’ drive from the large central cities (Antwerp, Brussels, Ghent, Liège, Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Utrecht and The Hague). So, there is always one in your neck of the woods, pun intended :)!
When you make a reservation, you will receive all the relevant information on your Slow Cabin two weeks before departure. A brochure will tell you how to get there as well as information on activities in and around the cabin, from beautiful walks to cosy local eateries and other surprising slow activities.
Our Time for Family cabins are suitable for 4 persons, while our Time for Two cabins are suitable for up to 2 people
Our Time For Family cabins do offer the possibility to bring a baby / toddler. We can provide a baby cot on request. Please select this during your reservation under “extra services”.
Oh no, that is too bad! Contact us as soon as possible at info[at]slowcabins.com and we’ll look for a solution together.
Due to the logistical complexity of servicing the Slow Cabins®, it is not yet possible to reserve meals. However, in the cabins, you have access to an equipped kitchen with a small gas burner and a wood BBQ, make sure to pack your chef’s hat.
It is entirely up to you whether you bring food along (or prepare at home to heat up in the cabin), buy daily fresh ingredients in the local shops or to go to a restaurant in the neighbourhood.
In our brochures, which we send to you two weeks before your stay, you will find all kinds of delicious tips on where to buy fresh local produce and where to find the best restaurants.
Slow Cabins® are relatively small houses (<40 m2) which contain everything you need and nothing you don’t need.
Each Slow Cabin is equipped with a queen-sized bed (including linens), a bathroom with a warm shower and toilet, a wood-burning stove in the living room, a small, furnished kitchen with a refrigerator, a cooktop with two burners, flatware/silverware, cookware and utensils, a wood-burning barbecue (outdoor) with a grill plate and outdoor furniture. Everything you need to light the barbecue is at hand.
The most basic ingredients and supplies for the kitchen and bathroom, such as olive oil, salt and pepper, coffee and tea, soap and towels, are also present. Find a complete overview on everything that is present in the cabins on our Time for Two and Time for Family cabin pages.
Our aim, by only providing the absolute necessities, is to give our guests the gift of peace, quiet and happiness. You can book your cabin here
Definitely! Two weeks before your stay, we will send you not only the info about the location of your cabin but also a brief guide to all the fun activities that are on offer in the vicinity of your Slow Cabin. What’s more, in the cabin itself you will also find various walking routes and brochures.
“ssst hier kan je de stilte nog horen”
“Splendid isolation”
