Blending Flemish countryside charm with contemporary design, Schuur 80 is no ordinary holiday home. Tucked away in Haasdonk, this former barn–turned–peaceful haven offers the understated luxury of a place suspended in time.
A getaway in the heart of the Flemish countryside
"Our guests often say the place looks even better in real life than in the pictures."
Just a few kilometers from Antwerp and Ghent, surrounded by endless fields of corn and potatoes, stands Schuur 80. This majestic 1930s barn, lovingly renovated in 2024, is the perfect blend of rural heritage and modern comfort.
Behind its humble stone façade, flooded with light from towering windows, lies a five-star holiday home ready to welcome families and groups of friends in search of authenticity and a breath of fresh air.
A 2.0
barn
Once a hub of agricultural trade — grain, fertilizer, and machinery — Schuur 80 lay dormant for decades.
In 2021, current owners Karel and Marijke decided it was time to breathe new life into the old barn. Over the course of three years, and in collaboration with architect Bram Schelstraete of Studio M&S, they transformed the rustic structure into a 300-square-meter contemporary residence — all without compromising its original soul. The historic walls were preserved, the old barn doors replaced with panoramic windows that blur the line between indoors and out, and the interior reimagined with a warm, light-filled loft aesthetic. A graceful fusion of rural heritage and modern comfort.

Welcome to Schuur 80.
Meticulous decor
and a special atmosphere

After a walk in the forest, it's time to read by the fire.
The moment you step through the door at Schuur 80, it feels like home. The spaces are generous, yet the atmosphere stays cozy: two spacious living rooms, a professional kitchen, four inviting bedrooms, three bathrooms (one with a hot tub), a private cinema, a pool table, and a bar with sweeping views over the fields.
Everything is air-conditioned, fully connected, and tastefully appointed. The décor blends raw wood, quality materials, and contemporary touches. It’s the kind of place where you’ll happily curl up by the fire with a book, sip a drink at the bar, or play with the kids in the game room. Every detail has been carefully considered to help you unwind. And the cherry on top? A hot tub tucked away in the wild orchard — the kind of spot you’ll never want to leave.
Holidays
in Belgium
Schuur 80 is also the perfect starting point for exploring the surrounding area. Hop on a bike and cruise through the polders of Kruibeke, visit the castles of Waasland, or enjoy a picnic by a quiet pond. Craving a bit of culture? The Verbeke Foundation — with its fascinating contemporary art installations — is just around the corner.
For the more adventurous, there are kayak trips, Vespa rides, or even a visit to the mysterious sunken village of Saeftinghe. Whether you’re after total relaxation or a full day of activities, the choice is yours. And if city life starts calling, Antwerp is just a 30-minute drive away.
