I'm your host, Lesley, and have a passion for growth and development. As a CEO, coach and proud mum, I combine my love for leadership with my dedication to my family.
A fun fact about me: I am a former athlete, which reflects my determination and perseverance.
My motto, "She believed she could, so she did", guides me in everything I undertake.
What makes my property unique is the addition of a TechnoGym gym, where guests can enjoy a comprehensive workout experience during their stay. It is my passion to promote a healthy lifestyle and inspire my guests to stay active even when travelling.
I am fluent in English, French and Dutch and love communicating and connecting with people from all over the world.
As an avid lover of dark chocolate, I can never get enough of it! It is my ultimate guilty pleasure.
I am proud to call Kortenberg my home, a charming place steeped in history and surrounded by beautiful nature.
With "Central Oasis", I strive to offer our guests a warm welcome and a comfortable stay, infused with personality and hospitality.
I look forward to welcoming you to our home and making your stay in Belgium unforgettable!
Lots of love
Lesley
I'm Hans, a people-focused entrepreneur driven to make a difference through meaningful connection.
With a passion for sports, adventure, and the outdoors, I believe that real growth starts when you step outside your comfort zone. I gain energy from new experiences, physical challenges, and honest conversations with people who, like me, are looking for more than the ordinary.
Whether I’m standing on top of a trail with my mountain bike or working on an idea that creates impact, I do it with passion, focus, and the firm belief that together, we always go further.
My motto?
“Alone we go faster, together we go further.”
Why an Airbnb?
Our Airbnb was born from the desire to offer more than just a place to stay. We want to create an experience.
A place to recharge, find new energy, and feel inspired by the surroundings. We love welcoming guests with warmth, attention to detail, and space to truly enjoy, whether that's through sport, relaxation, or meaningful connection.
Warm regards,
Hans
How we started
This house was never just a house.
It was our home: full of memories, laughter, and long conversations around the dinner table. It’s located in the heart of Kortenberg, the town where Lesley grew up and where our family business has been rooted since 1979.
In 2021, everything shifted.
We made a bold choice: to take our children out of the traditional school system and dive into a life of home education ... or better said, world education. From that moment on, we decided to live and learn differently. We packed up our mobile home and hit the road as often as we could. Nature became our classroom, new places our playground, and time together our greatest teacher.
Opening up our home to guests was a natural next step.
We wanted to share the warmth, comfort, and grounding energy of this place with others. Whether you're passing through, recharging, working or seeking a deeper connection with yourself and your surroundings.
This house still feels like home to us.
And we hope, even just for a moment, it feels like home to you too.
