By Jo Weston, VeryChic correspondant
Less than half an hour from Brussels, is the fantastic five-star Martin's Château du Lac. Built in 1906, in the Belle Epoque period when the area became a fashionable weekend retreat for the Brussels elite. Originally a health resort, taking advantage of the health-enhancing waters from the nearby springs, it is now a luxury lakeside hotel. The delightful setting, superb facilities and perfect location near Brussels make this an ideal holiday destination for whether a luxurious long weekend away or a longer holiday.

    Licensed taxis can by recognised by the blue and yellow emblem and should take around 20-30 minutes to reach the city centre of Brussels and 30 minutes to reach the hotel. Alternatively, take the train to Bruxelles-Nord station, and from there, the S8 train to Genval (direction Ottignies), 10 minutes' walk from the hotel.

    From Brussels-South Charleroi Airport:
    A taxi drive to the hotel takes about 1 hour, and can be cost-efficient if shared between four passengers. Alternatively, shuttle buses run once an hour every day to Brussels-Midi station, from there, take the S8 train to Genval (direction Ottignies), 10 minutes' walk from the hotel.
