To end the tour of the cottage, I’d like to thank you for taking the time to scroll through these pages.
But also, I couldn’t remain silent about the ancient legend — though is it truly just a legend? — of the great stag Melchior.

Since time immemorial, they say, he appears at flickering dusk, misty dawn, or deep within the dark heart of our forests.
You’ll recognize him by his majestic bearing and the shimmering orb that hovers between his noble antlers.
Whatever you do, don’t run from him! The elders say that if you make a wish, he will grant it.

Ah, but I almost forgot one detail:
Until now, only children have had the great joy of seeing him…

And finally, one piece of advice shared with every guest of Cottage Christine — and it never fails:
If you gently open your ears, keep your eyes wide open, and most importantly, open your heart wide…
then within you, the magic of the Ardennes will awaken.
