This is the first house I've had the opportunity to explore so far, not an area that has interested me so much so far but I really liked this place, it's aged and decayed really well and had some beautiful soft light in there along with many items of interest. Visited with The_Raw, Trollface and PocFan1984.
Unfortunately I know hardly anything about the history of the place, at the entrance to a long forest pathway there is a small shrine with a plaque quoting some dates in the early 40's. There were a number of personal items in the house, with a better grasp of Flemish and a bit more time could be possible to build a story from the contents but I had neither. The earliest dated document I found was 1898 and the most recent was 1978. One room contained an absolutely massive bed (length wise) which is why the title is what it is.
Plenty more rooms and objects to photograph here, well worth a little visit as although very aged it seemed to have not been vandalised for the most part.
The high-res pics as well as a few extras are on my blog page, linked back to OblivionState. http://www.unexposed.photography/Visits/AbandonedCottageBEL

A desk with books, papers and artefacts strewn around it.
Exterior shot.
Main staircase.
On-site security.
The Giant's Bed, the bed was maybe 11 feet long, something massive, bit strange!
A daily journal dated 1898.
One of many photos littered around this room.
Cradles and baskets
Detail on the window.
That desk again.
The house was in a poor state of repair, found this in one very dark room..
Thankfully no one was hurt and we could have a laugh about it.
