Ter Zee - Belgium

On the way back to the ferry from Belgium where we had recently spent a week bimbling about we decided to look at this former coastal retirement home which by all accounts was pretty much wrecked but worth visiting just for the Chapel in the grounds

We bumped into a lady who lived next door when we were leaving who explained to us that 2 or 3 years ago it was a lovely retirement home and the owners got an offer from a development company to turn the place into a hotel, so literally overnight they packed up the old folk put them in bed and breakfasts and waited for the money to roll in .... the deal fell through leaving the site to the mercy of the local kids who trashed and burnt the place!

that dinning hall pic is great.
1st time i looked at it, i looked like you left a filter half over the lense. lol

Most unusual chapel. Love the outside and the round window photo.

Ha! Nice one Lilli. We took one look at this place, explored the chapel (which is quite good) and buggered off! You've done a good job of making it look respectable!

to be honest we did the same but after seeing the chapel on a site I knew I had to take a peek
