Shopping
No big-brand stores here, but some small shops with often local products.
Ôm Cosmos at Durbuy-Ville
Hand sculpted products, wooden toys, glassware, soaps, ...
The shop of a skilled man from the Himalayas who sells his own handiwork. Of course he also did the decoration of his cozy shop himself. You immediately feel his inspiration as you enter the place. Quality stuff from around the world on a few square meters area.

L'Herbe Rouge at Durbuy-Ville
From furniture to scarf, and back again.
L'Herbe Rouge is difficult to summarize in a single category.
You will find both home decoration, lighting and furniture as clothing and accessories. As guests of La Goutte you might recognize a few things from this shop.

Les Demoiselles at Durbuy-Ville
Self made jewels, clothes and accessories.
Just past the bridge, direction Barvaux, is a new store. The owner has her small studio where she makes and sells her own made gems. For not too much money you will find nice things. It pays to run just about 100m from the old center and find something nice.

Que du Belge at Durbuy-Ville
Belgian products, but not the obvious chocolate and beers.
The name says it all, here only Belgian stuff. But not the obvious beers, cakes, waffles and chocolate but indeed the more exclusive things. Belgian wine for example. Belgian wine? Yes, Belgian wine. Or how about a cigar with tobacco from the Semois? A little liqueur? Of course also some of the best beers we have to offer. What did you expect? And quality chocolate, naturally. In short, only the better work. And everything Belgian.

Ferme Paquet at Morville
Homemade cow's cheese and jam.
On Friday afternoon, Saturday and Sunday morning the Mrs Paquet opens her little shop. She sells her homemade cheeses, yogurt, butter and milk, and fills her shelves with local products (jams, potatoes, fresh eggs and local beers). I buy there, among others, the flower I use to bake our bread. Once every two weeks she also has delicious ham from a farm in the neighbourhood.

Chèvrerie d'Ozo
Goat cheese, because it does not always has to be a cow thing.
In the center of the small village of Ozo is a goat farm where you can find superior goat cheese. You can find the cheese throughout Belgium, at the better cheeseshop, but fresh from the farm he tastes the best. The farm is well taken care of and you can visit the chamois-colored alpine goats in their stable.

Boucherie Bodson at Durbuy-Ville
Smoked Ardennes hams, sausages and fine meat.
Durbuy-Ville has hardly any shops where you can buy food. However, at Bodsons you can buy things for your breakfast or sandwiches. But the main reason you go there is because of the typical Ardennes meats. One of their specialties are the smoked hams and smoked sausages. During the season try the venison pasty.
Open every day from 8 to 18h, except Wednesday.

La Ferme André
Large selection of bio-products.
La Ferme André professionalised and built a beautiful and spacious shop next to the farm where you can find the largest assortment of organic products from the region. Compare it a bit with a modest version of a Bio-Planet.
