In 1974 Yvo and Iselle Van Orshoven bought the farmhouse with

The name of the farmhouse was immediately changed to “ Orshof ”.
In the past years, the domain steadily expanded to the present area of approximately 15 ha. The buildings, the gardens and the parking area taken up approx. 4 ha. The rest of the area consists of grazing area, fields and a bit of forest.
