What a wonderful place to have a relaxing holiday

We would certainly recommend this property.
The property is in a beautiful, quiet location surrounded by woods. It is well placed for visits into Bruges as well as for visits to the coastal towns of Ostend, Blankenberge and Knokke Heist. There are a lot of designer shops in Knokke Heist and a good range of fish retaurants in Ostend. We also visited Gent and Antwerp. Gent is a larger version of Bruges and there is plenty to see in both towns. We would recommend a visit to the newly renovated railway station in Antwerp which houses a number of amazing diamond shops.
The house was clean and very well maintained with plenty of room. The appliances in the kitchen and utilty room are excellent and all furnishings are very comfortable. The property has a lovely garden which catches the sun for most of the day. The description of the property is certainly accurate.
The owners and family live close by, are most hospitable and are an excellent source of information. They bumped into us whilst we were shopping in the supermarket and stopped to chat recommending we visited the Canal Festival which was taking place in Bruges whilst we were there. Anyone who is in Bruges when this festival is taking place should go along but be prepared for the crowds.
A truly lovely property - one which we cannot rate highly enough.
Owner's Response: Indeed the house is a good alternative, close to the city and fast communication to Flanders. Nice to hear that we score to our goal, giving customers good service and a nice holiday :-)
