- Dendooven (10/5): - Jammer dat het ontbijt niet buiten op het mooie terras in die uitnodigende omgeving kon worden genomen.

- Wiebke (10/5): Liebevoll und geschmackvoll - Hier stimmt einfach alles. Farradabstellmöglichkeiten mit Lademöglichkeit. Ein sehr hĂŒbsches und groĂes Zimmer mit fantastischem Ausblick ins GrĂŒne. Eine sehr nette Gastgeberin, die uns noch Proviant fĂŒr unsere Radtour mitgab. Das FrĂŒhstĂŒck war klasse, mit Kuchen, Obst und Joghurt mit Granola. Das ganze himmlisch ruhig gelegen. Besser geht es nicht.
- Paulina (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sarah (8/5): Lovely hosts and beautiful property - Lovely location and hosts, beautiful property. Price a little expensive and lots of mosquitoes.
- Nikolai (10/5): One of the best places we have visited so far. - We were warm welcomed and had a very pleasant stay at this quite and beautiful place. We enjoyed great breakfast and conversation with the owners who were really interested in making our short stay very comfortable.
- Florin-aurelian (10/5): Exceptional -
- Benjamin (10/5): Exceptional -
- Mary (10/5): Wonderful stay in a beautiful home with an excellent host. - Loved D&A Nest! Ann is the perfect host. The breakfast was delicious (home-made) and we even made sandwiches for lunch in the car. Ann is a wealth of information - she helped us plan our route around the Netherlands and was willing to help in any way. This was one of our best experiences at a B&B! The views from the bedrooms were lovely as were the views from the dining area. A lovely property with many thoughtful touches. The house is set up to provide privacy and comfort.
I would highly recommend D&A Nest to anyone visiting Belgium and particularly individuals from the United States, as Ann's English is excellent! We liked everything - no complaints at all!
- Marta (10/5): First stop of our European tour, absolutely brilliant! Highly recommend this place. - Beautiful property, lovely location. Made even better by the warm welcome of the owners. Didnât stay long enough.
- Pieterjan (10/5): One of the best stays I have ever done! - - super friendly people. You really feel welcome, and no matter what you need they are there for you.
- super clean with beautiful cosy interior.
- yummie breakfast even I could not eat it all. Lots of variation and really delicious food.
- great garden with facilities to store bikes Nothing negative to say.
- Paulina (10/5): Amazing place. Such a lovely and friendly hosts. In quite beautiful village. - I loved everything.
- Keith (10/5): "Amazing Stay with Exceptional Hospitality" - Our stay was absolutely outstanding. The owner was brilliantâexceptionally friendly and attentive, going to every effort to ensure our comfort. The room was amazing, providing my family and me with a wonderful nightâs sleep. Breakfast was lovely, and the property itself is beautiful, with charming gardens that add to the overall experience. Truly an amazing place.
- Carl (10/5): Perfect BnB to Maximise your Comfort whilst Exploring Belgium - The property was pristine - a picturesque modern cottage style building amongst fields with an incredible garden space. The decor was calm, inviting and really made the property feel like home. The room was immaculate - cleaned up for us daily and with all the necessities provided such as water and coffee facilities in the room.
However the stand-out for this property are the hosts. They are welcoming and go above and beyond to make your stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. They make you feel like family!
I couldn't believe how lucky I was finding this property with it's location at the price listed! I'd whole heartedly recommend this for anyone looking to explore Belgium or just spend some time in the countryside. There's nothing negative to say about the property at all!
The only thing to bear in mind is that Uber - whilst available - is quite pricy in this area. However you can rent bikes from the property and use these instead.
- Eric (10/5): Just wonderful - Extremely friendly, courteous and helpful hosts, wonderful location, beautiful rooms, wonderful garden, exceptional breakfast. Many thanks for the support with the taxi service for the GMM 2024. That they are already fully booked for next year :-D :-D :-D
- Marianne (10/5): A very good B&B - We met a great hospitality from the owners. The room was big and nice and the view over the garden and trees was relaxing. Even a deer came by. The breakfast was rich and good.

- Xin (10/5): Perfect for family stay, clean, lovely deco and facilities, excellent breakfast, super-nice host :-) - I didn't think we'd find somewhere so heart warming and lovely after a long car journey in a windy and rainy, horrible sort of day. We arrived at the D&A Nest and felt immediately warm and welcomed. The place was nice and gives a lovely home feeling. The host was excellent, very friendly, and gave us such a wonderful breakfast that I still remember. We had many lovely conversations and she also made our children very entertained and happy. We were really lucky to find such a gem, and will definitely come back to stay in the future. Thank you so much! nothing really. It was such a lovely stay that made all of our family happy and warm after a long car journey :-)
- Ralph (10/5): A Wonderful and Quiet Place to Stay in an Excellent Location - Is there a rating higher than 10? D&A Nest is a fantastic place to stay - a restored and converted farmhouse made into a B&B with guest rooms upstairs with the entrance and main kitchen and dining room downstairs. We found everything to be extremely clean, the room to be comfortable, tastefully decorated and with a great private shower room and the hosts to be absolutely lovely.
The "honesty fridge" (and coffee machine) is a nice touch and means that a selection of cold drinks and beers as well as proper coffee is available to guests at all times and at very reasonable prices.
We stayed with a baby and a comfortable baby crib was provided and also with two dogs for whom bowls were provided. The charge for the dogs was 15 euros which is also very reasonable charge in comparison to other places which sometimes charge per dog.
The parking is right outside and the surrounding area is extremely quiet.
We will definitely be staying again in the future. I genuinely can't think of anything which could be improved...
- Igor (10/5): Exceptional - Friendliness, home feeling
- Hayley (10/5): incredible, clean and friendly - absolutely amazing! the nicest place I have ever stayed. couldnât recommend enough!
- Jonas (8/5): Very good - Modern accomodation with a familiar feel. Soft bed
- Caroline (10/5): Lovely start to our holiday - Beautiful setting. Very well equipped and extremely helpful and friendly owner. Honesty bar was nice to have. Garden beautiful to sit in. Fifteen minute walk from lovely restaurant
- David (10/5): Perfect stay for what I was looking for. - Incredible breakfast with all kind of things you MAY need like fresh fruit, juice, bread, cakes, honey, jam, butter, ham, fresh fried eggs just made by the owner, milk, cheese and more..like at home.
Incredible location, sorrounded by green, orchards, vegetation and trees, a place for quietness, calmness, with no noise at all neither during the day or the night.
The owners, Ann and Dagan, are very nice, polite, focused to help, and in fact, very good people. I will remember this stay as the best in much time.
If ever I come back to that region of Belgium, I will stay in their house for sure if they have avalaible rooms after these comments đđ
I could write many more things but I am supossed to make brief comments.
I tried to publish pictures but the web doesn,t let me do it, maybe is my mobile.
Thanks again Ann and Dagan for making us feel like at home. Nothing.
- Julia (10/5): Exceptional -
- William (10/5): Perect place. Very kind and helpfull owners. - Everything was good from the beginning on!
Nice welcome, perfect and clean room. Breakfast was more than enough and awsome choices. Nothing.
- Ghassan (10/5): Beautiful place and perfect hosts! - Beautiful place. A haven of serenity. Probably the best hosts ever. Loved it! Nothing!
- Martin (9/5): Superb -
- William (10/5): A place you will feel like home - Lovely people. Breakfast đ
- Paul (10/5): Exceptional -
- Carmen (10/5): Cozy, stylish, nature - stay - Rarely seen such an aesthetically yet comfortably furnished B&B. I had the 'Zwalwennest' room, a cozy bed and a great view with a window front into the garden and the fields behind it. There is no oversized luxury here, the furnishing is functional - but still super elegant with a lot of flair. Everything very clean. A breakfast to die for! Various fresh fruit, homemade jam, apple juice from the fruit farmer next door, fresh cheese in whole or in slices, sausage, freshly baked rolls and slices of bread while still warm, a bite-sized piece of freshly baked cake, a glass of homemade crunchy yoghurt. You sit in the open dining room kitchen and watch how Ann (the owner) prepares either a fried egg sunny side up or a delicious boiled egg... I did not like that I had to leave so early and could not stay for a while ;o)
- Alla (10/5): We stayed here for 1 night with 2 kids and 2 cats. Everything was very good, very nice room, comfortable bads, testy bre - Itâs a great place with the great owner! Nothing

- Bart (10/5): Exceptional -
- Mark (10/5): Exceptional - Charming, immaculate, dog friendly, delicious generous breakfast and lovely people to greet us.
- Mirta (10/5): Nest of hospitality and cosiness - What a perfect place! Lovely location that is peaceful, easily accessible and close to Retie. Rooms are super cosy, well equipped and spotlessly clean. Common area and garden are much more than we expected. Like everything is meant for you to relax and enjoy. Breakfast is amazing (local delicacies, fresh warm bread, some of best cherries in my life...) with interesting twist every day. Best part of this already amazing B&B are the hosts. Such a warm, friendly and fun people who really care to make your stay best as possible. Lots of little details and treats that make you feel like home. Highly recommended if you are going to Graspop, exploring Flanders or in any other case.
- Loic (10/5): Welcoming, warm place and host, countryside, peaceful - Such a great house in countryside with a very nice host, very welcoming and with an incredible care for decorating which gives a warm place to stay.
