Guest Reviews
- Jan (9/5): Topaccommodatie - De locatie, de sfeer en de historische uitstraling zijn geweldig, net als de ruime kamer. Twee kleine kanttekeningen: 'mind your head' staat duidelijk niet voor niets boven de trap in de suite en staand douchen in het bad was lastig.
- cuci mata (9/5): parfait - Chantal est une super woman, toujours disponible pour rendre le séjour agréable. La chambre est très confortable. rien
- jeroen (8/5): Ruime sfeervolle kamer. Rustig en vlakbij het centrale plein. - Ruime sfeervolle kamer. Rustig en vlakbij het centrale plein. Jammer dat er geen ontbijtmogelijkheid s.
- Ruuuub1987 (10/5): Soggiorno fantastico - Tutto, dalla comunicazione fino all'appartamento che era fantastico.
- edward (8/5): -
- Barbara (10/5): Why would one stay anywhere else! - The friendly host, the charming and historic property, close to cafes and restaurants
Our accommodation was delightful and well equipped
- Christopher (10/5): One of our better decisions - Lovely town, lovely guest house, easy access, convenient and ample free parking. Large top-floor apartment in historic period building. Great friendly welcome with excellent communication and responses when our plans changed slightly. Easy walking distance for cafes, restaurants and bars, but not so easy walking back after some of those Belgium beers. We only stayed one night and did not book a breakfast but complementary tea and coffee was available. The apartment slept 4 with a double bedroom and two bunk beds off the lounge and would be great base for more extended stays. Very difficult to be negative about this property, but as with some other reviews staircase access to the loft apartments would challenge anyone with mobility issues or large heavy cases. Access to the other rooms is straightforward.
- Ste (10/5): Had a lovely time host very professional and informative very approachable thanks for the hospital - Lovely room and very friendly host and very professional and knowledgeable about the property will have a to revisit All the little touches about who had stayed there like the photo's and information

- Menzo (9/5): -
- Martin (6/5): - Beautiful historic building very well located. Good free parking on site.
Well equipped shared kitchen. The description does not make it clear that there is no kettle or fridge in the actual room. Therefore we had to go out to the shared kitchen even to make a cup of tea. Awkward stairs up to room. Bath very slippery when using shower. Hair dryer only works on cold. No sauna. The room was called the backpackers room on the door, which was what it was, rather than a family room as described on booking.com
- Sharon (10/5): Really well appointed rooms with super comfortable bed great location just perfect - It is a most comfortable and charming period property which has been made into a most welcoming place to stay. We shall definitely be returning. Nothing
- Friederike (10/5): Super fijn - Het appartement en de bedden geweldig Internet verbinding was slecht en tv werk niet
- Lore (10/5): - Excellente locatie dicht bij alles wat de Westhoek te bieden heeft.
- Max (7/5): -
- Asia (8/5): - Appartamento molto spazioso. Wc al piano terra. Lavabo e vasca al primo piano.
- Deborah (10/5): A great place to stay; although we only planned for one night, we would have loved to have stayed longer. - Excellent communication, quirky & lots of character, very comfy beds. Nothing
- MARGARIDA (9/5): -
- Kathy (9/5): Good place to stay for exploring WW1 sites - Perfect location in town, spacious room with character, nice courtyard, coffee machine, free parking Construction work was happening at the property - not a huge problem but it would have been nice to be informed.
- Carlos (9/5): -
- Mike (9/5): Superb -
- David (8/5): Very good -
- Gary (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent location 200 mtrs from the town centre. Plenty of parking and great hosts. There is nothing to dislike.
- Paul (10/5): Review of Skindles Guesthouse - Skindles Guesthouse is perfectly situated and a couple of minutes walk away from Talbot House museum and the town square and the bars/restaurants.
There is off street parking which was good and the sat nav took me straight to Skindles. Skindles has a quirky feel too it with a fair bit of history to it which gave it more charm. The room itself was spacious, clean and comfortable.. I did manage to peek into another room when we arrive again it was spacious and clean. That a hard one as i truly feel that there was nothing negative about Skindles .. I suppose if you struggle with stairs that maybe an issue but apart from that it's a great place to stay and I wouldn't hesitate to stay there again.. I found it perfect
- Des (8/5): Very pleasant and convenient. - Location was excellent being close to the central square and many of the restaurants and attractions.
Liked the fact that it was an historic building with many original features.
Breakfast was self prepared in apartment (self catering). The free coffee in one of the communal areas was good and appreciated. No bedside light. Bathroom on different floor.
- Laura (7/5): Good -
- Ingrid (4/5): It could have been a nice stay, but the host was not organized to receive us - The location seemed fine, and it had parking. It is a nice property, with original architecture, so quite lovely. There was noone at the property when we arrived, although we informed the host that we were arriving late. They did not provide us with a code to get into the building and they had not prepared a room for us, so we had to wait until they sent us a code to get in. It was very dark inside, there was noone there, we didn't know where the lights were and had to find our way around. They had not prepared a room for us, and told us to pick any room that had bedsheets on the bed. It was quite chilly in the room and we could not figure out how to turn on the heat. Some instructions left in the room on how to use the appliances would be very helpful for international travellers, as we are not familiar with the appliances/heating devices in Europe.
- Gary (10/5): Exceptional - Perfect location, and you get to stay in a historic building
- John (9/5): Our stay was short and sweet. The property was ideal for our needs as a family of 4. Free parking, free tea and coffee m - The property is charming and full of historical interest.
- Jennifer (8/5): Fascinating house in a good location . We would return - Had previously been a gentleman’s club reflected in the decor. Plenty of room to socialise with other guest should you want to and a large kitchen available to guests . Good central location You need to be mobile to manage the stairs as they are narrow . We were on the 1st floor
- Alicia (10/5): wonderful! - The most pleasant stay and an all round wonderful experience. The property and room had so much character, was very homely and so spacious! The facilities were brilliant, Chantel and Peter the most welcoming and attentive hosts and very responsive. Couldn’t have asked for a better stay! N/A
- Philipp (10/5): Exceptional -
