Guest Reviews
- Peter (8/5): Onverwacht terecht gekomen in erg fijn en luxe b&b - Erg fraai gelegen bed en breakfast. Schitterende tuin met zit, speel en zwemgelegenheid. Keurige kamer, vriendelijk ontvangst en erg goed ontbijt buffet. De omgeving is ideaal voor wandelaars, fietsers en liefhebbers van kastelen en authentieke dorpen. Aanrader!
- Sergio (10/5): - Muy buen trato y atención.
- FRANCIS JOSEPH (10/5): Fabulous B&B. Ghent - Fabulous Place, Spotlessly clean, Lovely people and made you fell at home -Fully recommend it
- Frank (10/5): fantastisk service - Hyggeligt sted med fantastisk service
- Ilemobade (10/5): Peaceful - Peaceful area. Nice and calm. we love it! Lovely hosts too. very friendly and polite.
- Alexandre (10/5): Great family stay - Great B and Bout of the way in a nice country setting. The hosts were wonderful and welcoming. The room was clean and very comfortable for our family of 5. Bountiful breakfast was excellent.
- Diana (4/5): Teleurstellend verblijf - In tegenstelling tot andere beoordelingen werden wij niet hartelijk ontvangen. De kamer was afgeleefd en de bedden niet comfortabel. Dubbel bed keihard, enkele bedden te zacht. Nachtlampje tussen de bedden en onder de bedden onder het stof. Afstandbediening TV en Videorecorder(nog van deze tijd?) plakten dus niet aangenaam schoon. s' Avonds werden we opgebeld om te vragen hoe laat we zouden uitchecken, niet echt relaxt gevoel op vakantie.
- Bram (10/5): - Fijne en vriendelijke eigenaars. Lekker ontbijt. Mooi e zwemvijver, door corona was de wellness gesloten. Prachtige en rustige omgeving.
- Randall (10/5): a great stay - We had a great stay. The place and location was perfect for us.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Absolut silence and quetness, breakfast personal, good coffee
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Großzügige Zimmer, liebevoll eingerichtet, sehr sauber
- Verified traveler (10/5): Top locatie! - Medewerkers waren heel vriendelijk. Kamers waren heel comfortabel en netjes. Er waren veel leuke dingen om te doen voor xe kinderen.
- Bart (8/5): - Prachtig domein en toffe ligging. Zeer vriendelijk personeel. Lekker ontbijt.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Mooie locatie met perfect ingerichte kamer. De meerprijs van 50 euro voor late incheck viel tegen.
- Jeff (10/5): Don't miss this B&B - Wonderful quiet location. The owner took time to share a drink with us and share stories. He went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable. Highly recommend!
- Christy (10/5): Exceeded my expectations - This property is set in farm country and is quiet. There were games for use, free WiFi, and the host had an honor bar with great selection of Belgian beers and other beverages. Much appreciated getaway from the city. Room was as described with great views over the countryside. Worth the drive and in range of Bruges, Ghent and the Flanders fields.
- Jenny (10/5): Wish we had stayed longer - We only stayed for one night on our way back from Centerparcs in The Netherlands but wish we had stayed longer. The location was very peaceful and the bed and breakfast is surrounded by beautiful landscape. The rooms are very comfortable and clean and lots of choice for breakfast. We will be back!
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Bella e rilassante. Struttura confortevole. Proprietari simpatici e disponibili.
- Paul (10/5): Short business trip to Deinze. - Family run B&B only 10 minutes from Deinze. Room very clean and tidy, very good continental breakfast. Ideal for a short stop over. Would recommend.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Ver van de bewoonde wereld, maar dat was geen probleem voor ons. Met een autonavigator goed te vinden.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Personnel acceuillant, et lieu très calme, en pleine campagne. Tout le confort possible et bon petit déjeuner.
- Émilie (8/5): - Un superbe séjour en famille ! A 6 personnes, belle accueil, belle chambre et service très agréable. Je le recommande
- An (8/5): Heerlijk - Rustige ligging op een boogscheut van Brugge. Max 20 km Heerlijk ontbijt buffet. Zeker een aanrader
- Scott (8/5): Lovely - Great B&B. Very quiet and super comfy bed! Good WiFi and great coffee :)
- O'Rourke (6/5): Seclude B & B without the B - Very far off the main roads , this hotel advertised as a B&B with restaurant. Restaurant closed when arrived at 8pm. Friendly directions given to main town, On return expensive drinks €5 for small glass house wine. Next morning breakfast at €10, so its not a B&B We felt the web add had mislead us, we chose the hotel because it offered food after a long journey - it did not.
- JUN HO (10/5): Wonderful place for family and couples - It is amazing place for family and owner is really friendly and smile person. Beautiful decorations and viewing. Wonderful swimming pool is open soon. We will be definitely come back with family.
- Anette Bjørg (10/5): Landlig og koselig overnattingssted - Landlig og koselig sted et godt stykke fra motorveien. Romslige rom med gode senger. Deilig frokost!
- Verified traveler (10/5): Super - Aussergewöhnlich freundlicher Service! Sehr Freunliches Personal!!!
- santiago (10/5): Magnifica relación calidad precio - Habitacion amplia, muy confortable y muy limpia, propietarios muy gentiles. Wifi muy potente
- Verified traveler (10/5): Sehr Ruhige Lage und sehr nette Gastgeber - Hatte ein sehr geräumiges Zimmer mit Großen Bett. Komfortabel und ruhig. Das Hotel ist sehr ländlich aber durch die sehr offene Art der Gastgeberfamilie mischt man sich sehr schnell unter den anderen Gäste so das man, wenn man will, sich abends bei einen Bier oder Abendessen unterhalten kann. Mir hat der Aufenthalt sehr gut gefallen und würde auf jeden fall wieder dort buchen. Kann es auch ruhig empfehlen.
- Seyed Sajad (2/5): Katastrphe - ich muss mich über den katastrophalen Urlaub beschweren. Ihre Mitarbeiter haben mir ganz tolle vielversprechende Fotos des Hotels gezeigt. Ich vertrete die Ansicht, dass die Versprechungen mit der Realität übereinstimmen müssten. Im Einzelnen beschwere ich mich über die folgenden Punkte : Erstens sollte das Hotel ein normaler Weg zum Zugang haben,aber das Hotel liegt im komischen Ort und zu weit von Stadt Zentrum mit der sehr schmalen Straße zum Zugang. Darüber hinaus ist mein Zimmer so alt und furchtbar sowie ein Geisterhaus und meine Freundin kann nicht von Angst schlafen. Weiterhin sind die Zimmern sehr unsauber insbesondere das Badezimmer und Bettwäsche und Tücher und der kleine Kühlschrank und davon habe ich viel Fotos gemacht zum Dokumentieren. Außerdem sind die Wände so eingebaut, dass man die Nachbarn hört, wenn sie sprechen. Abschließend nahm ich vor allem Anstoß am fehlenden warmen Wasser im WC und fehlenden Licht im Badezimmer.
- Michael (8/5): für Familien mit Kindern , aber auch für Ruhe such - Für Familie mit Kindern , aber auch für jeden hat dieses Hotel die richtige Lage. Wir waren als Sportgemeinschaft zur ECSG in Gent angereist und fanden hier die nötige Ruhe zwischen den Wettkämpfen um uns zu erholen aber auch um uns in aller Ruhe auf den nächsten Tag vor zu bereiten. Mit Spaziergängen in der Natur oder Spielen in der Natur wie Wikinger Schach und Boule haben wir unsere Köpfe frei bekommen vom Wettkampfstress. Es war sehr sehr heiss Ende Mai 2017, aber es war klasse dort. Der Hotelier und seine Frau waren jederzeit bereit uns bei Fragen die nötigen Antworten zu geben oder uns Plätze in Restaurants zu reservieren. Das Hotel ist ein kleiner feiner Familienbetrieb. Ich würde auch meinen Freunden jederzeit dieses Hotel empfehlen.
- richard (10/5): Get treated like one of the family - Hans and Melanie offer a unique experience. As other reviewers have mentioned, Hans maintains a well-stocked bar, but there's quite a lot else. The house is set in farmland with a drainage stream running along a boundary (saw a heron and moorhens), giving a completely different impression of Belgium. The place has a lot of distractions for kids - chickens, a lot of play areas, guinea pigs, aviary birds, even a planned walking circuit around the whole place. At our stay, they offered fresh strawberries and (very strong) beer (11.5%) from neighbours and friends - and Hans is a polyglot who can entertain - in English, Dutch, French...and Croatian - and has a great fund of anecdotes. They are also great diplomats, handling residents from a wide variety of viewpoints with tact and diplomacy. Breakfast variety isn't huge, but is bought fresh, so don't expect breakfast before 8.15-8.30, because it depends on the bakery opening. A final word. Hans and Melanie operate this B&B on an open and honest basis. Most things (like helping yourself to the bar) are done on a trust basis. They do treat you like an extension of their family - but this involves give, as well as take, so don't go expecting to be treated like royalty (so no arrival at midnight, demanding food) - it does involve respect on both sides. We went here as the first stop on a 5,000km plus drive around Europe, and I'm very happy that we started here.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Definitely off the beaten track - Recently had a 2 night stay here and it was great. The place is in a very rural area so you can be assured of being away from any hustle and bustle. Luckily the owner has put lots of B & B signs up otherwise it would be difficult to find. We found the owners to be very friendly and helpful. It was very nicely decorated and furnished, the room was clean and comfortable. The breakfast was great. The only thing I could pick on was the soundproofing as it was easy to hear the TV and goings on from the other rooms but it didn't hinder us greatly. All in all a great place to stay and we wouldn't hesitate to come back.
- Anna (10/5): Perfect locations, fantastic atmosphere! - It is a family hotel located in amazing place. The owners are absolutely fantastic. I got a great dinner and perfect breakfast. Gorgeous atmosphere, all of guests had possibility to know each other. It was a great stay there!
- Dirk (10/5): - War geschäftlich dort nur für eine Nacht. War alles super. Gern wieder.
- Tramper (10/5): Hübsches Hotel in der Nähe von Gent - Wurden sehr freundlich empfangen auch nach 21.00 Uhr. Gut für Familien geeignet
- Tom (8/5): lovely B&B very quiet location - Great little place not far form the motorway as a stop off for us. a very family oriented environment as your are welcomed into their lovely dedicated guest property. stunning views across the fields and a well stocked bar.
- Julien (10/5): Superbe séjour. - Pour une deuxième fois dans ce merveilleux endroit. Grand plaisir àvoir à retrouver Mélanie et Hans. Merci mille fois pour votre accueil. Vous êtes formidable. Mélanie est aussi un cordon bleu. À vous revoir très bientôt.
- Julien (10/5): Un endroit merveilleux. - Merci, mille fois merci à Mélanie et Hans pour ce super séjour et leur merveilleuse hospitalité.. Tout était réellement parfait et c'est avec grand plaisir que je reviendrai parmi vous.
- hans (8/5): prima plek - hartelijke ontvangst
- Klaus (6/5): - Fint bortset fra at jeg efterfølgende opdagede, at værten havde skrevet for meget på regningen
- Sébastien (10/5): Paradis champêtre. - Hans et Mélanie nous ont très bien accueilli dans leur belle demeure située à la campagne. Parfaitement située entre Gand et Bruges, cet hôtel nous a permis de visiter les deux villes sur un weekend pour un tarif bien plus abordable que dans ces villes hautement touristiques. Le petit déjeuner nous a laissé sur cette très bonne impression. Nous y retournerons avec grand plaisir. J'en profite pour les remercier et leur souhaiter bonne continuation.
- Philip (8/5): A real find - Terrific ...hotel owners are on site & very friendly & helpful to all guests . The hotel is being very tastefully developed in a lovely quiet rural area
- Tony (10/5): Excellent friendly modern B&B - We only stayed for one night but the entire experience was excellent. The staff are so friendly, they even reserved us a table at a superb local restaurant. The room was spotless and modern.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Can't recommend highly enough - Lovely rural location, amazing room/apartment done to the highest standard and incredibly clean, really cosy bar/breakfast/chillout area and the guy who runs it is so nice and helpful.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Not far from the motorway on our way to Germany - We needed somewhere to stay on our way to Germany and found this place. The owners were really helpful and friendly and the bar was really nice. The room was nicely decorated, clean and comfortable and we had a good night's sleep. There is a town not too far away where there are restaurants to eat in the evening if you need and it wasn't more than 10 minutes back to the motorway in the morning. Overall a good stay.
- Yelena (10/5): Great place to visit Bruge and Ghent from - We went to this hotel for quiet and the reviews that mentioned the friendliness of Hans and Melanie. On both accounts this B&B hit the mark. Hans, Melanie and family were all very nice to be around. The hotel was super quiet and we slept very well.
- Chan (6/5): Friendly B&B - Quiet stay in a dead end street in the middle of farming land. About 7 min drive to highway - 20 min from Bruges and 25 min to Gent. Very friendly owners who love to talk with the residents. Relaxing place in little Belgium.
- Maria (10/5): Charming bed and breakfast hotel in quiet location - We had a wonderful experience at this B&B. Hans and his wife were the most welcoming and wonderful hosts. It was like staying at friends' warm, friendly and hospitable place. We really enjoyed the breakfast which was varied and delicious. Nicely designed dining and bar area with wooden floors, beautiful decorations, right in the middle of beautiful countryside, yet only half an hour drive from Bruges and short drive from Ghent. We were lucky that our stay coincided with an arts biennale of modern Belgium art at Chateau de Pocques 2 minute drive from the B&'B and were given an opportunity to view amazing art and explore the Chateau, thanks to our wonderful hosts who recommended the event. We couldn't have had a better stay and soak the beautiful scenery of Belgium and it's people. This B&B is probably the best we have stayed in, for a long time. We look forward to staying there again.
