Luxurious 17th century Bruges house in the historical city center

Beautiful place just outside the main tourist area. Great places nearby and easy walk to all parts of Bruges. Would highly recommend.

Just wanted to include a review of this great property. It's a charming little house that our family really enjoyed during our visit to Bruges. It's location is excellent - easy walking to the center of town, even with our 8 year old. Every morning, we woke up early and walked to the bakery to buy fresh bread and croissants! I'd read the other reviews and while I had some concerns about the stairs and parking, it was not an issue for us. The stairs are very step and might be a problem for younger children, but my 8 year old was fine. Also, the gentlemen who showed us the property explained exactly where to park. We were able to unload right in front of the house and then move the car to the recommended area (a few minute walk for my husband). The location was also convenient for touring the WWI sites in France and Belgium. We did manage to lock ourselves out of the house once (despite warnings), but the gentlemen who manages the property was there to help us out ten minutes later!!

We had a wonderful stay at this home. I understand the concern about the staircase, but we stayed here with a 2 and 4 year old without any trouble. We simply moved some chairs in front of the staircase depending on what floor we were spending time on to ensure our 2 year old didn't attempt the stairs on his own.

Great location. Short walk to all the sights, but yet quiet enough to feel relaxed. Traditional Flemish architectural details made it feel like our accommodation was part of our cultural immersion.

One thing to confirm prior to booking is the wifi. It wasn't working (nor was the television) for the duration of our stay, which made planning our outings and activities challenging. I'm guessing it was just a temporary problem, but do confirm that it is working prior to booking. The owner was kind enough to let us borrow some DVDs so we had a little bit of entertainment in the evenings while our kids were sleeping. There were some pamphlets and brochures about things to do in the area that helped us as well, since we couldn't research that stuff during our stay.

The location is good and the owner is very nice. He told us that there was street parking just 4 or 5 blocks from the home. I parked my new car on the street for 5 days and it was completely OK. It's a little bit of a walk to the city center but it's a very nice walk with several restaurants and cafes along the way. The steps upstairs to the bedrooms are VERY steep so be warned. I would stay here again.

We very much enjoyed our stay here. The house was close to amenities but still located on a quiet road, and had a delightful bakery down the street. They had very large rooms with spacious beds and nice decorations set up for Christmas. There is also a very pretty inner courtyard eating area which would be lovely when it's warmer.
