Very good place to explore the beautiful city and come back for rest. Central but quiet - we enjoyed our stay. Kitchen is well equipped and the little courtyard is also very nice. We would have had breakfast more often outside if the weather would have been better. Warmly to recommend.

We had a fantastic four-night stay in Bruges at Barbara’s beautiful home, located right in the heart of the city. The house itself, its location within the city, the city of Bruges, and—last but not least—our charming host are highly recommended in every respect. We would happily return anytime.A tip for drivers: Parking in the garage directly next to the main train station is affordable (7 per day) and ideal. From there, the house is just a 10-minute walk away. Additionally, loading and unloading is possible directly in front of the house.

This house is beautifully decorated and had everything we needed. It was very central, we stopped by a couple of times in the middle of our sight-seeing to swap out some items. Our homeowners met us at check-in, they are lovely people and we immediately knew we had picked the right house. When we had one minor problem they got back to us immediately and fixed it. Also, my daughter loved the attic room and video called her bestie to show it off! I highly recommend this rental.

The location is indeed super, nearby all the interesting things to see, but in a quiet street. It's a late 19 Century house, stairs are narrow, like in the most 19 Century houses of Bruges, but that's also the charm of the house. Thanks for your visit, best regards Barbara

Perfectly located, this is a comfortable, beautiful flat. We enjoyed our stay immensely, and found Barbara waiting for us to show us around. She is very kind and always responded very quickly to my emails and questions. If you have children or aren’t as mobile as you used to be, please be aware that the stairs to the first floor are very steep and the treads are very small. We would stay there again and look forward to our next visit!
