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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
