About this property

A great place to see Bruges, Ghent and the coast of Flanders

Our house is located on the border of a residential area in the woods of Hertsberge, very close to Bruges, Gent, Flanders's fields and the coast. We've got great reviews so far!

One part of the house is where we live, the other part is the one we rent out.

Newly redecorated.

Your area consists of a kitchen, a large living and dining room, with view on the large garden, three bedrooms, named Sri Lanka, South Africa and Australia, and a bathroom with bathtub and shower.

The kitchen has all you need to prepare your meals: a gas stove, sink with warm/cold water, pots, pans and kitchen utensils, tableware, a toaster, a coffee machine, a water heater and a micro wave.

The Sri Lanka room has a two-persons bed (180*200 cm) with a pocket spring medium firm matras. There is a night table also.

There is also a desk and chair for pc usage, and a closet.

The South Africa room has a two-persons bed (180*200 cm) with a pocket spring medium firm matras. There are is a night tables also.

There is also a desk and chair for pc usage, and a closet.

The Australia room has a two one-person beds (90*200 cm) with pocket spring medium firm mattresses. There is a night tables also.

There is also a desk and chair for pc usage, and a closet.

We have a baby bed that can be put in one of the rooms if need be.

You have your own key to your own front door, which i'll hand over at arrival, when i'm in. When i'm not, there is a keysafe at the entry.

I work from home, so i'm there a lot. Any questions you might have : i'm there to answer them.

But if you want to be left alone, i'll stay out of your way.

Our house is in a very quiet neighbourhood, at the border of the woods. It is a 15 min drive to Bruges, 30 minutes to Gent, 1 hour to Brussels and Antwerp, 45 minutes to Flanders' Fields and 15 to 30 minutes to the Belgian coastal towns. An ideal place to stay when visiting Belgium !

Hiking and biking is great in the neighbourhood, and can be a nice change from the cultural visits. There is a possibility to go kayaking close-by.

Public Transport is poor, so you'll need a car or take a cab in and out of Bruges.

Superb
Erik was fantastic from the outset. He gave fantastic information, directions and a brilliant check in process. He was on hand for advice and information regarding both the house and Bruges. My wife and I couldn’t fault The Two Oaks!

What a place! :)
Owner Erik was quick to respond and provided tons of helpful information (hiking, cycling, travelling, parking, visiting Bruges and surrounding towns) Many thanks for the wonderful stay. We were lucky to have a massive house to our selves for a night :) very good size rooms and comfortable beds, you will find everything you'd need in the house. Beautiful garden, chickens, piglet and alpacas :) A+ We will definitely comeback :) Thanks again!

Nice time in Belgium
The accommodation does what it promises. Erik is a fantastic host. Erik is always available and has a lot of advice for holidaymakers. The accommodation has everything you need to look after yourself for a longer period of time. The location is extremely quiet and invites you to relax. We can imagine that we will come back!

About the host

Hosted by Erik Van Assche

Host profile image
I decided to stop my professional live, apart from some smaller assignments. I live here with my partner and her daughter; who studies in Ghent. We like to travel and meet people from all over the world.

Why they chose this property

We decided to rent this part of our house, which is fully self contained, as of March 2016. In 2017 we had 300 nights booked and had 90 % of top reviews. This only motivates us to go on and try to do as good in the future. Our grounds are 5000 square meters in a vert quiet neighbourhood, parking on the grounds and close to all sites in Flanders. A great place for a short stay or for a vacation.

What makes this property unique

We have a great garden, with three Alpacas as of spring 2018. Parking is available. Close to the woods and great for site seeing, hiking and cycling. We are around most of the time to assiste you and answer any queries you may have.
