Beautifully decorated and central apartment.

A lovely apartment with lots of character. It has everything you need, and is in a central location. The owner is very helpful. We had a great stay - it is one of our favourite properties on Stayz so far.

Perfection in the heart of Brugge

Stop scrolling! If you are looking to stay in Brugge then this is the place to be. An impeccable, traditional apartment that will make you feel like a local. A short walk to everything you will need (shops, bars, restaurants, main squares). The house itself is an immaculate three story house, with excellent heating and amenities. Even better was our host Rhonda, who let us check in early, whose communication was exemplary, who picked us up from the train station, gave us a locals tour and showed us how everything worked in the house. From the small Christmas touches, to the impeccably set up master bedroom, everything was immaculate. Washer and dryer were a great help when travelling Europe and were easy to use. The kitchen has everything we needed to cook a few meals, and the lounge room gave such a homely feel. We will never allow any of our friends and family to visit Brugge without staying here. An exemplary experience!
