As a host and a Bruges native, I am delighted to welcome you as guests to the Coolhuys 84 . I was born in Bruges and spent my youth there. Back then, there weren't many tourists. My job drew me to the big cities of Brussels, Ghent and Antwerp. But the beauty of Bruges called me back when I married Anne-Marie who is from Ostend. We were able to raise our son Thibault there in safety in a warm nest. Coming home to Bruges was the best decision of our lives. Every day we feel privileged being able to stroll around Bruges and discover things that may have been here for centuries. Bruges is like an onion : it has so many layers waiting to be explored ! That's why we never get bored of Bruges!

The house is very easily accessible by car or public transport. When you arrive by train, you take the bus 14 in front of the railway station of Bruges. It takes 7 minutes and you get off at the bus stop “Sint Jozef”. This bus stop is at 200 m walking distance from the house. Taxi or Uber is also an option starting in front of the railway station. The most beautiful way to enter Bruges by foot! You enter the old city of Bruges by crossing the canal, about 5 minutes’ walk and start at the Dampoort. Just follow the“Langerei”. The Langerei is a canal or waterway and street leading to the centre of Bruges. It takes a 20 minutes’ walk. This part of Bruges we love the most: it’s so quiet ,so authentic and breathe The Middle Ages. The watercourse and street have a slightly winding trajectory, more or less following the bed of the original River “Reie”. From Roman times to the 15th century, this watercourse was Bruges' main maritime thoroughfare and was connected to the sea. The langerei is lined with brick quay walls with bluestone cover plates or iron parapets on top. The beautiful buildings, predominantly of two or three storeys, had commercial and residential functions for the richest , and some date from the 15th centuries. All Bruges’ richness came thanks to this waterway. It’s downfall because of the siltation of het "Zwin" . 400 m from the “Coolhuys” you will find a great supermarket for all your daily needs: Carrefour market, Pannebekestraat 99: open every day. Probably the best bakery of Bruges you will find at 50 m across the street : The Brioche. A butchery is just across the street. Bike rental at 150 m: Steershop- Koolkerksteenweg 7A.
