The Space:

Bruges in winter is a city that earns every superstition about magic - candlelit cobblestones, frost-touched canal banks, and the Belfry rising through the mist just two minutes from your front door. This three-floor townhouse on Poitevinstraat puts you at the very centre of that atmosphere, giving you a proper Bruges home to return to after each day of exploring one of Europe's finest medieval cities.



Living space

The living room is generous and comfortable, with ample room for the whole group to settle in after a day on foot. A large SmartTV with Ambilight fills one wall - ideal for a quiet evening in when the cold draws you indoors. The inner courtyard brings natural light deep into the house, and a covered lounge area means you can step outside for fresh air regardless of the weather. It is a sheltered, private corner of calm hidden within the city centre.



Kitchen & dining

The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need to cook and eat in: a refrigerator, dishwasher, stove, microwave, hot water kettle, coffee maker, toaster, wine glasses, cooking basics, and a full set of dishes and silverware. A dining table seats the group comfortably for shared meals, though you are equally well placed to eat out - the neighbourhood is dense with restaurants, chocolatiers, and cafes, many within a five-to-ten minute walk.



Sleeping arrangements

The townhouse sleeps six guests across three bedrooms. The master bedroom is furnished with a king-size bed. The two additional bedrooms each have a double bed. Room-darkening shades, extra pillows and blankets, bed linens, and clothing storage are provided throughout.



Bathroom

A large bathroom serves the house, fitted with both a bathtub and a shower - a combination that works well for groups with varying preferences. Shampoo, conditioner, body soap, shower gel, and a hair dryer are all included.



Practicalities

The townhouse has a dedicated workspace and reliable Wi-Fi - useful if anyone in the group needs to catch up on work during a longer stay. A safe, iron, and hangers are provided, along with essentials including towels, bed sheets, and toilet paper. Smoke and carbon monoxide alarms, a fire extinguisher, and a first aid kit are in place. Self check-in is available via lockbox, and the property has its own private entrance. Paid parking is available off premises. Please note there is no washer or air conditioning on site.



Location

The Markt - Bruges' iconic market square - is a two-minute walk away, putting the Belfry, the main canal boat departures, and the highest concentration of restaurants and shops within easy reach. The wider UNESCO World Heritage city centre, with its museums, chocolate shops, and picture-perfect bridges, is accessible entirely on foot from the front door. For families, the property includes a travel crib, high chair, children's dinnerware, window guards, and baby safety gates.
