B&B Le Coquin is pleasantly situated along the quiet canal Brugge-Damme where tourists can enjoy walking, running, cycling or taking the leasure boat ‘De Lamme Goedzak’ to absorbe the green, peaceful surroundings of the Flemish ‘polders’. The B&B is just outside the city centre of Bruges and a pleasant 20 minutes walk along the Bruges canals takes you to the old centre with Belfort and historic buildings attracting tourists from all over the world. The B&B owner Alain really puts his heart and soul in his personalized home, welcoming his guests with his genuine smile, offering cosy bedrooms - we chose the family room with terrace overlooking his garden with blossoming cherry tree - and above all offering a delicious breakfast. We stayed for one week and a few times Alain served light blue boiled eggs which we thought were coloured Easter eggs but in fact they were natural eggs from his own Araucana hens - wonderful! Alain has a welcome sign that says: ‘We travel to come home’, well, that says it all: we felt at home in Alain’s B&B, it was the second time we stayed there and will definitely return. Highly recommended B&B 🤩

Nothing

We could park in the yard without extra charge. We had a nice chat with the host, and he gave us some good tips. We had bicycles, and the host gave us a cleaner liquid to get my rusty bike-lock working again. The environment of the place is really nice, the kanal is in front and behind there is a new and affluent suburbian neighborhood. The things in the room and the house were a bit oldish but everything functioned.

The breakfast was OK, but I would have loved an egg and some cucumber or bell pepper added to the options. Because it is difficult to offer things that everybody likes, maybe there could be option A or B that the guests could choose in advance.

It’s not perfect. It’s not central. It has drawbacks. But it has a soul that you fall in love with. The owner goes out of his way to make you feel comfortable. It has inexplicable charm that sticks to you. The walks to the city were refreshing and picturesque. We would normally come back in Uber for 11 euros from Chocolate Factory. If I ever come back to Brugge I would stay here again. I hope you will love this place like we did.

In our room big bed had two mattresses rather than one which would make it more comfortable

The breakfast provided was varied and enjoyable. Lots of nuts and grains were provided as well as pastries , breads and cereals. The host was on hand to cook eggs if required. We had our own key to the front door to come and go as we pleased. It is possible to walk into Bruges from the property along the canal, past windmills and along streets you wouldn't otherwise see.

The access to the private road was not easy to spot when we first arrived .

Great geographic location. Just in front of the Brugge-Damme canal. B&B very quiet and very relaxing. Car traffic is limited to residents and guests of the B&B, so hardly any cars. The owner, Alain, is very friendly. The B&B is very welcoming, very well decorated, with a lot of sensitivity and personality. A beautiful journey through time. You can walk to the center of Brugge in 30 minutes and in 8 minutes by bike. The breakfast offered is of good quality: fresh products, varied products for all tastes. A great stay, a great experience.

One of the mattresses might feel a bit uncomfortable depending on your weight.

Excellent host, Alain, friendly, approachable and eager to please. Comfortable triple room for couple and sister, which was quiet with great shower. Breakfast has a huge choice of breads, cakes, cereals, eggs, meat and cheese - all fresh and tasty. Very efficient WiFi.

We liked everything really. Lovely quiet and private surroundings by the river. Nevertheless, close enough to access the city centre on foot. Spacious room for a family of three, with all facilities and comfort in place. The complimentary, secure parking space was a big plus. Alain, the owner was very friendly and kindly offered to pack our breakfast as we had to have an early departure. I warmly recommend this accommodation, we would definitely return! Bruges was impressive, it exceeded all my expectations.

Nothing to comment.

We loved the place and the host. The house and the room were really cute with all what we needed. Very nice breakfast in a very nice dinning room. Alain took good care of us and helped us with our questions regarding our stay in the city. The house was in a very nice and quiet place near the river and close to the city. We enjoyed our stay there and i recomend it for sure.

Thank you Alain for making our stay so wonderful. Lovely fresh breakfast, spacious room with a very comfortable bed, quiet location with easy access to the city. Loved the conversations - dank u wel!

It took me a few goes to unlock the door but that was my poor technique!

Alain was a superb host, suggesting places to visit and places to eat. Le Coquin was a little difficult to find being situated along the canal path but once there it was lovely and quiet especially as it was hot and we had the bedroom window open. Breakfast was delicious with plenty of choice and typically continental. Alain's own mix of coffee was delicious. The walk into the centre of Bruges took about 20 minutes.
