“Lovely, heartwarming stay with family like living in the most beautiful neighborhood you can imagine.”
Guido and Ann magically mashed to make us feel like being a part of the family. We had great conversations, meaningful interactions and felt understood the whole time. Breakfasts was individually made and super tasty. Beds were extra comfortable and large. Everything was clean and felt high-quality!

I had a wonderful stay! The owners were incredibly kind and helpful, always ready to assist with anything we needed. The surrounding area is beautiful and peaceful, perfect for relaxing. It was also very easy to get to the city center by bike, which was a big plus. The breakfasts were absolutely delicious – fresh, tasty, and a great way to start the day. Highly recommended!

“Perfect and beautiful in every way.”
The hosts Anna and Guido welcomed us like family and accommodated us extremely well. I am vegan and Anna went out of her way to get special vegan breakfast foods bought for me. Guido extended his welcome in an invitation to watch Euro football along with pizza with his friends when Belgium were playing! Property in an amazing location with easy access to public transport without compromising serenity and peace. Lots of beautiful walks and heaven for cyclists. The garden is beautiful and the pool a blessing as we had temperatures of 29 degrees during our stay. We were sad to leave.

“Perfect stay”
- Breakfast was fresh and delicious, with high quality/self-made ingredients. It's was personalised to our wishes. It couldn't be better. - Otis the dog was awesome and very cute. Couldn't be better. - The beds were perfect (we like the matras to be hard). It couldn't be better. - The interior/design in general was very modern and spacious. Again, it couldn't be better. - The owners were very friendly as well. Highly recommend this place, and if we are in the neighbourhood we'll definitely stop by again.

Guido is a very nice person. It is clear that he wants to give an overall very good service. Personal service. I normally don't write reviews but he deserves it. The location and sorroundings are very nice.

Guido and Ann are just amazing... I felt as if I was at home. Room was super comfortable, fresh breakfast with a good variety of food. Amazing house! I'll for sure go back if I have the opportunity to visit Mechelen again.

“One to book again”
The home is absolutely beautiful with a huge garden with pool to use in the summer. our room had a large free standing bath and normally would have a balcony area to enjoy. it’s within good proximity of Mechelen, Brussels as well as Antwerpen. Breakfast is as outstanding with home made croissants, freshly squeezed orange juice and a wonderful fruit salad. The room comes with a well stocked and reasonably priced mini bar and there is a seating area available downstairs. The owners are on hand to make your stay as comfortable as possible and really make you feel welcome in their home.
