Reviewed Aug 2, 2026What a wonderful experience! The breakfast was excellent (and homemade, even the juice and yogurt!), the house and grounds were beautiful and the owners were super friendly. We even got travel tips over breakfast, and the host offered freshly baked cake. Definitely spend an evening or two in the garden, it's super peaceful.

Het ontbijt overtreft alle verwachtingen...veel huisgemaakte producten. Jammer dat we niet in de mooie tuin konden vertoeven, omwille van het minder goede weer.

Reviewed Jun 29, 2025Merkem is a lovely village, very quiet. The property is adjacent to the church and has a lovely garden for guest use. We were blessed with fab weather so it was a godsend after a tiring day exploring Ypres and the surrounding area.
The stairs were a bit steep but there’s not much you can do about that. The property is a former rectory and is many years old, albeit in excellent condition. Wim and Els have maintained its ambience.

Reviewed Sep 27, 2024Easy to park outside the large property which has a beautiful garden. From here the owners produce the apple juice for breakfast. The latter was wide ranging and plentiful and of very good quality from homemade jams and yoghurt to locally sources cheese, meat and bread. We also enjoyed the chunks of chocolate! The room was large with lovely ensuite and we enjoyed the local beer (via an honesty bar) which we drank in the guests seating area in the evening.
