Mr Syarda Steers (8/1-2024)

“There is a lot I can say about the house. Let"s start with the positive. It is a very big house that, in our case, easily fitted 13 adults and 9 small children. The house is situated in a green environment close to multiple forests to go for walks and a short drive away from lovely cities such as Gent and Bruges. Our kids loved running around the house and playing in all the different rooms and with the toys and stuffed animals that were present. The kitchen was cozy and had more than enough plates, glasses, cutlery etc. Overall we enjoyed our time together here. However, there is also definitely a lot of room for improvement. First of all, this house is not for the neat freaks among us and that is an understatement. It is filled to the brim with stuff and just isn"t very clean. Apart from the dust, we found old cookies under the beds, candy wrappers in side tables, and dirty cotton swabs. A lot of the mattresses are very old and have holes in them and one of the beds fell apart, literally. You are supposed to bring your own sheets but that also means that the sheets that are already on the bed for protection are clearly not washed between stays considering the hair and stains we found. Finally, about the hospitality, there are notes everywhere around the house directing what guests should or shouldn"t do, and friends of ours who arrived 30 minutes before us together with their two small children were under no circumstances allowed to enter the house before we got there to pay the €500 deposit. So overall conclusion: did we enjoy our stay? I guess we did. Would we advise against staying here? No, I guess not. However, know what you can expect! :-)”

“Beautiful quiet location in nature. Beautiful area for walking in the woods. Warm welcome by the lady of the house. Beautiful large spaces in the style of an "old" country house. Beautiful natural garden. Downside is that some beds deserve new mattresses.”

Mr Ludo Cuypers (3/10-2021)

“We had a very enjoyable weekend. The venue is beautifully situated, and spacious enough for our party. The house is a little dated, but very charming. Bedrooms in good order, no complaints. Plenty of room for the children to play, also outside. For those who like to cook: the oven is great, but we found the fires a bit below par. There were few wine and champagne glasses for a large party, everything else was sufficient.”

Geert Koolen (25/7-2021)

“House where you go back in time and an almost fairytale atmosphere prevails. Nice large private terrace for the sunny hours. Beds slept fine. Beautiful area with lots of greenery and good location, exactly between Ghent and Bruges.”

De heer VERBIEST (18/11-2020)

“Clear easy to use site”

Walter Voets (25/2-2019)

“Friendly welcome, cozy decor with all the trimmings, a bit outdated. Fine environment for walking”

Mr Fabiaan De Couvreur (6/11-2017)

“As we entered the house, we paid our eyes. The house was a museum in itself. Everything was provided and was not possible, we could catch up with Genevieve, the house bazaar. Genevieve was a very friendly woman and very helpful.”

Mr Wim van Kempen (23/10-2017)

“A little exciting a small country road, where "savonds passes by. At the end a parking lot forbidden to call the house called at the house, no hearing .. After walking the owner found .. Everything worth it! Great house, a lot rooms, two large group rooms, a play / sitting terrace.”

Mr Johan Marijt (8/4-2016)

“We have spent the Easter weekend at this residence. You're really going back in time, which gives a warm feeling. The owner of the house is very friendly and very helpful. The mansion is old but very nice highly recommended. The house is very spacious and fully furnished as it was 60 years ago, chandeliers, large paintings and antique furniture. Keep in mind that it's all going according to Belgian standards, short set your requirements and you have a great holiday. I say a must.”

Mr bart desmet (14/11-2015)

“With a group of friends geweest.Voor our group a prachtlocatie.Het house exudes back in time atmosphere op.Eigenares very friendly and spontaan.Keuken may be slightly more complete (eg coffee makers larger and larger dishwasher) .A had splendor weekend and alst fit We will definitely come back.”

Ms C.P.C.M. Vermeer (7/6-2015)

“We've had a lot of fun in our country, made trips to Bruges and Ghent. As "one weekend goes too fast !!!”

Mr J Tiggelovend (13/5-2014)

“We (party of 21pers) find that this property should be. Not let It was not really dirty rather dingy. The garden and the terrace was our feeling for years done nothing. The furniture was old, that in itself is not so bad as we thought, but the plants on the windowsill were at least as old. The lady who rented and also also lived next was again super friendly and very pleasant. No address to make! Advertising”

Ms D.L Depoortere (14/11-2013)

“The kitchen exudes not a luxury, but is very well equipped with very good gas hob and oven. Also nice that you sit at a large, wide table with large group. Large lounge where everyone can sit together. Sleeping area can not say enough, many rooms and lots of beds, but double beds are mainly doubters (120cm). No wifi, only wired internet and then in the hallway on the first floor. With 10 students who do some work for school had a problem. Table tennis is in the garden, sheltered though, is useful but not really more professional (scheefggetrokken by moisture).”

Mr Felix Bianchi (31/1-2013)

“We go every year at the New Year off with a group of friends (12 adults and 8 children, now between 7-13 yrs). This location was daarvor suitable, especially the lovely large dining room where we were seated. Easily with its 12 and 1 table The location is well situated for visiting both Ghent and Bruges. The care around the house fell against (especially given the description on the site). The unexpected costs (related to heating, water, waste tax, etc) fell against better participate in the rent. Most relevant with”

Ms Marjo Diederiks (18/9-2012)

“The large dining room was very suitable for 15 people to eat. In fine weather, relax on the terrace.”

Ms J.G. Van Leeuwen-Verbeek (5/6-2011)

“We had a wonderful weekend with our entire family, which consists of a total of as "one of 25 people existed. The house is fine for as" a big group, but because we had lovely weather we could get a lot out of life. There was no TV so everyone was obliged to entertain some very nice moments entailed, in another way it was old-fashioned fun games doing. Peacock at the house brought a lot of atmosphere and the kids loved the animals around the house beautifully. The only disadvantage was the very dated kitchen and hygiene in the home and kitchen. This was our view far away. Separating waste was very extensive / deliberately done for each waste was a bag / receptacle. Because the house has its own water supply, and therefore one had a quick shower. Sometimes the water stopped just ...”

Mr Lucia Boeren (18/3-2011)

“It was a pleasant stay in a beautiful, quiet house. The area lent itself perfectly to medium walks and proximity to Bruges and Ghent offered the opportunity to visit these cities.”

Mr Sian Newton (3/1-2011)

“We had a great time at Reedpool. We were four families with teenage children. Plenty of room for 17 of us. Large atmospheric house. Plenty of places to visit nearby.”

Mr GB Van de Langkruis (26/4-2010)

“We were here mid-week with the family. (April) Age 56-76. It is a fantastic house with lots of atmosphere. A (small) downside is impractical kitchen, where we actually have the humor have recognized. The location of the house is beautiful tranquility and beautiful nature. Also the terrace we enjoyed amazing. We hiked, biked, and one day to Bruges before. The upper floor is noisy, not a disaster for a few days. A must!”

Mr Coulon (26/1-2010)

“We had a great stay at the villa "reedpool"; very welcome from the owner, the premises provide an environment conducive to relaxation, the house full of furniture or "family heirlooms is warm despite the very low temperatures of the weekend of December! return We would discover places on sunny days!”

Ms J.C.W. Taal (1/12-2009)

“an ideal house for large groups, beautiful gardens and natural surroundings, the many rooms and large living areas provide plenty of privacy even in large groups. The house would also be good to use for business purposes. bvEen days brainstorming with a club mensen.Trainingen etc”
