Nothing

Erik and Hilde are exceptional hosts. Not only was the place spotless, the breakfast top notch but it was also nice and quiet. They gave us tips for parking in Brugge, good spots to visit and they were very friendly. On top of that they are LGBTQ+ friendly and made us feel very well taken care of. Would recommend them to anyone looking for a great place to stay. Thank you for having us!

Not a criticism, just an observation - different to Germany, there is one large duvet for two people. Excellent location if you are travelling by car or if you enjoy cycling, but maybe a bit out of the way if you are relying on public transportation.

This is a wonderful B&B, very clean and very quiet. The breakfast is excellent, the hosts are super friendly and attentive, and it's a great location between De Haan and Bruges. There is a lovely patio and garden which guests can use and just outside the room are coffee/tea facilities and a small fridge. Parking is free and readily available. We were given maps and tips on where to visit, which was really helpful. Things I personally liked: really comfortable bed and pillows, fluffy towels, great water pressure in the shower, exceptionally clean.

The rooms where very well equiped and clean! The location is in a small town, but perfectly situated between brugge/oostende and knokke! All around 15 km drive, so more than enough to do! Eric and Hilde the owners where super friendly and helpfull, and organised a very tastefull and beautifull breakfast, with as an extra regionall products! All very delicious!! For sure we are going to visit them again!!!

Very friendly owners, felt very welcome in their home, easy communication, breakfast was lovely. Got some great recommendations to visit in Bruges. We would definitely go back if we need to be in the neighbourhood of Bruges again.

The wifi was hard to get working (there is a difficult to use splash screen), but we weren't there much to use the internet.

Erik & Hilde were the best hosts ever - so friendly, caring and excited to tell you all about their local area. They also speak many languages so can cater to all travelers. The rooms were lovely and well outfitted. The breakfast was AMAZING and showcases delicious local and homemade goods. The location is great in a peaceful rural town, just a short drive to the beach or Bruges. Plenty of free street parking.

Excellent experience! Hilde and Erik were incredible friendly, helpful and really made us feel welcome. Next to the beautiful house, breakfast including great tips to explore the region was definitely a highlight!

Very nice place to stay here with family and great biking routes.

This is by far the best B&B I have ever tried. Every detail you would think of has been above expectations. The house is typical for the region, our room was cosy, confortable and spotless clean. The breakfast was royal, with local and homemade products. I loved Hilde's jams and the ham salad! But the best thing with this B&B are the hosts Erik and Hilde. They truly make you feel like home. Their warmst, their kindness and the discussions over a coffee on the terrace are what B&B is all about. Erik gave us advice on the things to do in the region, the farms where we could buy local cheese and the best icecream place. Our stay with them was just perfect and would love to come back soon.

Stayed in July 2023

The host was 1st class, the accommodation 1st class, the continental breakfast excellent with great variety. We have been using B&B for short breaks for the past 40 years in the UK and Europe this is by far the best we have used. Thank you Erik and Hilde.

I guess the only one thing we didn't like is that we didn't plan our trip to stay longer. But now we know and can plan a longer stay. Even though there is not an elevator, Eric insisted on carrying our bags up the stairs. He wouldn't take no for an answer.

Wonderful stay at Waterput 1 B&B! Oh my goodness! Our hosts, Eric and Hinde were very warm, welcoming, friendly, gracious, giving; I could go on and on. But instead staying with them is a great experience that you will tell your friends about it so that they can experience it themselves. It is hard to believe that we were their first Americans to stay with them. Not sure why, other than others didn't do their research and find this diamond of a B&B.

We have been here for the second time as everything is better than you can imagine but the best thing is the breakfast. No hotel can do the same. Don't eat anything in advance and don't plan lunch in an expensive restaurant! From Flemish liver pate to Hilde's homemade jams, from Eric's fresh fruit salad to Belgian pastries, from French Croissants to Dutch chocolate sprinkles, Eric and Hilde are the nicest host you can imagine. They always go the extra mile (thanks for lending us -for free- your E-bikes!!) Furthermore, the dining room is a place where people meet from all over the world. It is an experience in itself. Don't think twice! Just go!

Hosts were very kind and open to help us finding the best place to visit in Brugge or at the sea shore. The breakfast was magnificent. We have got choclate and beer from our host.

It's just that I couldn't stay longer.

Absolutely exceptional hosts Erik and Hilde run the perfect B&B. The rooms are cozy and well furnished. Everywhere is clean and pleasant. The breakfasts are royal and locally sourced. The pastry is especially excellent. E&H also deliver their products to the table ( yogurt with fresh fruit and cereals its from Hilde is 1**** and Erik's zucchini block 1**) If possible, I will definitely come again.

Wonderful hosts, warm, friendly and very welcoming. Room is super clean, very good bed, shower and facilities. Very quiet and very beautiful house and the best is breakfast better than in a 5 star hotel, thank you Erik close to Brugges and De Haan

There was nothing we didn't like.

Very comfortable, clean and a lovely place to stay. The room was large with a little annex where one could sit and read if desired. The hosts were available to answer any queries and were very helpful. The bed was very, very comfortable and the location quiet. Breakfast was excellent and the local restaurant, in the village, was fantastic.

Erik and Hilde are extremely friendly, caring and helpful hosts! We enjoyed the comfortable apartment, the atmosphere, the unrivaled breakfast and the nice talks with other guests and hosts a lot!
