Is there anything that you would like to highlight, add or clarify? The hotel is completely designed in accordance with the principles of the CIRCULAR ECONOMY: - all furniture and lighting equipment were saved from the container and upcycled (except for the beds ;-)), - all doors are reused (from a castle, monastry, brewery, ...) - all table ware and decoration is second hand
We try to use a maximum of SHORT CHAIN products (local production of beer, cheese, ham, tea burned in Bruges, ...) The breakfast contains a lot of HOME MADE products (granola, jams, pan cakes, fruit salad, fruit juice, ...). Our guests get a breakfast list so they can indicate what they like or not, so we AVOID to throw food away.
The planting has been chosen to support maximum BIODIVERSITY (to attract and feed bees, butterflies, birds, ...)
Smoking is prohibited in the whole facility (including the terraces)
We promote the use of PUBLIC TRANSPORT. Guests who uses only public transport (train/bus) get a home made present from us.
