Come spend the night in a renovated flax factory
In the rural outskirts of the city of Kortrijk, we completely renovated a 19th century flax factory.
Everything was respectfully restored to its original state from the glory days of old.
Important historical pieces were retained and refurbished, e.g. the old chimney in the garden and the impressive steam machine dating back to 1884.
You’ll be staying among a beautiful piece of industrial history.
On this domain, former flax retting pits were rebuilt and the adjoining warehouse provided a great space for two more B&Bs. The whole consists of 3 separate entities.
AMENITIES
BED & BREAKFAST
Each B&B comes with:

Biking & Hiking
You’ll be staying in a true hub for cyclists and hikers: there are several cycling routes in the area, and 100 metres from the B&B passes one of many routes you can follow along or near the Leie river (fietsroutes). You can also go for a hike -or just a pleasant stroll- around the neighbourhood or the provincial domains nearby: De Gavers and Bergelen.

At the end of our quiet street there’s a baker’s shop, a butcher’s shop and a snack bar.
