"Aubrey" is a unique, charming & centrally located cottage from the 19th century, meticulously appointed to a luxurious standard. Situated in the hearth of Bruges within walking distance of all famous sites, attractions and restaurants, a world-heritage site. This cottage is a typical Bruges house which was recently completely restored to provide all our guest a fabulous stay. It's a fuse of old and new thanks to the well-known architect "Natalie Haegeman."
The two bedrooms and two bathrooms are very spacious and well equipped. Both rooms have king size beds (the second bedroom can have an extra single bed upon request and confirmation) with high quality bedding and linen that allows you to sleep like an angel.
The bathrooms both have a walk-in-shower, lavatory and toilet. To finish off they both have their own dressing to make sure you can hang and easily pick your clothes for any occasion.
Of course, we want you be able to relax and prepare any food if wanted. Therefore we created a harmony and coherent whole in the living, dining and kitchen area for you to enjoy with your friends, family and loved ones. Reading a book, sipping coffee or enjoying a good glass of wine/food without the daily distractions from all prominent multimedia. We did not remove all the multimedia, just minimized them to make sure you'll enjoy Bruges and the house in its full glory.

Guesthouse Aubrey is located in one of the UNESCO inner parts of Bruges where the horse carriages pass the front door. This provides an amazing experience and feel of the history of Bruges.
On a 5-minute walk, you'll reach the cathedral, the belfry, and every other must-see & do. Even closer, on a 3-minute walk is the "Groeninge Museum" which provides a varied overview of the history of Belgian visual art, with top-class paintings by the world-renowned Flemish primitives.
Without good food is nothing possible but luckily these are once again found within a 5/10-minute walk. From Breakfast to Lunch to High Tea or Diner. Belgian waffles, excellent coffee, typical Belgium food, or a top restaurant. All our local and handpicked tips are provided upon confirmation of your booking.
For those who want to do shopping or walk, the location is also excellent as you are once again within a 5-minute walking distance of the canal & main shopping streets.
Need a fresh sea breeze? The Belgian coast and sea can be reached in 20 minutes by car and is one of my favorite things to do after a few days in Bruges.
