What a beautiful place to stay! Lovely pastoral setting tucked away in the Aalter countryside. Bonus that Andy has goats, deer, and chickens and even peacocks to greet you! Apollonia is a beautiful home with all the amenities you could possibly want, including the most amazing jet tub in the upstairs bathroom. Andy went out of his way to make sure all of our needs were met, including helping us place a pizza delivery order! Breakfast is an optional add-on, but I wouldn’t pass up this opportunity! Andy gets fresh local daily pastries and has eggs fresh from his hens. It is well worth the 15 euros he charges. I loved our stay at Apollonia and will look forward to another stay in the future. Thank you, Andy, for making our stay fabulous. Say hello to Bono from the De Craene family!

There was nothing that we didn’t absolutely love!

A charming property with very interesting decor and artefacts. The host was very welcoming and friendly and gave great recommendations for a local restaurant where we enjoyed a lovely meal. The room was clean, warm and comfortable. The breakfast was excellent with lots of choice and freshly cooked eggs however you liked them. The property is located between Ghent and Bruges and there is a station nearby to allow access to these cities without needing to take the car. There is plenty of free parking at the property.

Nothing, it was all good.

The place is spotless, this is one of the cleanest rooms I've ever booked (and I've been to much more expensive places than this one). The bed was comfortable and the room is quite spacious. We also got to feed the deers that were a little shy at first but warm up real quick when you've got food in your hand haha. Location is really good if you want to go to Bruges or Ghent (same distance more or less for both so we did a double city trip :) )

The only thing that you should watch out for is if you're a light sleeper that in the morning you might hear the other guests if you sleep in as breakfast is being served. Nothing a pair of ear plugs can't fix :)

Stopped here on the way to Germany from the tunnel. We arrived earlier than planned but our room was made up and was able to check in pretty much immediately. Rooms were large and spacious as was the bathroom. Bed was extremely comfortable. Breakfast was amazing. Nice little touches like the honesty fridge in the lounge was very much appreciated. Short walk into town with numerous restaurants and bars. Would recommend.

We were approaching the end of a month long trip around Europe And after spending an afternoon in Ghent we decided to stop at Apollonia as it sounded like it was a lovely countryside location. Perfectly placed for a final day of driving to visit Ostend and Dunkirk. First impressions when we arrived were that it was perfect, and nothing after that disappointed us. The host was really nice, friendly and helpful, our room was amazing and the bed was so comfortable. We had even been left a small bottle of wine and water, and there was a mini bar that had more at a good price. The outside was awesome, mainly because it was surrounded by fields, and the owner had his own animals, two deer, goats, and chickens, these kept me entertained as we love animals, and I felt like a little kid again cooing over their cuteness. There were tables outside to sit at, great for chilling out with a glass of wine and for playing cards. The breakfast was also very good, and not bad for 15 euros. The nearby town of Aalter was worth a visit, but be careful, as the parking seems (as far as we could gather) free for two hours, we stayed 10 minutes to look for a bakery, and when we got back to the car we had a fine for 10 euros (they must have been hiding in a bush). I am sure there must have been some misunderstanding on our part, but we couldn't see a ticket machine anywhere.

Really lovely staff and location half an hour outside Bruge. We were given the family room, which was really spacious, with 2 rooms two showers & loos and a bath in the bathroom which was in between the bedrooms. A very accommodating host. We didn’t have the breakfast but it looked delicious. The spacious communal areas were beautiful and throughout it was spotless.

Andy was very welcoming and explained everything well. The room was big and had one of the most comfortable beds I have ever slept in - fabulous. You could hear some road noise but it wasn’t too bad. Breakfast was ok. Plenty of choice and I had an omelette with eggs from the small holding.

The towels definitely need replacing.

Perfect location for travel to Bruges, Ghent and Antwerp. Very easy to find and convenient. The accommodation was very clean and comfortable and the host made us all feel very welcome! We really loved our visit here - it was the perfect base for our trip!

Owner was very friendly and welcoming. Andy recommended a place to eat and booked a table for us. The rooms were modern and clean and had air con. Lovely complimentary toiletries. Wedding get to have breakfast as we had to leave early.

No coffee making facility in the room and unable to get a coffee before we left early in the morning

The B&B is ideally located outside of town and less than a kilometer from the highway, halfway between Ghent and Bruges, and only 30 minutes from the Belgian coast. Our host was very congenial and accomodating. Our room provided ample space, including a terrace.
