    The loveliest guesthouse we've ever stayed in! Kay & Christian are very welcoming and have designed a gorgeous house with the guest's best comfort in mind. The house itself is very unique and from your room (or rather suite) you have a gorgeous view onto the Gravensteen castle and square. The breakfast was super lovely, so I do recommend you having it! I hope we get an opportunity to come back, because this stay was the absolute best!
