Our stay
We tried out The Secret Garden (the first place we tested for Let's Go My Love!) and came away delighted. It's worthy of a 5-star hotel, but with an intimacy and warmth rarely seen in a luxury hotel. A real secret gem in Bruges.
The house
On the spot, Heidi welcomes you with a big smile. Communication is done in Dutch, French, German or English. The welcome is very pleasant, warm and friendly. When the weather is nice, a welcome drink is offered near the pool.
When you discover the house, you get that feeling of being in the countryside, it's very special. There's a magnificent garden planted with trees, a heated outdoor swimming pool, a private whirlpool bath and 4 luxurious suites, some with fireplaces. The decor includes luxurious furniture, fresh flowers, sumptuous fabrics and antiques from around the world. The atmosphere is unique.

The spa
During the day, there's a private Jacuzzi indoors that you can book for 1 hour, with honesty bar and open fire to relax with your loved ones. Don't forget to book your time with Heidi on arrival. Outside, you'll find a magnificent heated outdoor pool in the heart of an intimate wooded garden. There are deckchairs to relax on. It's a magical place.
Waterfront location
The Secret Garden is located in Bruges, West Flanders, Belgium, on the Groenerei canal. The canal is 400 meters long and starts at the Rosary quay (near the fish market) and ends at the junction of the Coupure and Sint-Annarei canals. The Belfry is only a 5 minute walk away.
The town is the epitome of romance, thanks to its medieval charm. It's like being back in the Middle Ages. Take a romantic stroll through the city outside of the busy tourist season, wander around at random, cross a few romantic bridges and discover the most secret and mystical facets of the Flemish soul.
