THE STORY: Two streets away from the historic center of Bruges, right near the Sainte-Anne church, you’ll find the Nocture guest house, Lisa De Kezel’s personal refuge. In this imposing whitewashed house, three bedrooms and suites play with light and darkness – dark green mosaic tiles, black walls, big windows… One bedroom boasts a balcony and an enormous bathtub, the two others come with massive tiled showers. All three offer beautiful views of the city or the interior garden. Double rooms starting at €152 a night. //

TOILETRIES: The White Company body wash, shampoo and conditioner.

BREAKFAST: They don’t serve breakfast.

LITTLE LUXURY: The goose-feather duvets that are as light as air.
