Overall
A
truly
wonderful
experience.
We
found
this
B&B
on
Google
maps
while
searching
for
accommodation
in
the
area
of
Sint-Sixtus
Abbey
/
In
De
Vrede
Cafe,
as
we
wanted
to
buy
/
try
the
famous
Westvleteren
beers.
The
price
is
truly
a
great
deal
for
what
was
included.
The
room
and
house
was
beautiful,
the
bathtub
with
our
room
was
big
enough
for
two
to
comfortably
relax
in,
and
the
scenery
of
the
place
is
incredible.
The
host
was
very
friendly,
knowledgable,
and
spoke
very
good
english.
The
breakfast
in
the
morning
was
awesome,
most
of
which
(Jams,
Juice,
Vitamin-shot,
etc.
is
prepared
from
scratch
by
the
host
herself
using
ingredients
from
the
beautiful
garden
surrounding
the
house.)
See
below
the
many
photos
of
this
incredible
place
I
took.
If
I
am
ever
in
my
life
back
in
this
region
of
Belgium
(which
I'm
fairly
sure
I
will
be)
I
will
definitely
stay
here
again!
For
the
beer
fans:
This
B&B
is
800m
from
the
famous
Sint-Sixtus
Abbey
where
Westvleteren
is
brewed,
A
10
minute
walk
through
beautiful
surrounding
nature
brings
you
to
In
De
Vrede,
the
cafe
where
you
can
try
and
buy
the
beers
and
food
from
the
monastery.
The
host
has
a
selection
of
other
local
beers
in
a
fridge
as
well,
waiting
for
you
when
you
arrive!
She
was
also
extremely
knowledgable
about
the
area
and
different
must
see
spots
for
beer
lovers
-
she
recommended
us
to
do
a
tour
of
the
St.
Bernardus
Brewery
about
10
minute
drive
from
the
B&B
and
it
ended
up
being
a
highlight
of
our
trip
(Pro-tip:
The
St.
Bernardus
tour
costs
12.50euro,
includes
a
90
minute
tour,
two
beer
tastings
and
a
free
gift
set
consisting
of
4
bottled
beers
and
a
glass,
all
for
the
price
of
the
tour.
Probably
the
best
brewery
tour
deal
you
can
find
in
Belgium.
Not
to
mention...
St.
Bernardus
used
to
brew
the
consumer
version
of
Westvleteren
12
before
rules
for
Trappist
breweries
changed,
so
it
fits
right
into
the
history
of
beer
in
this
region.)
This
B&B
is
also
the
"Pahilleke
Farms"
mentioned
on
In
De
Vredes
own
website
that
produces
jams,
spreads,
etc.
that
the
cafe
sells
in
their
shop.
The
host
also
had
great
recommendations
for
restaurants
that
focus
on
beer
and
food
pairing
in
the
area,
etc.
Really
an
awesome
place
and
experience
for
anyone
wanting
to
stay
in
Westvleteren
for
the
beer
history
and
experience
there,
and
the
host
was
a
great
source
of
useful
"beer-tourist"
information
that
I
hadn't
previously
found
anywhere
else.
