My second visit to the historical estate. The cuisine is worth travelling for (1 1/2 hours in my case). Cozy dining rooms offering nostalgic ambience. Excellent.

Very nice place, but if the owner is behind the counter, run away. Very slow, and rude in addition. No sense of service and respect.

Really nice castle my girlfriends sister took us to to have lunch. Nice personnel, nice atmosphere upstairs, with a fireplace, and great food, especially the Fika! I loved the chocolate cake (one of the best) and the lemon pie was great too. And my toast with cantharels was nice too (a bit hard to find the truffel, but didn’t miss it). The entrance is uphill, so maybe a bit hard for elderly people!

Such a classic setting and dogs are welcome. I absolutely loved it.

Weird vibes within the working environment there, something not right. Crazy prices and the coffee is from a machine where you press a button.... Super nice environment though especially in summer

Gravensteen

The Gravensteen is a castle in Ghent originating from the Middle Ages. The name means 'castle of the counts' in Dutch. Arnulf I (918–965), Count of Flanders, was the first to fortify this place, building a medieval bastion on this high sand dune, naturally protected by the river Leie and its marshy banks. This bastion consisted of a central wooden building and several surrounding buildings, also in wood.

In the early 11th century, the wooden building was replaced by a stone residence, consisting of three large halls that made up three storeys, connected by a stone stairwell. The monumental stone staircase, the light openings, the fireplaces built into the walls and the latrines were signs of considerable luxury and comfort in those days. There was probably also a tower.
