How to get there
By Car: we are easily reached by car, and have a private (free) parking spot just in front of the boat waiting for you. Gent has a low emission zone so older diesels, beware!
You will receive our address after booking.
By Public Transport: a lot of trains stop at Gent-St-Pieters trainstation. There you can take Tram 4 to the stop 'Brugse Poort'. The boat is a 2 minute walk away from that stop!
By Boat: Yes, if you visit Gent by boat, you can moor right next to us! We are on the 'Brugse Vaart'.
About the area
Our boat is moored as close to the city center as you can get ;-). We are a 10 minute walk from the very city center. It's no use to even try to take a car, given the many pedestrian zones of the Ghent inner city.
That means we are in a quit neighborhood, nothing really fancy just around us, but close enough to the lively, cultural and commercial heart of the city.
Ghent is also a good location to visit other cities around: Antwerp: 70km, Bruges: 45km, Brussels: 70km, Beach (Knokke, Oostende, ..) : 60km.
Houseboat owner
Maarten
I live and work (as a business coach) on this boat myself, in the converted cargo space.
My 4 children grew up here, but are living on their own by now.
The original captain's room and sailor room have been prepared as independent B&B rooms.
