Luxurious stays in a historic trading house

A comfortable stay in the centre of Bruges

Enjoy a luxury room with breakfast

Welcome to

B&B Histoire de l'éclair

Bed and breakfast 'L'histoire de l'éclair' is located in an authentic 13th century trading house in the beating heart of old Bruges. The lovely property was recently renovated and equipped with all contemporary comforts.

The property houses three intimate and luxuriously furnished guest rooms. Because of the small scale of the B&B, you are treated as a very special guest at L'histoire de l'éclair. As a guest you have access to a beautiful outdoor terrace overlooking the Belfry of Bruges, a cosy lounge area with honesty bar and a breakfast room where it is great to start the day. Every morning, the hostess will serve you a lovely continental breakfast with a glass of bubbles.

You stay in the middle of the historic centre of Bruges, surrounded by monuments, museums and the water of the mysterious city canals. It is easy to explore Bruges on foot from the B&B as all the sights, restaurants, bars and shops are close by within a few minutes’ walk.

Legend of the

éclair

Old stories and legends circulate about many places in Bruges. The adjacent house accommodating the bed and breakfast also has a remarkable story, namely the legend of 'Coudenbrouc' and the éclair.

Like most legends, the story of Coudenbrouc House is a mixture of historical elements, colourful characters and superstition. The legend is linked to the beautiful facade stone from 1518 and mentions the creation of the prototype of the 'éclair' in Coudenbrouc House. The legend also refers to the lightning - éclairs - that shot out of the trousers of a Spanish nobleman when an attempt was made to burn those trousers after it was feared that the nobleman who had been staying in the house for some time was the devil. The ensuing fire completely destroyed the old wooden house.

Unfortunately, we do not know what this 16th century 'éclair' looked like, nor is the recipe known. The éclair we know today is a French creation from 1850 but no less delicious. During your stay in our B&B, we invite you to enjoy a delicious éclair.
