On our first visit to the Belgian coast, we felt at home immediately in this cosy flat with view of the sea, above the smart shopping street of Nieuwpoort-Bad. Very completely furnished and bathed with light until sunset, this apartment was warm and relaxing during the cold weather outside. Kitchen, shower room and bedroom had all necessities as well as generous storage. Veerle was there to welcome us, explaining all the best places to eat (take-away of course) and shop, and about the rich if sad history of Nieuwpoort, the town at the northernmost end of the WW I front line. We made several circuits by bike and walking, and were astonished by the nature so close by in the many wild areas and parks in this unique dune land, and only a few steps from Albert 1 Laan, the chic place to shop and eat (when possible again!). We felt sad to leave the wide open spaces of Nieuwpoort's beaches, and will certainly come back here.
