Inside your apartment, you’ll find a fully kitted-out apartment with a bedroom, living space, and kitchen. There’s a bathroom with a bath, free WIFI, and a glorious garden to wake up to each morning.

Nuts Cocoon: A Fairytale - Bastogne

Nuts Cocoon is beautiful year-round: covered with a dusting of snow in the colder seasons and filled with bright sunshine and blue skies during the warmer periods. This fairytale bedroom is a perfect getaway both inside and out, with room for two people and plenty of opportunities to have a magical stay in Bastogne. Nestled in this charming 17th-century castle with a historic past, you’ll appreciate both the majestic beauty of the private park that surrounds it and the stunning setting inside. While the Airbnb listing is for one room only, the owners are rarely at the castle. This means there’s a fair to reasonable chance you can be king of the castle for a few days yourself! A jacuzzi and home automation system ensure this historic castle easily keeps up with modern-day technology and comforts.

Master Bedroom in a Historical Castle - Brugge

There aren’t many castles quite as wondrous as this one and that’s something more than 200 previous guests can agree on. A place that looks like something more out of a Disney movie than a real-life Airbnb, it’s a seriously large historic building complete with turrets, towers and everything in between. This is your chance to stay in a real castle in Bruges only 4km from the old town, which means a brilliant balance of exploring and relaxing. The room itself, designed for two guests, is far more modern than a first look would suggest. Ideal for anyone who wants a castle setting without the traditional castle detriments, you’ll feel right at home pulling back the large curtains each morning or settling down into the soft white bed at night. Wander around the rest of the place to discover incredible drawing rooms, an unspoiled lake, and the chapel balcony.
