We (three cyclists) spent three nights at Varlet Farm and were delighted with all aspects of our stay. The hospitality shown by Dirk and his daughter, Barbara, was first class. Nothing was too much trouble. The accommodation and food were excellent and we would not hesitate to recommend Varlet Farm to others.

We enjoyed four nights at Varlet Farm. Our first was spent in the self-contained suite within the farmhouse, with two bedrooms sharing a bathroom and sitting area. All very comfortable. The next night we moved into newly modernised rooms in the main part of the B and B. Everything was spotlessly clean, with an excellent shower. It's incredibly peaceful here... More

On a previous review I mentioned that Varlet Farm was being sold, this information came from a reliable A1 source!! I have recently found out that this info was wrong and are happy to set the record straight. The farm is still being run with excellence as standard, and look forward to many more enjoyable visits.

We are 9 mature motorcyclists (Barnburgh Bodgers Club). All 9 machines were safely housed in the barn, then apple pie & tea/coffee as a welcome from Dirk who is the perfect host: very knowledgeable and friendly but not intrusive. Everything about this accommodation is excellent, the only downside was we didn't spend more time there! If you need B&B in... More

Just returned from a 2 night stay at Varlet Farm with a party of 4 in the family room. This was the third time I have stayed there and it's nice to report the standards have not slipped at all. Warmly greeted on arrival by Dirk with coffee and apple pie it was like returning home. The family room was... More

we chose Varlet Farm because of its central location to many of the key memorials such as,Sanctuary Wood, Tyncot and the Menin Gate. We found the farm which is just outside St Julian with ease. We were met by Dirk, who has lived all his life on Varlet, which is an authentic working farm. His family really got into bed... More

Just perfect! Perfect accommodation Perfect location Perfect food Perfect hosts We were a party of 14 and could not have had a better stay in any 5-star hotel. Dirk and his family are the most welcoming generous people anyone would wish to meet. Their warm hospitality made our visit to Belgium extra special. Dirk's apple pie is to die for... More

No where could be better to explore the WW1 battlefields and Ypres than this farm house. Dirk was the perfect host with apple pie on arrival, a tour of his museum and an honesty box approach to a very fine selection of Belgium Beers from a well stocked fridge. Quiet, large bedrooms and a breakfast which delighted my son by... More

My family and I visited Varlet Farm for 4 nights and wished we had booked for several more days. The welcome tea and cake were wonderful after a long day of touring. Dirk gave us a great overview of the area as well as tips (including a discount booklet) about the best things to see and generously allowed us to... More
