Holiday in Lissewege
Lissewege was once voted one of the most beautiful villages in Flanders, and you'll understand why the moment you visit. In this authentic polder village, time seems to have stood still and everything feels just as it should. The houses in the old village centre have been painted white for centuries, and the 'Lisseweegse Vaartje' canal is a romantic sight in itself. Nestled between the coast and Bruges, with charming streets, whitewashed polder cottages and sweeping fields. It's a wonderful place to wander and cycle through the beautiful countryside.
