Homey - Kortrijk

Hi, we are Julie and Maarten. Born in 1980. A dream team. But especially a team that dreams and realizes dreams. We got to know each other during our law studies in Kortrijk. Our shared passion for authentic buildings brought us to the purchase and renovation of the mansion where now Homey is also located. Many weekends and evenings to renovate and finish. About 10 years. And in the meantime we also realized 3 kids ;-) ... Annabel, Josefien and Xander. Both of us have the feeling that we already have a well-filled career. Maarten as manager at logistics company Katoen Natie and a full-service event agency. And then as town center manager of Kortrijk and founder / manager of our own company Het Opzet, which merged with Joyn in 2016. Julie as a lawyer and staff member at the Flemish Government. Love for creation, baking delicacies, receiving people and pampering culinary drifted her towards a diploma as a baker but also as a cook at Spermalie. And since the beginning of 2018 we have been building together again our second company Wisely, active in destination marketing and smart city. And now also Homey!

Spacious guest studios with the comfort and privacy of a holiday home, the services of a hotel and the cosiness & homeliness of an authentic B & B. Homey Kortrijk is located in an authentic mansion (dating from before 1850) in the heart of the center city of Kortrijk, West Flanders. Just next to the renewed and lowered Leieboorden, the Broel Towers and the historic city center, the train station, the shopping area, the future new subtropic swimming paradise and the Grote Markt, each time less than 5 minutes walk. (Public) parking can be found cheap and close within a few minutes walking. 3 guest studios (with kitchen) were built on the roof (floor 2). The studios have their own kitchen. Sleep heavenly on the mattress of local sleeping partner Ergodôme, hand made from natural materials in their workshops in Kortrijk. Each has its own bathroom, the studio under the ridge with bath. Each accommodation has a fantastic view over the roofs of Kortrijk with a view of the oldest high-rise building in the city, the White Residence, the Sint-Michiels Church at the rear, the Sint-Maartenskerk somewhat in the distance and the new ultra-modern K-Tower at Buda-Beach.

Homey is a short walk from the station with many connections to Ghent, Lille or Bruges. The street ends a bit further at the river 'Leie' which crosses Kortrijk. A bit further you come across the Broel Towers and you can enjoy the recently lowered river quays 'Leieboorden'. After 2 minutes walking you will find yourself in the middle of the marketplace 'Grote Markt' which is adjacent to the shopping area with the many local hero's retailers and the 30,000 m² shopping center K in Kortrijk. You will also be charmed by the historic center with beguinage.
