This page is all about the hotels we offer as part of our popular Self-Drive battlefield tours.  Some pages make take a minute or two to load.

The most important feature of all these accommodation options is the Self-Drive guide(s) we provide as part of our Self-Drive 'package', for without such a guide one can so easily end up looking at French/Belgium countryside, without having much idea as to what took place back in the Great War.  Please also note that are guides are only available when you book accommodation with us.

We suggest you first read more about what's included in our Self-Drive tours by turning to our 'Self-Drive' tour page, then choose from the below accommodation options which one you would like to stay at.  When you've found the hotel/B&B you would like to stay at please phone or e-mail us for a quotation. 

We try to keep things as simple as possible. You don't need to submit a booking form - everything can be arranged by phone and/or e-mail.

Please note that we only recommend privately owned hotels and guest houses which we have used ourselves visiting the battlefields.

Why not include a personal conducted tour?

We can easily arrange for an independent English-speaking guide to collect you at your hotel and take you (or join you in your vehicle) on a one or two-day tour of either the Somme or Ypres battlefields This will be a truly personal service and as such you will not be joining a group comprising other persons. This option costs a lot more when compared with joining a fixed-itinerary ‘public’ tour, but is by far and away the best way to see the battlefield, especially bearing in mind this may be your one occasion to make the visit you are have in mind.  A personal tour is also better suited for the quiet exploration and reflection of past events, without the possible distraction of others making up your group - and the need for the tour leader to stick to a fixed time schedule!    

The tour we will arrange can easily focus on areas of specific interest to you, such as battlefields where soldiers from any particular country or regiment fought and died (especially helpful for those seeking to explore battlefields where Australians, New Zealanders, Canadians etc saw action).  This service is included in the total cost you will pay, thus making your battlefield visit a seamless experience with everything arranged by us in advance.
