I got these information of a neighbour of this castle.
History;
The castle was around 1328 called "Cate Line", the first known owner, Catelyne Coudeceucken. The castle is fully equipped with a basement. In 2005 the estate was sold by public city Bruges. The castle was completely restored by the new owners in 2006 and was renamed "the Chateau Beau Sart". The ground floor is now used as restaurant and banquet hall, on the upper floors are private apartments and hotel rooms.
I wish every visitor a nice weekend.

This one really is beautiful and I like the way you show it here. The low point of view emphasizes this building very well. I also like the contrast between the autumnal surroundings and this gorgeous sky. I would like to step into this picture now ...

Goedemorgen John,
De herfst is duidelijk in volle gang bij jullie. Ik heb hier nog niet zo heel veel kleuren gezien omdat ik geen tijd heb gehad/gemaakt om rond te kijken.
Een mooie compositie met vele roodtinten. Heb je hier gebruik gemaakt van een hoge iso waarde of een andere bewerking uitgevoerd op het kasteel, het lijkt zo grofkorrelig?
Goed weekeinde,
Harko
