The bunkers at Essex Farm Cemetery are the location where John McCrae wrote the famous poem, "In Flanders Fields".

The bunkers were used as makeshift hospitals where Lieutenant Colonel McCrae tended to the wounded and dying soldiers of World War I.

The cemetery adjacent to the bunkers is the resting place for over 1,000 soldiers of the Great War. The youngest soldier, 5750 Rifleman V.J. Strudwick, aged 15, lies to rest in the cemetery.

"It was perfect for my short stay! The boat offers everything you need in a quiet area of Lille on a 15 min Lime bike ride from the city center. I was the only one staying there, that felt like an advantage too."

"This was our 2nd to last stop on a 10 day holiday celebrating 10 years & what a place to do it in. Peaceful beautiful surroundings with water fowl all around. Fantastic sunrises & sunsets. Definitely worth a visit."
