Not to get TOO hypertechnical, but that doesn't appear to me to be cobblestone in the rendering. More like a herringbone paver pattern, perhaps even dry-laid (similar to what you find in modern suburban patios, walkways, etc.). Still nice, but not nearly as quaint--or EXPENSIVE--as true cobblestone, or even the mortared Belgian block (both literally and nominally!) in the photo of Bruges you posted:

Just didn't want you to get your hopes up
too much, only to have them cruelly dashed by the ultimate reality.
