Mini Cruises To Bruges
Despite not having an airport, a direct port, nor an international railway station, it's actually pretty easy to enjoy a break in Bruges. The mini cruise options from the UK include Southampton and Hull departures depending on if you live in the north or the south.
You'll find there is also a difference in facilities on board with the Hull option being a P&O overnight ferry, while the Southampton to Bruges mini cruise being a full service P&O cruise liner which may also stop at one or two other ports during the itinerary.

Mini Cruise to Bruges From Southampton
A mini cruise to Bruges from Southampton will generally be on one of P&Os large cruise ships, offering a wealth of facilities like swimming pools, sports courts, gym and spa facilities, as well as kids clubs and plenty of social activities for the whole family.
These cruises may also stop at other destinations like St Peter Port in Guernsey or Amsterdam before docking in Zeebrugge where a range of daytrip excursion options will be available to visit and explore Bruges. 2-5 night mini breaks are available from Southampton which visit Bruges/Zeebrugge.
Other companies that also depart from Southampton and have itineraries that include Belgium are Celebrity Cruises, MSC and Cunard (which has a bit more of a grown up, elegant feel). If you're a first time cruiser, it's important to choose the right ship for you and your group. If you're a family with young kids, for example, Cunard won't be for you, and similarly if you're an older couple who likes more of a relaxing holiday, a vibrant Royal Caribbean ship might not be to your taste.
