De Lindenhof Restaurant met Suites
Restaurant of a Grand Chef Relais & Châteaux in a park (Giethoorn) Set in the Dutch idyll of Giethoorn, a village built on canals, Grand Chef Martin Kruithof and his wife Marjan de Jonge make it their mission to spoil their guests. De Lindenhof is a thatched-roof farmhouse surrounded by the loveliest of English gardens, where Martin Kruithof creates his classic but inventive cuisine, allowing the flavours of the ingredients to speak for themselves. The cellar is stocked with an exceptional selection of wines, and the wine-room has a cosy environment in which to enjoy an aperitif. Seasonings come from the Lindenhof’s own herb garden, right on the kitchen doorstep. On sunny days, dine on the terrace overlooking the delightful garden and canal. Enjoy a delicious picnic on the restaurant’s riverboat, which can be hired with a captain to tour the picturesque canals. To complete the experience, stay the night in one of the Lindenhof’s two spacious suites.
