Savelberg
Hotel and restaurant in a park (Voorburg) ‘Delight and Tranquility’ (in Dutch ‘Vreugd & Rust’) is the name of the estate at Savelberg, located just five kilometers from the Hague. You will certainly be delighted by the elegant mansion and enjoy the tranquility of its magnificent grounds, with its ancient trees and well-tended gardens. The wind blowing in from the coast carries the scent of the sea air, a reminder that the beaches are very close by, and sometimes even brings with it a few grains of sand stolen from the bunkers of the neighbouring golf course. The delicate lobster salad Savelberg prepared at the table of the Savelberg’s restaurant for more than twenty years, offers a fusion of flavours. Dining on the terrace while admiring the lovely view of the garden and the Vliet river will heighten this sensory feast. The rooms, decorated in shades of lavender or peach, are like the dishes: colourful and eloquent.
Restaurant De Librije and Librije’s Hotel
Restaurant of a Grand Chef Relais & Châteaux and hotel in town (Zwolle) It took considerable daring to convert a prison dating back to 1739 into a prestigious hotel, but Jonnie and Thérèse Boer have succeeded in creating a very special atmosphere in the heart of the Hanseatic city of Zwolle. Each of the rooms and suites crafted from the old cells features a sophisticated design. Enjoy an evening full of culinary adventures in Restaurant Librije’s Zusje where the kitchen is inspired by the philosophy of Grand Chef Jonnie Boer. In the spring and summer the butlers take guests to the Restaurant De Librije on one of the little boats named after the children of Jonnie and Thérèse, Jimmie and Isabelle. Like the hotel, this 16th century former convent is full of surprises. Jonnie Boer is definitely a free-wheeling chef and his imagination is truly unfettered. Lys offer valid throughout the year except for weekends (“weekend is defined as the period from Friday evening to Sunday noon included)
Kasteel Engelenburg
Hotel and restaurant in the woods (Brummen) Located amidst elegant vistas of landscaped gardens, a golf course and old trees in a private forest, the 100 hectare estate of Kasteel Engelenburg offers unforgettable excursions in this beautiful region. This 19th century castle is a historical monument, with hand-carved fireplaces, high ceilings, period furniture and sumptuous suites that evoke the splendour of bygone days. The restaurant, in a 19th century conservatory with a tropical atmosphere, is an absolute delight, as are the lounge with its collection of 300 Scottish Single Malts, the medieval wine cellar, the pretty rooms and the sumptuous décor of the suites.
Landgoed hotel Het Roode Koper
Hotel and restaurant in a park (Leuvenum (Ermelo)) The Sörensen family warmly welcomes guests to the estate of Het Roode Koper, a mansion once owned by the Count of Dutch-Indonesia. Surrounded by classical English gardens and the lovely woods of the Veluwe, one of the Netherland’s most beautiful and varied landscapes, the 3,000 hectare estate is a wonderful destination for a restorative getaway in an elegant and comfortable setting. Unwind with a round of tennis, a leisurely stroll in the gardens, or a few refreshing laps in the pool. Explore the woods, heaths, water and wilderness by foot, bicycle or horseback – guests can even stable their horses on the premises. On cooler days, curl up fireside with a spot of tea or a glass of wine in the lounge of the main villa.
