Very nicely located castle with a beautiful park to linger. We went to the restaurant for lunch and had the castle menu. All courses were very tasty and beautifully presented. Our seat right by the window offered a beautiful view. Only the prices for the water are exaggerated. That shouldn't be the case.

We went for lunch and had the castle menu. The food was fabulous and the waitresses were very friendly and attentive. We liked the atmosphere. A big compliment to the entire restaurant crew. Before dinner we went for a walk in the beautiful park. We can't rate the rooms because we only went out to eat.

Rustic castle hotel with a magnificent view. Rooms largely furnished with antique furniture. Due to the structural conditions, the bathroom may be quite small. If you don't like the ball beetle that comes out at night in the summer but doesn't otherwise bother you, this might not be for you. Good restaurant.

If you like old fashion rooms with lots of dark wood, this is really castle-like. Unfortunately it wasn't my case. Be careful with a starter with goose liver. The plate was beautifully garnished with passion fruit cream, buttermilk rings, only the liver was a touch in between. More of a dessert than an appetizer. The wedding dinner was great. Great prawns, very good consommée and top pink Angus steak. The wines were great, but the food was also chosen by the wedding couple. Overall, a very nice hot day, which at least took place in cooled rooms in the evening. This was missed at the outdoor events in the castle courtyard (reception and coffee and cake) at around 32 degrees in the shade. Conclusion: great wedding in old walls with a good main meal.
