Very beautiful area to explore :]
We had the pleasure of spending a delightful afternoon indulging in delectable food and wine tastings. This special event spanned from Thursday to Sunday, attracting a bustling crowd.
Despite the cold temperatures, we were fortunate to have clear blue skies and no rain. The weather seemed to be in our favor, providing a beautiful backdrop for the event.
Despite the busy atmosphere, the experience remained very enjoyable. The large property was decorated with numerous stalls, each offering unique food products, delicious breads, clothing, bags, and, of course, a wide selection of wines. It was a truly pleasant afternoon, filled with culinary delights and a vibrant atmosphere.
As we left the event, a delightful surprise awaited all the women. Each of us received a small present, which added an extra touch to the experience. It was a thoughtful gesture.

Review about beers in souvenir store. Has a souvenir store which sells Kasteel Duivenvoorde beers in a nice 3-pack: blond, tripel, pale ale. Beers are brewed locally, in brewery Cavé Voorschoten (they have their own website). The castle website mentions it but not which beers and if you can buy them to bring home. Very cool and thoughtful as a present for a wedding anniversary, since Kasteel Duivenvoorde is a wedding venue too and used often for wedding shoots. The beer pack shows a large picture of the castle on the back.
Such a splendid estate that carries centuries old history of several families. A castel of love that passes on through the generation. The forest walks and the coffee are also very nice.
Great experience. It is really nice to see the inside of such a beautiful castle. There are a good part of the rooms that are not allowed to visit and I wish they let us go there as well.
Castle Duivenvoorde is a picturesque castle with stunning architecture and beautiful grounds. Although we only saw the castle from the outside, it was still a memorable experience. The castle's grandeur and historic charm make it a perfect place for a leisurely stroll or picnic. In addition, the restaurant on-site is excellent for brunch, serving delicious food and offering a cozy atmosphere. Castle Duivenvoorde is a must-visit destination for anyone interested in history, architecture, and culinary delights.
This castle is a 20-25 minute drive from Den Haag. The estate is located in Voorschoten. During the winter months, the castle museum is not open. However, Musica Antica holds baroque music concerts on the premises and one has access to two of the rooms in the castle.
The rooms are ornate with intricate patterned ceilings and large-scale paintings hanging on the wall. The floor-to-ceiling windows give a stunning view of the estate grounds and lake.
The estate itself also has a restaurant, a small farm area and a pasture. There are many walking paths, both paved and gravel, for longer hikes or walks. One can push a stroller, wheelchair or walker on the paved paths.
The parking lot is paid at times when the museum is open. In the winter months parking is free. The paths are open year-round for walking and exercise.
This is child-friendly and family-friendly. It is a beautiful environment to be enjoyed at any age.
