Make the Landgoedhotel Vennendal your base of operations for a wonderful holiday in the Gelderland province of the Netherlands. A 4 star Nunspeet hotel, it is well located on the edge of the Veluwe forest, a short drive from the Zandenplas lake and the waters of the Veluwemeer. The Landgoedhotel Vennendal began its existence as a large country villa that was damaged by bombs in the Second World War. Purchased by a Dutch couple, it has been renovated and enlarged over the decades to serve first as a boarding house and then as 4-star hotel, run by their descendants. Today guests can enjoy wandering the hotel’s 2 hectares/5 acres of landscaped gardens, swimming in the indoor pool, relaxing in the sauna, or lying in the sun in the solarium. Among the other hotel amenities are a homely library and an all-weather tennis court. A number of modern halls, including a Winter Garden topped by a glass dome, make excellent venues for professional meetings and special events. The hotel restaurant specializes in French-inspired cuisine created from local ingredients. After dinner, you can visit the Scottish-style pub for a coffee or a cocktail in front of the open fire.
