Amsterdam Schiphol Airport (AMS) is 20 kilometres away, approximately 30 minutes' drive.

Each morning guests can enjoy a Dutch buffet breakfast in the atmospheric dining room, featuring original stained-glass windows, turn-of-the- century dark wood furnishings and a ceiling characterised by exposed wooden beams and Venetian chandeliers.
