Our tips
Where shall we eat tonight?
During your stay there are plenty of lovely places to discover. Italian food, a long dinner or just a sandwich in the sun.
Most places are within cycling distance. Book dinner in good time, especially at the weekend. Also check the opening hours, as some places are only open in season.
Cycle to dinner
Our top recommendation
Slot Doddendael in Ewijk
A place you really should not miss. At the medieval castle you feel as if you are in another world.
The old castle cellar is home to JEAN Wine & Dine. An atmospheric restaurant and wine bar with refined dishes, Mediterranean touches and special wines. The estate with its moat and its own vineyard is beautiful too.
Lovely for a romantic dinner, a special drink or a culinary afternoon.
