Accomodation

The castle was built in 1589. After being abandoned for many years, in 1996, the castle was bought and completely renovated. Outbuildings were built and the park was redesigned.
You will be accommodated in one of the 36 comfortable bedrooms in the castle or in the outbuildings. Each room is equipped with free wifi internet, a television and its own bathroom.


Castle
The historic interiors of the Renaissance palace feature a collection of respectfully-restored furniture which is complemented to individually-designed wooden pieces. The rooms are spacious and each features a different style of décor and an individual color scheme.

The natural beauty of wood combined with delicate pastel shades creates a unique atmosphere in each room. The spacious bathrooms are matched to the character of each room.
