Vrede en Lust Estate

I loved staying in the two bedroom cottage- comfortable, warm and great ammenities

Vrede En Lust was absolutely stunning. The Savoye restaurant where we spent most of our time had an extensive, beautiful menu to enjoy seasonal food by the fireplace and beautiful VNL wines. Staff were extremely accommodating, professional, helpful and friendly. It felt like being a home away from home, which was down to the hospitality and beautiful settings around. Room was very well equipped and comfortable with the nicest toiletries and room spray available there.

Maybe slightly more comfortable chairs on the terrace of the garden room but apart from that everything just perfect and idyllic.

Beautiful setting

Nothing, everything was beautiful

The staff were friendly, lovely pool and food was nice. Staff provided a cot at lunch time.

We booked two of the cottages for Christmas but neither were particularly clean with visible dirt on the floor, cleaning products in a cupboard next to the fridge easily accessible to children. Lampshades broken, tv’s are old and Netflix didn’t work, wardrobes that don’t shut and are also so dangerous for children as can easily fall/be pulled over. Shower flooded the room on the first night, after staff quickly cleared the water and cleaned the drain filter, a manager arrived about 30 min later at this point it was late on Xmas eve and I was trying to get my 2 and 4 year old to bed not to apologise but to ask how I had flooded the room. Finally a swarm of bees outside the cottage, bees in the room on Xmas Eve and we awoke to many outside the door. This again was just not safe for and nothing was done, no one came to speak to us or apologise, suggest to move us. We have stayed at the Vineyard, Alphen and Boschendal and this was very poor in comparison. Needs refurbishment.
