Paleis Het Loo in Apeldoorn, The Netherlands. The palace is currently being renovated and will be re-opened in 2021, but you are more than welcome to the gardens, stables, restaurants and our events!
Reviewed By LouiseJ1390 - Denmark, null
We went to see the castle during this Summer's heatwave in Holland. The castle was closed due to comprehensive restoration work, which will end with the opening of a modern museum at the castle grounds in 2021, but the gardens and the rooftop terrace were open. When you're in, a lift takes you to the roof, from where the amazing garden opens in all its splendor. The hedges and flowers in the garden are laid out in intricate patterns, and around the garden you'll find various sculptures in relation to myths and sculptures from classical antiquity. Beautiful fountains dot the grounds, and you can spend quite some time wandering around looking at all the various details in the flowers, sculptures and fountains. The garden is incredibly well kept. The palace is usually closed on Mondays, although there may be exceptions. The price of an adult ticket is 8,5 euro.

We have been to Apenheul before. This time we went with the grand parents and the children a lot older. It was still fun. Whether it is the free roaming squirrel monkeys, lemurs or macaques or the lovely displays of bonobos, orangutans or gorillas, the park is entertaining. In addition, there is plenty of catering. An excellent place to visit, with or without children.

Brilliant place for kids. I am still here at time of writing as we turned up at 9:50 and, having had lunch and a doze, he is still playing. Massive space with areas for toddlers and older kids. Very clean and staff have been great. Fantastic hamburger too. I had to miss a round of golf in the end but I have actually enjoyed my day here. Not sure when we will escape however...
