Actually a great atmosphere. However, the rooms still seemed a bit dreary. There was little going on in the restaurant - so the atmosphere was a bit ghostly. The service was nice, but you first have to be called out of the kitchen to be assigned a seat. The food was served quickly - good home cooking without any great creativity. Unfortunately, no card payment was possible yet. Difficult if you want to invite 5 people to eat first. The restaurant has a lot of potential that can still be exploited. Definitely room for improvement.

Very nice location where I always like to take a break during my bike tour on the bike path of the former railway embankment. I'm excited to see what the kitchen is like under the new management and will be stopping by for dinner soon. Until then, it's just a freshly tapped Gaffel-Kölsch. Unfortunately there is no longer any wheat on tap. Too bad.

An excellent place to stop for lunch during a bike trip or hiking in the hills. Beautiful grounds (well, it is a golf course, so what do you expect?) with lots of wild life. The old “castle” is housing a nice bistro offering a nice variety of food and wine. Good coffee too! Prices are very acceptable. You would expect higher prices in such a setting. There’s a splendid big terrace with huge parasols offering plenty of shade. I have been 3 times now, and each time it was nice and easy going. Just the way I like it. Service can be a tad slow, but I believe you should not be in a hurry in such a setting.

Walls of Constantinople

The Walls of Constantinople are a series of defensive stone walls that have surrounded and protected the city of Constantinople (today Istanbul) since its founding as the new capital of the Roman Empire by Constantine the Great. With numerous additions and modifications during their history, they were the last great fortification system of antiquity, and one of the most complex and elaborate systems ever built. They were also the largest and strongest fortification in both the ancient and medieval world.

Initially built by Constantine the Great, the walls surrounded the new city on all sides, protecting it against attack from both sea and land. As the city grew, the famous double line of the Theodosian Walls was built in the 5th century. Although the other sections of the walls were less elaborate, they were, when well-manned, almost impregnable for any medieval besieger.
