Yesterday my husband and I celebrated our birthdays at Cammingha Castle with an afternoon dinner for 33 guests. It was, in a word, fantastic. Our guests and we ourselves enjoyed it immensely. The contact in advance with Merel from the Sales department was excellent and she gave me expert advice. She was always easily accessible (and always cheerful!) when I contacted her with a question, which gave me a good and relaxing feeling in advance. The tables were beautifully laid out in white on the grass, under white square parasols, which looked beautiful upon arrival. The duty manager came to introduce himself nicely in advance and he ensured that everything went well in a natural and sort of 'invisible' way. There was hardly any consultation needed in between, so that my husband and I could fully enjoy our guests and the dinner. The service was also very attentive. Drinks were amply poured throughout the afternoon as agreed. The food was delicious and enough, the dessert (Eton Mess) even exceeded all expectations. The friandises with the coffee were also tasty and fresh. Everything went very well, and the atmosphere was relaxed, cheerful and pleasant, exactly what we had in mind. Our guests also thought it was a great afternoon and that was partly due to the good care of the Cammingha team. My husband and I would like to thank the Cammingha Castle team very much for the unforgettable afternoon!!

Beautiful banquet hall with good staff. Drinks are refilled, delicious fries, chicken and other snacks. You can safely celebrate your party here. Centrally located in the Netherlands and plenty of parking space. An 8!

Celebrated our wedding here. Unfortunately poor communication. Event manager was not professional. Planning was wrong. Economical with pouring. The TV in the honeymoon suite was broken. There was glass on the floor there. Lights were broken. Fitted sheets had holes in them. Staff made a lot of noise in the night.

In this way I would almost forget what is right in front of me! That just goes from Hot to her across the country! And now look! De Beesde Castle / Huize Cammingha. Secretly hidden behind the Estate in Bunnik. A combination of a residential tower, (Kasteel de Beesde), and a later built country house. Cammingha House. Beautifully restored! Silent and calm. Definitely worth a visit. Also used as a wedding location, parties, conferences, end!

Beautiful, spacious place with lots of greenery, a small castle, large party room and various terraces. It's just a pity that the location manager did not follow up on all the agreements the bridal couple had asked for in order to be properly taken care of

Beckov Castle

The Beckov castle stands on a steep 50 m tall rock in the village Beckov. The dominance of the rock and impression of invincibility it gaves, challenged our ancestors to make use of these assets. The result is a remarkable harmony between the natural setting and architecture.

The castle first mentioned in 1200 was originally owned by the King and later, at the end of the 13th century it fell in hands of Matúš Èák. Its owners alternated - at the end of the 14th century the family of Stibor of Stiborice bought it.

The next owners, the Bánffys who adapted the Gothic castle to the Renaissance residence, improved its fortifications preventing the Turks from conquering it at the end of the 16th century. When Bánffys died out, the castle was owned by several noble families. It fell in decay after fire in 1729.

The history of the castle is the subject of different legends.
