Very close to Utrecht is this lovely 18th century fairytale castle which belongs to the Van Zuylen family. For the most part of the year, this castle is accessible to the public.
I would suggest a visit in autumn. The castle gardens are spectacular!
Activities which are scheduled for 2009 are the following:
1) Elves Fantasy Fair on 25-26 April 2009 - the biggest fantasy fair in Europe where visitors can come dressed as knights, elves, pirates, roman soldier, etc.
2) Italian Night at the Castle on 15-16 May 2009 - the stable will be transformed to Piazza Grande Festa for 2 Italian nights. Visitors can enjoy Italian spices and spirits as well as music from top Italian artists Alessandro Safina and Fiorenza Calogero.
3) The Flavors of Italy on 15-17 May 2009 - 3-day event where the castle's park and gardens will be the center of the biggest Italian event in the Netherlands.
