De Waldhoorn
About
De Waldhoorn is a rustic farm‑style restaurant located in the forested countryside of the Veluwe, just moments from the Kröller‑Müller Museum. The concept is simple yet elegant: seasonal dishes crafted from locally sourced ingredients in a relaxed setting that feels like dining beside a fire in a secret cottage. In winter the menu turns to hearty game dishes, while spring and early summer offer fresh asparagus, goat‑cheese salads and a vibrant selection of local wines and beers. The service is attentive and friendly, with staff readily explaining the stories behind each dish and the sustainability focus. With a spacious, open‑plan kitchen overlooking the courtyard, diners can watch their meal prepared, adding an element of theatre to an already memorable experience. Guests have noted the amazing breadth of beverage choices: a curated wine list featuring regional classics, a range of local craft beers, and a creative cocktail menu inspired by the farm’s own honey and seasonal produce. The ambience is casual yet charming, with a large outdoor terrace that lets diners enjoy the Veluwe’s natural beauty. Whether you’re a family looking for a relaxed lunch with engaging activities for children, a couple on a romantic date seeking a quiet, rustic setting, or a food enthusiast craving fresh, seasonal, locally sourced cuisine, De Waldhoorn offers a wholesome and authentic Dutch culinary adventure. The restaurant is open seven days a week from 10:00 to 22:00, and reservations are highly recommended for busy weekends and special events such as the winter dinner weeks and puzzle dinners. Overall, De Waldhoorn’s blend of locally sourced ingredients, open‑plan kitchen, and attentive service create a dining experience that feels both convivial and special, making it a must‑visit spot on the Veluwe.
