Fine dining in Delft. In the old artillery school complex, just across the road from the apartment, is this gem of a restaurant. Maitre Dennis and his team will look after you with panache, serving delicious morsels. Check out the wine cellar.

A small gem that is open for dinner one night a week. Small settings, traditional Italian food, and, if you are lucky, terrific jazz.

Who said good chocolate comes only from Belgium? This one here is also very good and you can watch the chocolatiers going about their craft. Add to that Delft's best ice cream and you simply cannot go wrong!

The Delftse Hout is a wonderful area with canals, lakes and dense forest. Perfect everytime of the year for a walk, the lakes invite for a swim in summer. The Delftse Hout is a casual 10 min walk away from the apartment.

Be seen in Delft's coffee scene

Feel like good coffee and cake in a relaxed atmosphere? Then check out Kek in the heart of Delft, right along a canal. It is so good, you may have to wait a little for a table. But the wait is worth it. Order the Baked Fruit Crumble with creamy Greek yoghurt on the side. THAT perfect start to the day. And Kek is located next to Vermeer‘s birthplace and his Guild!

In da hood!

The apartment overlooks Delft's Paardenmarkt. Lined with national monuments, including the old artillery school in which the loft is located, Paardenmarkt is in the center of Delft, a casual 5 min walk from the central square. The area is hip, with great restaurants and bars.

A bit about where you are

Delft is a special city in the Netherlands. Its historic centre dates back to the 13th Century. It is The Netherland's Royal City. Willem of Oranje held court in Delft and he is buried in the Nieuwe Kerk (1584). The church remains the final resting of all members of the Royal Family since then. The Oude Kerk (1325 - 1350), with its famous leaning tower, is witness to the Golden Age of Delft and the Netherlands. The famous Dutch Buccaneers (Zeehelden) were laid to rest here, as was the painter Vermeer. His painting of the Oostport (in this image) is as renowned as his painting of the Girl with the Pearl Earring. Delft has it all -- history, beautiful old buildings, canals, a young and vibrant atmosphere that centers on good coffee and food. Come and enjoy it!

Those great stretches of sand and water

The stretch of beach between Scheveningen harbour and Kijkduin is called Zuiderstrand. A vast stretch of sand invites all sorts of activities, from sun baking to BBQing on the beach and of course swimming. There are very nice beach restaurants as well, serving good food and wine for a relaxed afternoon in the sun.

Plenty to see!

My old workplace! The seat of important courts and tribunals, the Peace Palace is the legal heart of Den Haag, the City of Peace and Justice. Enjoy the beauty of the building, listen to the play of the Carillion, and read up on history of this extraordinary place in the Visitors' Centre.

This "new" church, built in the 14th century, is a magnificent example of Dutch craftmanship at the time. The church is the burial site for the Dutch Royal family reaching back to Willem of Oranje. Also buried in the church is Hugo van Grotius, founding father of international law. Enjoy the beautiful art and sculpture work and learn all about the Dutch royal family.

The "Oude Kerk", also known as the "Oude Jan" or the "Scheve Jan" is the older of the two churches in Delft. Its history reaches back to 1246. While still an actively used church, it is also a museum. The Dutch "Zeehelden" or Buccaneers are buried here and there are plenty of fascinating stories about their exploits. Also buried in this church is Jan Vermeer, painter of the famous "Girl with the Pearl Earring" which is exhibited in the Mauritshuis in Den Haag. When looking at the tower of the church -- can you see how it leans? It is said that its angle is more than that of the leaning tower of Pisa.
