La Dolce Vita at Marquette Estate | August 14th to 16th, 2026

Give us a long table, Italian food, a beautiful estate, and a summer evening that seems to last forever. That's all we really need.

This is precisely the atmosphere that prevails at La Dolce Vita on Landgoed Marquette. For three days, the castle gardens are transformed into a place where everything revolves around good food, stimulating conversation, and above all, pure enjoyment. No hustle and bustle, no rigid schedule. Simply take a seat, pour yourself a glass of wine, and enjoy the evening in complete relaxation.

On Friday, August 14th, and Saturday, August 15th, we cordially invite you to a sumptuous four-course meal. On Sunday, August 16th, a lavish Italian lunch awaits you. Not a buffet, but a communal meal. Large platters of Italian delicacies will be on the table, and everyone can help themselves as they please. Just like on holiday in Italy.

Honestly? The long tables under the trees alone would be reason enough for us to make a reservation.

As the sun slowly sets behind the castle, glasses are refilled and the evening flies by. You don't have to travel to Tuscany to experience this feeling. Heemskerk is surprisingly close.

Why this appeals to us so much

We love trips where you don't have to rush from one activity to the next.

Simply a beautiful place, good company, and food where you can take your time. No tight schedule, but an evening that unfolds naturally. Perhaps that is the true meaning of "la dolce vita" .

5 interesting facts

1. You don't have to travel to Italy to get that holiday feeling. Sometimes a castle garden in Heemskerk is all it takes.

2. Sharing a meal is secretly much more enjoyable. Everyone helps themselves to what they want, and before you know it, the whole table is laden with delicious food.

3. This evening shouldn't be rushed. Don't book right before another appointment. You probably won't want to go home yet.

4. An extra glass of wine? Go for it! Some evenings you just want to enjoy a little longer.

5. Perhaps the most romantic setting of the summer. Long tables, old trees, a castle in the background and Italian food... it's hard to argue with that.
