DRAGSHOLM SLOT
About the Castle Hotel
Dragsholm Slot, Horve - A Noble Retreat by the Fjord
Steeped in history and radiating a quiet grandeur, Dragsholm Slot presents itself as a distinguished member of the Relais & Châteaux family. This 13th-century castle, set within lush parkland and a mere stone's throw from the coastal charm of Nekselø Bay, offers an escape that feels both timeless and remarkably relevant. It is, without question, a place to soak in the essence of Danish coastal life, with an assured sense of place that few properties can match.
Location
Positioned in a tranquil rural setting, Dragsholm Slot is a world away from the urban clamour, yet within a manageable 100 km drive from Copenhagen. Its proximity to Nekselø Bay and the beach, just a ten-minute walk away, invites exploration of the area's natural beauty, including Nekselø Bugt and the scenic Havnsø Playground. For those with a penchant for the links, Odsherred Golf Club is readily accessible, as is the charming Havnsø Marina, a short drive away. The castle itself stands as a beacon in its own right, a mere half-kilometer from its historical namesake.
Style and Character
This ancient castle offers a rather distinct character, where history is palpable. The bright rooms, many featuring high ceilings, evoke a sense of the past, while the modern updates ensure comfort. A terrace and garden provide serene spaces for contemplation, and the chance for guided castle tours upon request adds a layer of historical immersion. It's a property that wears its centuries with a dignified grace.
Service and Facilities
Dragsholm Slot manages its affairs with a professional hand, providing guests with the conveniences expected of a Relais & Châteaux property. Free Wi-Fi access and complimentary private parking are standard. Guests seeking indulgence can treat themselves to a massage or other spa services, or simply relax with a cocktail on the fjord-view terrace. Room service is available, offering a touch of comfort for those who prefer to dine in. The property also offers the unique amenity of an attached winery, a delightful addition for oenophiles.
Rooms
The 34 rooms at Dragsholm Slot are designed to offer comfort and a connection to the castle's heritage. While specific room categories vary, most provide amenities such as free Wi-Fi, safes, and complimentary bottled water. Several rooms are appointed with a seating area, ideal for unwinding, and some offer extra space along with bathrobes. The décor often features wooden floors, complementing the castle's inherent charm. Notably, some double rooms are equipped with bathrobes and seating areas, ensuring a comfortable stay.
Food and Drink
Dining at Dragsholm Slot is a celebrated affair, with two distinct onsite restaurants that champion seasonal ingredients, many sourced from the hotel's own herb garden. Restaurant Slotskøkkenet offers a fine dining experience, while Lammefjordens Spisehus provides a more informal setting. Guests can also enjoy local cuisine and more at these establishments. The Dragsholm Slot Hotel's shop is a treasure trove, selling home-produced delicacies, a perfect memento of the culinary journey. The option of a cellar restaurant specializing in gourmet cuisine further enhances the gastronomic appeal.
Value for Money
Rates begin around DKK 350 per night, which for a Relais & Châteaux property in a historic castle setting, represents a compelling proposition. Included in this is free continental breakfast, and the option to partake in 18 holes of golf. Given the quality of the dining, the serene surroundings, and the unique historical context, Dragsholm Slot offers considerable value for discerning travellers.
Accessibility
While specific details on accessibility features are limited, the property's location in a rural area and its nature as a historic castle suggest a need for guests with mobility concerns to inquire directly about specific accommodations and potential limitations.
Family-Friendly
The property is accommodating to families, with children under two years of age staying free of charge. The expansive grounds and proximity to outdoor activities like Nekselø Bay and Havnsø Playground make it an appealing destination for those travelling with younger guests. The availability of room service and the general tranquility of the setting also contribute to a relaxed family experience.
