Located in Zuid-Kennemerland in Overveen, Buitenplaats Elswout is a historic estate that offers an oasis of peace and beauty. Surrounded by woods, water features and stately lanes, this centuries-old property is one of the best-preserved country estates in the Netherlands. Once built as a summer retreat for wealthy Amsterdam merchants, Elswout reflects a combination of lush nature and carefully designed landscape gardens.

Elswout offers visitors not only a glimpse into its rich history, but also a place to enjoy the peace and harmony of an exceptionally beautiful piece of nature. A perfect destination for a relaxing walk and a step back in time.
