Tucked away in the Hoge Veluwe National Park in Otterlo, about 2 hours southeast of Amsterdam, the Kröller-Müller Museum is an incredible national art museum & sculpture garden. Founded by prolific art collector Helene Kröller-Müller in 1938, the museum is home to the second largest collection of paintings by Vincent van Gofh, after the Van Gogh Museum, including a fantastic version of The Potato Eaters.

This gorgeous cafe right by the Dom is a perfect pitstop during a day exploring. There’s mismatched furniture, family photos on the wall, and huge slices of decadent cake. Everything is vegan, though you wouldn’t know it. Insiders pick up the verloren brood – a mix of the day before’s leftover cakes – we promise it won’t disappoint. 

Cosy up on the sofa in winter and in the summer grab your favourite coffee, iced, and head for the bench outside. The Village has a well-established fan base and many of the people popping in for their morning brew or afternoon pick-me-up know each other giving it a very warm, community feel.  

The perfect background for a multitude of occasions Bar Bet works for everything from a post-office glass of wine on the terrace to an all-out tasting menu dinner. Start with a selection of perfectly smoked olives, Dutch cheese, and paté with chunks of bright green pistachios dotted throughout. And then stay for the bavette with little gem lettuce, capers, and parmesan – you’ll thank us later.
