THE TEA GARDEN
The Tea Garden in Weesp is situated on one of the four bastions this old fortified town possesses. It is called Bastion Bakkerschans and was built in 1674. It is surrounded by a wall on which stately, old trees are growing. This historical location, an oasis hidden in greenery, is the perfect spot for a romantic tea garden.
In 1986 this first tea garden in the Netherlands was established and designed by landscape architects Jacqueline van der Kloet, Stan Gall and Niek Roozen. This was the ideal location to realize their dream. A beautiful model garden with special plants, pots and an attractive tea house.
Meanwhile, the garden has grown into a real paradise where the true garden enthusiast will have a great time. The garden is well-known by now in Holland, but also abroad.
The building which now houses the coffee/lunch bar was built in 1875 to store munitions. It has a pleasant atmosphere and can be rented to be used for various occasions. A unique location for your social or business gatherings. For rental opportunities please contact info@theetuin-noot.nl
