A pretty little city within easy reach of Amsterdam, Utrecht, Rotterdam and The Hague, Woerden is a brilliant base for discovering the green heart of the Netherlands. Also popular with commuters looking to live outside of the country’s larger cities, Woerden has a lively, welcoming feel. This is very much reflected at our Gurus’ pick of the best places to stay in Woerden; a design-led bolthole with a fabulous restaurant and bar.
Delve into Woerden’s rich history with a visit to the Woerden Museum, amble along leafy lanes and enjoy scenic boat trips along the canals which wind their way through the city and into the surrounding countryside. The city’s cheese market — held throughout the summer months for centuries — has long attracted a foodie crowd, and offers a wonderful insight into laid-back Dutch life. Fill your bags with fresh produce for canal-side picnics or evening drinks.
Woerden is framed by bucolic countryside, with refreshing rivers, and verdant farmland studded with windmills. Follow well-maintained cycling and hiking trails, take to the waterways by kayak, or spot birds in idyllic nature reserves during the spring and summer months. The team at the best place to stay in Woerden will be very happy to point you towards their favourite spots — and to welcome you back with a cold beer and cracking seasonal cuisine.
