Kokkedal Slot, 18th-century castle and luxury hotel in Hørsholm, Denmark
Kokkedal Slot is a white-painted castle set in landscaped grounds in Hørsholm, Denmark, operating as a hotel with 62 rooms. The rooms are furnished in period style, and the property also includes an 18-hole golf course and six conference rooms.
The building was first raised in 1746 as a farm belonging to Hirschholm Palace. Queen Sophie Magdalene later handed the estate over to German Count Christian August von Berckentin, who shaped it into its current form.
The castle restaurant sits in the cellar and serves Danish food based on seasonal produce from nearby suppliers. The cooking reflects a close connection to the surrounding countryside and local farming traditions.
Free parking is available on the grounds, and comfortable shoes are a good idea since the estate covers a large area. The property also has a wellness center offering spa treatments.
The spa on the property operates inside a restored outbuilding that dates from the same era as the main castle. The building was carefully converted for modern use while keeping the original walls and structural features intact.
