The overnight stay at Basthorst Castle, with its excellent spa, was very relaxing. My impression, however, is that the target audience is more likely drivers of higher-end cars. The last leg of my cycling journey was very arduous (a forest path in terrible condition... you can find many, many photos of it on Komoot - therefore, choose a longer, alternative route via the road...).
