This renowned estate, with its rich history dating back to 1685, provides a quintessential picnic experience that reflects the region's heritage and natural beauty.
The Werf picnic baskets include food made from the natural farm produce including freshly baked bread, green salads from the Werf Food Garden, free-range, handmade charcuterie cuts from the Boschendal Butchery, homemade preserves and the celebrated desserts.
