Stay at the fully renovated Slot Assumburg: a 13th-century castle in Heemskerk. Here you can sleep like a true lord or lady. Close to the Dutch coast and cities such as Haarlem and Amsterdam.
Stayokay Heemskerk is perfectly located near the beach and popular day-trip destinations. Within minutes, you'll reach the beach at Castricum aan Zee. Perfect for outdoor adventures or fun day trips to Amsterdam, Haarlem or the Zaanse Schans. The combination of culture and coast for a holiday in the Netherlands.
Stay at the charming Assumburg Castle, an authentic castle with a moat and a large castle garden. Choose a private (family) room with an en-suite bathroom or stay in the new Castle Turret family room: specially designed in a knight-and-princess theme. The adventure starts at check-in, when children go on a scavenger hunt through the castle. Perfect for a family break in the Netherlands.

Reviews are important. For you and for us. It helps you to make the right choice and helps us to learn. That is why we post reviews on external (booking) sites on our own website.
Guests receive an email after their stay to leave a review. The scores are calculated by means of an analysis of the written review and are based on the past 12 months. Written reviews are summarised because we cannot show them in full due to copyright issues. But positive or negative, we post them all. We do not pay for reviews and fake reviews are reported.
