Where the next hole tastes like oysters

The calendar fills itself with long weekends, Mother’s Day, and plans that aren’t quite defined yet. And then, suddenly, something appears that you want to lock in immediately. QL Golf & Taste. On May 10 and 11, the course at Kasteel Engelenburg in Brummen transforms into a culinary route where you don’t just play - you taste. Moving from hole to hole, you’re continually surprised by a dish from a QL Chef—some at Michelin level - paired with a glass that fits the moment perfectly. Nine holes, nine chefs, nine flavors. And somewhere along the way, you forget your score. 

From QL Golf to QL Golf & Taste 

Quality Lodgings is for those who know that a stay should be more than just a place to sleep. It’s about how something feels, how a day unfolds, and how everything naturally falls into place. With QL Golf, a collection of hotels was created where that philosophy extends onto the fairway—places with their own golf course or located near remarkable ones, where you play and then effortlessly linger at the table afterward. QL Golf & Taste brings that feeling together in a single day. Not spread across multiple locations, but exactly where everything aligns. 
 

Sunday, May 10: a spring outing with flavor

Mother’s Day doesn’t have to be grand—but it should feel special. The open edition on Sunday, May 10 is one of those days you don’t plan out of obligation, but because it simply feels right. Not a standard lunch or predictable outing, but a day outdoors, in motion, with attention for one another and space to truly enjoy the moment. Whether you take to the course with your mother, explore something new with friends, or give yourself a day where everything slows down, this is the kind of experience you’ll look back on—precisely because you were fully part of it. Perfect to give as a gift. Even better to experience together.  

Participating chefs on Sunday, May 10 include: Bas Diepenbroek (Kasteel Engelenburg), Joeri Hukker (Restaurant & Hotel De Jaeger), Robert Hartelman (Hotel de Sterrenberg), Lucas Schütte (Hof zur Linde), Sebastiaan Pals (Landgoed de Uitkijk), Arturo Dalhuisen and Kevin Annink (Carelshaven), and Niek Bezuijen (Landgoed Groot Warnsborn).

Monday, May 11: business, redefined 

Business can be different, too. On Monday, May 11, the focus shifts to a business edition where the emphasis is not on formal conversations or rigid structures, but on connecting in a way that feels natural. Designed for entrepreneurs, professionals, and relationships that go beyond the typical networking dinner, this is about strengthening connections through shared experience. And honestly—this is the kind of conversation you’ll actually remember. 

Participating chefs on Monday, May 11 include: Bas Diepenbroek (Kasteel Engelenburg), Wilco Berends (De Nederlanden), Bart Leussink (The Church), Bjorn Massop (Villa Ruimzicht), Devin Looijschelder (Kasteel Kerckebosch), Alexander Greve (Hotel Störmann), Alain Aalders (The Duke Suites), Jacopo Crivellari (Parc Broekhuizen), and Seb Smit (Landgoed Lauswolt).  

An intimate setting, a lasting impression 

You play in small groups of six, creating space to fully enjoy everything happening—on and off the course. At each hole, a dish from a different QL Chef awaits, thoughtfully built up throughout the day. With a maximum of 54 guests per session, the experience remains intentionally small-scale. No crowds, no rush—just space for attention, flavor, and moments that stay with you.
