Landgoed Vidaa hosts business events and meetings for 10 to 2,500 guests on a 3-hectare estate in Bergschenhoek, near Rotterdam. It runs two sites, the estate with its own island and Vidaa Lago, a former sawmill on the river Rotte in Bleiswijk, and it also holds weddings and private celebrations.
Seminars and company events
The estate offers meetings, retreats, team building, workshops, conferences, trade fairs and company parties. It has water features, art and an island, and a group can break a session with a walk or a lunch in the restaurant. Retreat days can be held around a campfire with no WiFi, which the venue pitches as a back to basics setting for strategy sessions. Overnight stays are possible for management team retreats.
At Vidaa Lago, the former four meeting rooms are now one large hall that can be divided into one, two, three or four rooms by movable walls. It is used for meetings, receptions, company parties and lectures. Two sliding doors open onto a wooden deck over the Rotte. The site also has a meeting ferry on the river.
Weddings and receptions
Both sites take weddings: the estate has its own wedding offer and Vidaa Lago has a separate one. Receptions, anniversaries and private celebrations are also hosted. Ask the team about ceremony formats and guest numbers for your date.
Rooms and capacities
On the island, the Mongolian Ger takes up to 50 people, with its own sanitary facilities and a terrace for barbecues. The tipi tents take up to 70 people for meetings, drinks or parties. The Campfire location takes up to 16 people for coaching or strategy sessions. Herba is a covered area under a stretch tent, set by the water, for up to 400 people; side walls can make it weatherproof. De Gallery, inside the Artihove art showroom, takes up to 17 people indoors. The estate also lists Pura Vidaa rooms, a Chakra garden and a Buddha garden. At Vidaa Lago, the hall takes 220 people.
Accommodation
Guests can stay overnight at the estate in tiny houses, some with a hot tub, and at Vidaa Lago in the Villa Lago or the Glass House. The site also offers a stay combined with a nearby partner venue. Check the number of beds with the team.
Catering
The estate has a restaurant, used for lunches during meeting days. Breakfast and lunch can also be served at the campfire location. Guests can bake their own pizzas in a wood-fired outdoor oven at the end of a session. A restaurant on the water is open at Vidaa Lago.
