About

Congratulations, you're getting married! How wonderful that you're considering Claus for your upcoming special day.

Our exceptional venue is located in the beautifully green Haarlemmermeerse Bos in Hoofddorp. Our various spaces were once part of the old Mentzhoeve farm, which gives each of them a unique atmosphere and character. These spaces can be completely tailored and arranged to create an unforgettable impression.

We are here to assist you every step of the way, from A to Z, to ensure that this important day is taken care of down to the last detail. Whether it's an amazing wedding party or an intimate reception, each wedding is unique and fully tailored to your wishes.

Are you looking for a venue for the entire day? The wedding ceremony, the reception, dinner, and the party all in one place? It's all possible because Claus is an official wedding location!

Our Spaces

Claus offers an innovative and inspiring event venue that is constantly evolving. This location boasts several spaces, each with its own character and ambiance.

The Patio

Situated in the old courtyard of the Mentzhoeve farm (dating back to 1858), you'll find The Patio—a spacious and multifunctional area (400m²) equipped with modern technology, natural daylight through the glass roof, a vertical garden with real plants, and an outdoor terrace. This space is suitable for elegant dinners of up to 220 people and lively wedding parties of up to 450 people. Thanks to the brand-new sound system, all your guests are guaranteed to be dancing on the dance floor!

The Farmhouse

If you prefer to celebrate your wedding day in a more intimate setting, The Farmhouse is the perfect choice. Once one of the stables of the Mentzhoeve farm, it has now been transformed into a characterful, multifunctional space (175m²) suitable for wedding parties of up to 120 people. The Farmhouse features a large fireplace and provides direct access to the rustic terrace with a delightful South African braai barbecue. Whether in summer or winter, the terrace is a lovely spot with romantic lighting and fire tables. The Farmhouse can also easily be combined with The Patio.

BARRACA Rodizio Grill & Bar

At BARRACA Rodizio Grill & Bar, you can enjoy a unique Brazilian concept with a special style of service during your wedding. Various Passadores continuously circulate with large skewers, carving a delicious piece of meat or fish at your table upon request. The Fresh Market Table also offers the very best fresh starters and side dishes. This concept can also be exclusively used for your dinner guests in one of our private rooms. A dinner at BARRACA Rodizio Grill & Bar guarantees an unforgettable culinary experience on your wedding day!

We werden fijn verwelkomt en door de dag heen verzorgd. Niemand kwam te kort en alles zag er fantastisch uit.
