I suppose the session was not at villa Eikenhorst but at the teahouse on the estate 'De Horsten' too, which is public.

A picture here.

De Horsten is an estate in Wassenaar owned by the RF (I believe by Queen Beatrix and Princess Margriet at the moment. The estate was a 'merger' between 3 estates in Wassenaar (Raaphorst, Ter Horst and Eikenhorst) aquired by Prince Frederik, son of King Willem I. His daughter Furstin Marie of Wied inhereted the properties but later sold it to Queen Wilhelmina.

Here a map of the estates; most of what was the Eikenhorst estate is private. Note that neighbouring estate 'De Pauw' was also property of Prince Frederik, but it was sold to the city of Wassenaar.

In the 80-ties Princess Christina decided to settle in the Netherlands again and a villa was built on a private part of the estate. The PoO bought the villa later I think, and they made a few adjustments to it.

Most of the parc is open to the public and the private area has a dark fence and moat around it, for security and privacy reasons.
