Auberge de Smockelaer

The Smockelaer is located in an authentic Limburg carré farm and is a wonderfully special event venue.

At the top of one of the most beautiful hills in South Limburg, surrounded by the Roebelsbos and Slenaken, lies the Smockelaer. The farm houses several conference rooms, a restaurant, and 22 luxury bedrooms. (and at our 2nd location 2 km away, there are another 12 very luxury rooms, allowing accommodations for a total of 92 people).

You are interested in a meeting location, training venue, or you are looking for a location for an event. Below you will find the reasons why ‘t Vakwerkhuys from the Smockelaer would be your choice.

Let yourself be inspired by our Vakwerk
An authentic timber-framed barn surrounds our new location. The timber framing made with oak wood, cement, sand, straw, and ingredients I better not mention, but are widely available, radiates calmness, honesty, and warmth. The interior no longer resembles the original from a distance. Where tractors and cows used to be, there is now a beautiful wooden floor, a coffee corner, lamps inspired by the old gas lamps of yesteryear, and chairs that Churchill has sat on, which have undergone such a transformation that you might want to take one home with you.
However, I saved the best for last: the fantastic view over the Plateau of Heijenrath, atop the Alp d´Huez of the Netherlands.
I hope you come to see and already taste the atmosphere and a piece of our homemade Limburg pie.

The size of the conference room(s) is always adjusted to the group size, so the conference room is never too big or too small. Of course, you can make use of facilities such as a projector, audio system, etc. The apartments are equipped with a shared living room with terrace. The bedrooms come with their own bathroom, box spring beds, TV, and internet connection.

The auberge has organized various activities for both active and less active groups. For example, a cooking clinic, fort adventure, or archery course can be arranged.
