The nature house is an 18th-century farmhouse with a bakehouse located in the Cottessen Nature Reserve. It is partly half-timbered and partly built with natural stone (rubble stone) from the Cottessen Quarry. The Cottessen Quarry is located about 100 meters away. The farmhouse has been a national historic monument since 1967. The bakehouse has been converted into a vacation home for up to 4 people. There is one bedroom on the ground floor with a double bed. On the upper floor, there is another bedroom with two single box-spring beds. Given its layout, the cottage is less suitable for young children. The upper floor is accessible via a steep “miller’s staircase.” We look forward to welcoming you with comfortably made beds. Ground floor layout: small entryway, living room, kitchen, bathroom with toilet, large bedroom. Upper floor: landing, bedroom.

Nature and surroundings

Thanks to its location, there are beautiful, unobstructed views on all sides of the Geul Valley, the Vijlenerbos, and Belgium (Sippenaeken). The Geul River flows nearby, and so do the small tributaries Cottesserbeek and Berversbergbeek. There are various hiking trails and scenic bike routes in the immediate vicinity. There are also many good restaurants and outdoor dining spots in the area. Towns such as Valkenburg, Gulpen, Vaals, Aachen, and Maastricht are nearby. It’s a perfect location to enjoy nature and culture.

    Cozy and very clean. The owners give you plenty of peace and space and are available remotely.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    A really cozy little cottage in a pleasant location with a large garden and a beautiful view. There’s plenty of space around the cottage. It’s situated along a quiet walking path leading toward the Geul River. There’s also a nice spot there for a dog to go into the water. There are no stores within walking distance. Epen is nearby by car.
