Auberge de Smockelaer

The Smockelaer is located in an authentic Limburg carré farm and is a wonderfully unique event location.

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

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

 Let yourself be inspired by our Vakwerk
An authentic half-timbered barn encloses our new location. The half-timbering, made with oak wood, cement, sand, straw, and ingredients that I better not mention, but are widely available, radiates calm, honesty, and warmth. The interior no longer resembles the original from a distance. Where tractors and cows used to stand, there is now space for a beautiful wooden floor, a coffee corner, lamps inspired by the old gas lamps of the past, and chairs that Churchill once sat in, but have undergone such a transformation that you might want to take one home with you.
However, I have saved the best for last: the fantastic view over Het Plateau van Heijenrath, the Alp d'Huez of the Netherlands.
I hope you come to see and taste the atmosphere and a piece of our homemade Limburg vlaai.

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 use facilities such as a projector, audio equipment, etc. The apartments have a shared living room with a terrace. The bedrooms are equipped with a private bathroom, box spring beds, a 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.
