In the peaceful, picturesque hamlet of Cottessen lies a beautiful half-timbered farmhouse from the 18th century. This farmhouse is currently owned by the foundation “Het Limburgs Landschap”, which has carefully renovated the property. The former home (the left part of the farmhouse) has been transformed into a 12-person holiday home called Bervesj Huis. The former barn (the right part of the farmhouse) has been transformed into an atmospheric 8-person holiday home called Bervesj Schuur.
Let's take a look inside
Bervesj Huis is a real treat for the eyes. When you enter the house through the red front door, you will find yourself in the hall that connects all the rooms downstairs. The floors have underfloor heating and are covered with red tiles that are typical for Limburg. The walls consist of timber framing. On the left side of the hall, you can find the cosy living room, which has leather sofas and a lovely wood burner. On the right side of the hall, you can find the kitchen with plenty of workspace which is equipped with a 4-burner electric hob, oven, microwave, fridge-freezer, coffee machine, kettle and dishwasher. While cooking you have amazing views of the Geuldal valley. Also on the ground floor are a double bedroom, a separate toilet and a bathroom with shower, washbasin and toilet. One of the two staircases in the hallway will take you to the upper floor. Here you will find five attractive double bedrooms which are all equipped with box-spring beds. Furthermore, there is a very spacious bathroom with a shower, bathtub, washbasin and toilet.
Outdoor space
Guests of ‘Bervesj Huis’ can enjoy a lovely garden and covered, sheltered terrace – the perfect place to enjoy the outdoors until late at night with friends and family. Children will also love playing at the table tennis table at the front of the building. We recommend exploring the beautiful surroundings on foot or by bike! Cottessen is a beautifully preserved hamlet with the same number of farms and houses as it had back in 1760 – fourteen in all. It’s the perfect spot to admire the landscape’s rolling hills, streams, and vast meadows in all their glory.
