As soon as the days get shorter and the first christmas lights appear, the entire region around B&B Het Notarishuis transforms into a fairytale winter wonderland. From our Bed & Breakfast, you can quickly discover some of the most beautiful Christmas markets in Europe – each with its own unique atmosphere, but all equally enchanting.

Magical Maastricht
Just a short drive from Het Notarishuis, you'll find Magical Maastricht. In December, the entire city glows, with a winter village full of lights on the Vrijthof square, an ice skating track, charming chalets, and the delicious aromas of mulled wine and waffles. Combine your visit to the Christmas market with an André Rieu concert for an unforgettable December evening.

Christmas Markets in the Caves of Valkenburg
In Valkenburg, you'll experience a Christmas market like no other. The famous Christmas markets in the marl caves take you underground past countless stalls brimming with crafts, decorations, and delicacies. Above ground, the Christmas parades, Winter Wonderland, and the illuminated castle ruins add to the magic.

Aachen – German tradition at its finest
Just across the border, Aachen awaits with one of Germany's most beautiful Christmas markets. Around the impressive cathedral and town hall, you'll experience the authentic German atmosphere. Stroll past the stalls, enjoy a warm mulled wine, and sample the famous Aachener Printen.

Monschau – a picturesque Christmas town
A little further into Germany lies Monschau, a romantic town that transforms into a living Christmas postcard in December. The half-timbered houses, illuminated streets, and charming squares make this Christmas market a wonderful day trip destination.

Liège – the largest Christmas market in Belgium
Liège is also well worth a visit. The Village de Noël de Liège is the largest Christmas market in Belgium and offers a vibrant mix of lights, attractions, artisanal products, and gastronomic delicacies. A perfect end to a winter day.​


The ideal base for your Christmas getaway
From our B&B Het Notarishuis, you can easily reach all these Christmas markets. During the day, enjoy the cozy atmosphere of the squares, and in the evening, return to the peace and warmth of our B&B. Relax in your comfortable room – just the way it should be after a day full of winter magic.
