Amstel Gold Race

The landscape around the Amstel Gold Race is made for outdoors lovers. In the morning, you step out onto the terrace from your holiday home with a cup of coffee. The 30 homes are spread across villages such as Lanaken, Spaubeek, Epen and Dilsen-Stokkem in Belgian Limburg and Flanders. Guests describe these locations as calm and private. You notice that the border here is invisible. The forest or water is often right nearby. Your stay offers peace, far removed from the large crowds of spectators preparing for the start in Maastricht.

The rhythm of this weekend is shaped by cycling. On Saturday and Sunday, riders head for the finish in Berg en Terblijt. There are plenty of places in the region to get into the spirit. For example, you can sit down at Wielercafé Aan de Kirk 9.8 kilometres away, or visit Boscafé 't Hijgend Hert at 3.6 kilometres for craft beer and hearty comfort food. Guests mention that the contrast between the energy of the race and the quiet upon returning to the house is very pleasant.

The properties offer all the comfort you need for a good weekend. At places such as the Maas Suites or Forest cabin Rekem, you choose from homes with a living space ranging from 20 to 450 square metres. Each of the 30 houses features wifi, a terrace, a shower, a toilet and a washbasin. The kitchens are equipped with cutlery, plates and drinking glasses. After a long day outdoors, many guests retreat here to cozy surroundings. This is reflected in the 917 reviews with an average score of 8.8.

Between cheering, you can walk straight into the forests or parks. The Vijlenerbos lies 2.9 kilometres away, and at 6.0 kilometres you will find River Park Meuse Valley. For relaxation after walking or watching the race, drive to Elaisa Energetic Wellness, just 4.4 kilometres from your front door. The surroundings feel spacious and green. You simply listen to the sounds of nature or visit the Labyrinth Drielandenpunt 7.8 kilometres away.

The Amstel Gold Race takes place on 17 and 18 April 2027. The event starts in Maastricht and finishes in Berg en Terblijt. You will find all 30 available accommodations in this area or just outside it, in Belgian Lanaken and Dilsen-Stokkem, or Dutch Spaubeek and Epen. The capacity of the properties ranges from 2 to 18 people. These accommodations feature 1 to 7 bedrooms and have a living space between 20 and 450 square metres. Useful for your preparations: cutlery, plates and drinking glasses are standard in every house. Wifi, a terrace, a washbasin, a shower and a toilet are also part of the standard facilities. At specialstays, you book specifically for this cycling weekend. Dogs are allowed in 14 of the 30 homes.

A stay during this event works well for various types of groups. Couples, for instance, choose a more intimate cabin such as the Maas Suites - Ibiza Suite for 3 people or the Wielerhuuske in Spaubeek for 4 people. Larger groups and families will find plenty of space in accommodations with 3 to 7 bedrooms, where groups of up to 18 people can follow the race together. For guests with a pet, there is plenty of choice, as dogs are welcome in 14 of the 30 homes. If you are looking for a place with constant activity and hustle right outside your front door, these secluded nature cabins are less suitable. In this selection at specialstays, the focus is firmly on quiet and privacy after a long day along the course.
