"Mijnheer Pirroen" is a double room under old beams in a charming combination of black and white.
Here you dream away in a double bed under a warm duvet. The bathroom has a washbasin, a shower
and a toilet. This room is charming, cozy and very pleasant. Pirroen can charm anyone.
Mijnheer Pirroen was always seen in sunlight and rain, with a white silk high hat,
a plum-coloured coat and a walking stick whose handle was the horn of a goat...
He was built short and square as a box. Pirroen had green eyes. He claimed that the
soul lived in the abdomen, "sad people always have squeaky and soft bellies",
and he could argue for hours. And when, in the end, people said he was right,
like pharmacist Snip, Pirroen said: "No, I have no right, it is you that is right".
Pirroen sayed, "love is will", and he curtly governed love, because he wanted to remain
high in his own eyes. He was satisfied with himself, knew no trouble, was never afraid
and loved extremes in what he said and did.This new original Pallieter figure has
something strange-bohemian, something of indestructible self-confidence, mocking
dominance and radical consequence of the predecessor. But after the strong growth
of Pallieter Pirroen is in and out of a different life. Lust of life gave him the
humor and a sense for contradictions and weaknesses, that in ordinary life are seen
as conventional. There is a lot of seriousness of the author in his work, he has all
the phenomena of life, including that of sentimental love, finally subordinated to his
artistic elation about the work of image of life.

Pallieter is a room with blue accents and decorated with charming antique stained pine furniture.
The two box springs can be joined to an ultra comfortable king-size bed with double mattress.
In the bathroom you have washbasin, a shower and a separate bath tub. The toilet can be found,
of course, in the smallest room. Via a miller’s staircase, Pallieter is directly connected to
Marieke, a large room under the roof beams. The beautiful view of the Nete and the surrounding
landscape you can admire from this room, certainly will remind you of the spirited Kempen son
after whom this room is named.
The word 'Pallieter' entered the Dutch language with the meaning of 'bon vivant'.
His statue is located in Lier.
Pallieter is in love with Marieke. When Pallieter learns that a railway line will be
placed throughout the land which he loves so much, he decides to travel the wide world.
But first Pallieter invites Marieke, declares his love and asks her to marry him.
He marries her in September. Marieke and Pallieter celebrate their young love in a
marriage boat. Together they stay in Netheland, until the exuberant Pallieter becomes
the father of triplets. Then the young family travels the world with Charlot.
Marieke is decorated in a very cosy way with beige shades. You sleep under the wooden beams
in two extra-long box springs of 220 cm. If desired, these may also be joined to a king
size bed. There is a separate sitting area with two sofas that can be converted into
single beds. If necessary, two twin beds can be added to this room.
This rural, rustic duplex suite is ideal for businessmen, and of course families for up to 6 people.
There is also the possibility to rent only Pallieter.

While you daydream in the comfortable double box spring, you imagine yourself in a fairy
tale of 1001 Nights. Symforosa is indeed decorated with warm oriental accents and bathed
in an atmosphere of original burgundy silk and dark wood furniture. The sofa in the lounge
area can be turned into a double bed. In the bathroom with washbasin and shower there is
the same luxurious and warm atmosphere. There is a separate toilet. In the entrance there
is a cloakroom. A cot can be added. It is also a room that is suitable for 4 people.
Business men have an office to work in peace.
The short story of Juffrouw Symforosa.
Symforosa is a young Beguine, a religious woman who does not make strict monastic
vows but still wants have to lead a devout life. She falls in love with the gardener
Martienus. This one, however, does not notice and decides to be a friar. Symforosa is
unhappy, and from her 'mistress' she gets the permission to go on a pilgrimage to the
monastery where Martienus is. And then the turnaround: 'All selfishness goes away. She is
happy because he is happy (...). She loved Martienus to marry him, that she knows now.
But now she has seen him in his habit and in this spiritual happiness, this has all been suddenly wiped out.'
Timmermans tells this story in a sober manner, but the characters and the feelings of the characters are displayed in an
intense and glowing way. Many still regard this as his best novel.
