Good morning guys,
next january I will be for work in the German area of Bruggen, 5 days,
it' s very close to dutch border and I wuold like to spend one day in holland but not in Amsterdam or another big city like Eindhoven or Rotterdam; I need something in the green!
Any advice about small town coffeeshops?
(Weert, Genk,Bree...)
I' m interested in the area between Eindhoven and the german border.
Thank you,
Adriano

Have a look at the link on the following map to see what towns in the South are open to tourist.

You do realize that Groningen is North of Amsterdam, nowhere near where the OP will be.

Sorry I thought Bruggen was near the limburg region of holland. My thinking was Groningen is a large university town with plenty of CS. But yes looking at it now there are CS closer. Apologies for confusing the issue.
Le città più vicine sono Arnhem o di Nijmegen

Like I said Arnhem and Nijmegen look your best options. I have stayed in Arnhem but that was a few years ago so can not suggest a special place. You will have to visit them and let us know which was best
