Words from happy guests

Fantastic vacation home! Plenty of space in all rooms. The wood-burning stove, sauna, and outdoor jacuzzi are fantastic extras :) We used both the wood-burning stove and sauna, but had to do without the jacuzzi because it was winter and there was lots of snow. The surroundings are beautiful and peaceful, and only a short walk from the North Sea and the town. There was firewood in the room in the annex, but we needed a shovel for the snow when we arrived...we bought one at the supermarket, so now we have one :)

Thomas Jul from Denmark

Stay for 2 adults

An older house, but with lots of coziness and charm. Nicely located in the peaceful countryside. If you prefer firm mattresses, you might wish for an upgrade in the beds. It's fantastic that everything is available in the house, and the house appeared clean and welcoming.

Erik from Denmark

Stay for 11 adults

Absolutely fantastic location—beautiful views and excellent opportunities to see the northern lights. The path up to the house is not suitable for people with walking difficulties.

Jannie Haupt from Denmark

Stay for 4 adults

Really nice and well-maintained cottage with simple furnishings. The garden is beautiful and wild, with plenty of space for play and relaxation!

Sofie from Denmark

Stay for 2 adults and 1 baby

Very idyllic and peaceful, especially in the winter landscape. Beautiful gallery-style house with matching interior.

Ma from Germany

Stay for 2 adults

Beautiful location, and the price matched the conditions: no electricity or water. The cabin was -10 degrees Celsius in the morning before we arrived, but Bente had heated it up to 16 degrees by the time we got there, and it was 24 degrees at bedtime.

Max Vittrup from Norway

Stay for 2 adults and 1 child

A beautiful, practical, and cozy cabin in peaceful surroundings and beautiful nature.

Marie Salomonsen from Norway

Stay for 4 adults and 2 children

A beautiful vacation home in a dreamlike setting. If you are looking for peace and nature, you will find it here.
