This simple and cozy holiday home is located between grass and heather near Denmark's northernmost North Sea town Gammel Skagen. Højen, as the area is also known, is a traditional fishing village on the west coast that has now grown together with the town of Skagen itself - and the charm and authenticity of the old fishermen's houses is unmistakable.
The cottage is painted black with original details such as yellow tiles and charming sloping ceilings in the bedrooms. On an autumn day, you can light up the old, original wood-burning stove and settle down in the dining area with board games, sweets and hot drinks. On warm summer days, the cozy atmosphere moves outside to one of the lovely seating areas on the tiled terrace around the house, where you can smell the heather and taste the salt in the sea breeze.
Around the house, the beautiful nature of Skagen awaits with plenty of experiences for the memory book. Walk from the cottage all the way to Grenen with the North Sea as a companion on your left hand, chase the sinking sun on the Sunset Square, or enjoy the food and atmosphere at the traditional old seaside hotels Ruths, Brøndums and Hjorts.

Take a stroll to the charming fishing village of Højen on the North Sea - also known as Gammel Skagen
In 1976 I moved to Skagen and I've been coming there ever since. It is quite simply my favorite place. In 1985, I helped my father build the summer house on Søstjernevej, which was designed by my uncle. Now I have bought the cottage myself from my parents. I enjoy long walks by the beach and out to Grenen and cycling to the old districts of Østerby and Vesterby. The harbor is also always worth a visit with its many yachts and cozy restaurants.
The Skagen painters believed it was the light that made the region special. Perhaps it's the fresh breeze that can be felt as light puffs across the town or as powerful storms that blow through the marrow and bones. Either way, it's simply my favorite place.

Lovely house in a great location with deer right outside the windows. Lovely terraces around the house. Lovely beds, duvets and pillows and we thoroughly enjoyed not having to worry about cleaning.
