On a large, protected plot of land in the coastal town of Blåvand lies Karetmagerens Gård - the perfect setting for a large family or 2-3 smaller families who want to experience a bygone era together. Here you can take a step back from everyday life and live the primitive and simple life for a while in authentic and scenic surroundings.
The farm is listed but renovated in the original style from the 1930s, so all original details inside and out have been beautifully preserved. It exudes historic charm everywhere, and with no electricity, it brings out a sense of presence. Light the candles, fire up the stove and slow down together.
Behind the farm, you have free access to the undisturbed nature of West Jutland. Explore the trees, cook together in the outdoor kitchen or take a hot shower under the solar-heated outdoor shower and feel the calmness sink into your body. If it gets too chilly in the evening, you can pull the long table into the barn and let the chatter flow until dusk with a view of the almost hundred-year-old rafters.
You can also visit the architectural bunker museum Tirpitz, go to the beach and jump in the waves at the North Sea or take an excursion to Denmark's westernmost point, Blåvandshuk Lighthouse, and enjoy the view over the dunes.
(The farm consists of three separate sections, two with their own kitchen. There is a bathroom with toilet and cold water shower and a lovely outdoor shower with solar-heated water. Solar panels charge the essentials in the barn and bed linen and towels can be booked by arrangement).

My name is Anna Cecilie and I inherited the farm from my father. I now own it with my husband, Peter, and we come here every summer with our four children, Balder, Idun, Embla and Victor, and a lot of our friends.
Most of the farm has been newly renovated from 2022 with respect for the farm's history and all the preservation-worthy details from the 1930s. This is when the farm transitioned from being an active farm to a rental for Blåvand's less fortunate. It was here that the Karetmageren from Oksbøl inherited the farm and rebuilt it to accommodate three families - each with their own living room and small kitchen, and a modern shared bathroom was established in the area between the stable and barn. The farm is thus divided into the Aftægtsboligen, B's section, which is the middle part of the house and the East Apartment, which is the old main house.
"When we're here we often go to the beach, of which there are several good ones in Blåvand. Blåvand Lighthouse is also a favorite excursion destination or scenic Kallesmærskhede, the protected plantation, Hennemølleå, and Blåbjerg Klitplantage.
Many guests find that when you replace the modern setting with a simpler one, different and sometimes slightly closer forms of socializing can suddenly emerge. And that's exactly what we're looking forward to passing on.
