Head to Saksild, just a short drive from Aarhus, where a small black-painted cottage with an authentic cottage atmosphere awaits you. An ideal place for a small family, a romantic getaway or a creative retreat when you need a few days of immersion in peaceful surroundings.
Even though the cottage is only 51 m2, there's plenty of room to spare. The house is cozy with white-painted board walls and bamboo lamps that cast a patterned glow across the walls and create a warm atmosphere. On cooler days you can cozy up by the wood-burning stove, and if you need a quiet moment, you can retreat to the built-in alcove with a good book or podcast in your ears.
Outside, you can enjoy your morning coffee on the sheltered covered terrace or fire up the barbecue on hot days, while children and young at heart play garden games or take a swing on the old oak swing. You can also challenge each other to a game of mini golf at your neighbor, Denmark's oldest mini golf course.
Saksild is perfect for those slow days, where you can take a stroll along the field path past waving cornfields to the local bakery for breakfast bread and hop on your bikes to pick up fish from the fishmonger for lunch. And with only a few hundred meters to one of Denmark's most beautiful sandy beaches, you're never far from the next sea bath. When you get home, you can rinse off under the stars in the outdoor pool's rainshower.

Highlights from Carina
Host since November 2022
- Feel the cozy and authentic cottage atmosphere in the small cottage
- Walk the 200 meters down to beautiful Saksild Beach, where you can lounge in the soft sand and jump into the sea
- Enjoy slow days in the resort town of Saksild with breakfast from the bakery and lunch from the local fishmonger on the wooden terrace
We are a couple who have known each other for seven years and we enjoy doing projects together. Michael is a craftsman, while Carina is an experience designer. We've traveled the world a lot, where we've been inspired by different cultures and people. After completely renovating and decorating our home, which is a house from the 60s, we wanted to embark on a new project. After months of searching, we found the perfect cottage for us in Saksild, which we bought in 2020 and have since made our very own.
In winter, there's room for peace and quiet and the area is quieter and calmer compared to summer, which is buzzing with life and people. A few hundred meters away you can jump into the beautiful sea, which has a lovely sandy bottom and the softest sand. We're also next door to Denmark's oldest miniature golf course, where you can play a game or enjoy the most delicious gourmet ice cream from Kastberg.
The local area around our cottage is one of the things we enjoy the most. Being able to take the bike out to Norsminde Fiskehus and buy fresh fish cakes, pick up freshly baked bread, vegetables from Tunø or a delicious steak for the grill at the farm shop Fru Møllers or stop by Karensminde Frugtplantage and pick fruit according to the season - our favorite is their cherries, which are really delicious and juicy.
