At the southern tip of Helgenæs, where the warm, dry Helgenæs landscape meets the open sea, lies the fantastic sanctuary Granlygård. Its own wild flower fields, fruit grove and high up to the sky; beautifully designed architecture; views of Aarhus Bay, Tunø and Samsø. Granlygård is an absolutely magical place that just calls for new holiday home memories - and it is specially designed so that three families or groups of friends can stay here together, but still enjoy being able to retreat to their own section whenever they want.
Granlygård was built in the early 1900s and has been lovingly renovated and rebuilt in recent years with respect for the history of the place - and with a focus on aesthetics, good materials and opportunities for play, community and development. The house has a functional and independent ground floor with three bedrooms and a large, beautiful living room with a lovely wood-burning stove to warm up by, a piano, cozy sofa groups to sit down in, dining area and a good kitchen where the skilled food enthusiast can create dining experiences that the family can gather around.
What's special about the house is that there are also two independent apartments on the first floor, so in total there are three independent apartments - the ground floor and two on the first floor, totaling 310 m2. Both first floor apartments have the most incredible views of Aarhus Bay and are brand new, each with their own bathroom, two bedrooms, loft and a large bright kitchen and living room with panoramic windows that elegantly invite nature inside. The interior design of the holiday home is personalized and inspired by the 70s combined with brand new elements such as the modern kitchens in a shade of blue.
Here you are located in the middle of one of Denmark's most beautiful natural areas. Helgenæs is located right in the middle of Denmark, and despite its modest size, the area offers steep slopes, low meadows, happy little hills and warm hollows, wide views and cozy villages.
A short distance from Granlygård you'll find Sletterhage Lighthouse, Mols Bjerge National Park, Fregatten Jylland, Kalø Castle Ruins, Ree Park and Ebeltoft with many cultural experiences.

We are Janus and Matias, a pair of brothers from Aarhus, who are the team behind Granlygård. The place is our shared sanctuary and we love Granlygård and the wild nature of Helgenæs. The summer house is the child of our hearts, and we've put a lot of thought and energy into refurbishing and rebuilding it. We meet here with family and friends as often as we can, but when we're not here ourselves, we want others to be able to enjoy the place as much as we do.
There is a rich bird and wildlife life here, including foxes, hares, deer, badgers, pheasants and birds of prey. Granlygård and the area around Sletterhage is an area that really needs to be experienced.

The house is both cozy and tastefully decorated. It invites you to spend time with your family. It was just right for the children. We cooked delicious meals in the evenings and spent time on the terrace. There is plenty of space for lots of people, so you can get away from each other if you want to. The area around the house is picturesque. We had a wonderful stay!
