Not far from Denmark's southernmost tip at Gedser, you'll find this charming little red cottage located in the wild forest area of Bøtø, where migratory birds pass over bogs, crooked trees and beautiful, unspoiled nature areas. Here you can escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and let yourself be enchanted by the relaxed atmosphere in the cottage and the feeling that you have all the time in the world to enjoy nature and each other.
The cottage exudes charm and is decorated in a personal style with heirlooms, flea market finds and recycled gold. Little touches of color light up the old house, where the soul and spirit of the 60s can still be felt in the small retro kitchen and the lovely living room, where you can enjoy games and chat. The house itself is a small oasis of 35m2, but it's really well-appointed. The bedroom in the house and the annex are small oases furnished with fine old finds, and here you can go to sleep to the sound of the wind whispering in the treetops outside the open window.
The covered terrace creates a lovely outdoor space where you can eat your meals, curl up with a good book, and even when it rains, you can work on creative projects to the sound of the drops drumming on the roof. The garden's beautiful old trees provide cool shade, wonderful scents and gorgeous flowers depending on the wind, weather and season. When you want to go to the beach, just take a 15-minute stroll along the cozy cottage roads and you'll find yourself with your toes in the sand, ready to jump in the waves.

We are a young couple who enjoy the hustle and bustle of Copenhagen's vibrant streets on a daily basis. That's why we often use our summer house on weekends and vacations, where presence means a lot to us. We enjoy our little house and each other and relax in a completely different way than when we are in the city. Our dog, Ghita Nørby, also enjoys taking a break from life as a city dog. We both grew up on Lolland and Falster, so for us, summer time is also about being close to family and supporting the local environment and nature, which we love. As we have a dog ourselves, the property is fenced.
We rarely use the TV, but instead spend a lot of time on our covered terrace and in the nooks and crannies of the garden. We have preserved much of the vegetation and kept the old trees, which gives a feeling that the history of the house lives on. When we're not spending time in the garden, we love to go for walks in the area. Either to the water, in the Bøtø Forest or up to the market square for an ice cream. We also love to walk around and look at all the little flea market stalls that people put out. We often take a drive (10 km) to the southernmost point of Denmark, Gedser, where it is so beautiful. But otherwise, we rarely use the car until we have to go home again.
