The classic black-painted cottage from 1975 is the gathering place for the family. It is the setting for shared experiences, relaxation and everything you need for a summer house trip. In the lovely kitchen-dining room, there is space to relax in front of the wood-burning stove, and at the dining table, family game nights can unfold. This is also the place to enjoy a good dinner, and even though you're inside, nature comes in through the large windows facing the garden. You won't find a TV here, but the record player, board games and high-speed fiber optic internet will keep you entertained. The house has been decorated and renovated with respect and love for the soul of the house.
The holiday home can accommodate a family of 5 people, who can spread out on the few, but good square meters. All bedrooms in the house have good beds, nice duvets and are decorated in bright colors. The house's annex is decorated with a lovely beach house feel, where you can open the doors and enjoy the garden directly from your bed.
The garden has plenty of cozy nooks and crannies where you can always find shelter, sun and shade. The garden is not large, but you can make new discoveries every day around the waterholes between the trees along the paths. There is a rich wildlife and the tranquillity of the forest comes all the way up to the terrace. Here you can sit until late at night under the shelter of the canopy, barbecue on the gas grill and warm up under the patio heater. If you prefer an open fire, you'll find the fire pit well placed in the shelter, and here you'll find pots, pans and a grill grate for whatever you want.
Under the large oak tree is the wonderful wilderness bath with stargazing on clear, dark evenings. Here you will find almost no light pollution - and the garden is secluded from the neighbors, so privacy is complete.

We are Rikke and Morten, and together we have four adult children. Rikke works as a youth counselor and family therapist in Skanderborg, and I am a firefighter at Thule Air Base in North Greenland. Our summer house was our first common base, it was where we had our first creative working communities and actually also where our children got to know each other properly. :-)
We both love living here on the edge of the forest, in the old plantation in Illeris, Vesthimmerland. We are fundamentally concerned that changes in and around the house and on the plot should be in harmony with nature and the original expression.
Having an old cottage together means a lot to us. The place gives us plenty of opportunities to live out creative ideas, renovate, play in the garden, enjoy the beach and life at the harbor, go for walks in the forest, cook on the fire, barbecue all year round, swim (all year round), relax together, alone, or with family and friends.
We have established a small herb garden with potatoes, herbs and rhubarb, which our guests can also use.
Our style is cozy, calm and relaxed. The look and feel of a room means a lot to both of us, which is why we strive to make every room, corner, inside and out, a pleasant place to be.
We love to cook together, play LP records, play games, make a fire, work in the garden, light up the hot tub, enjoy evenings with wine on the terrace .... and so much more.
The surrounding area offers plenty of opportunities. We love going on trips to the Lovns peninsula or watching the sunset from the beach by the fjord. There are great opportunities for fantastic hiking and cycling tours in the beautiful old plantations. Fishing in the local put and take, SUP and kayaking in the fjord are also possible.
On the beach a few 100m from us, there is a jetty, a dinghy for free use and crab fishing gear.
If we get hungry, we are more than happy to eat at Lene's place at the golf club. At the ferry pier, we often visit Det Lille Røgeri, which sells freshly caught fish, mussels and smoked products from the shop, take-away and café.
Local stalls in town offer fresh vegetables, eggs, firewood, flowers and flea markets.
It's also always a pleasure to play a game of golf at Hvalpsund Golf Club or have a lovely summer lunch at Næsbydale Badehotel, or visit the Glenholm vineyard, which also offers daily events.
Hvalpsund is not far from the islands of Mors, Livø, and Fur.
Pack your bag and get going. We would love to lend our house to you ❤️

The cottage was lovely and full of atmosphere. A well-executed concept with Rikke and Morten's Mosehytte. They paid attention to detail, and at the same time it was quiet and the house exuded a cottage atmosphere.
