Welcoming holiday homes in Denmark

North of Kolding, where the Little Belt narrows and bridges connect Jutland and Funen, you will find Fre­de­ri­cia. A historic hub with plenty of cultural offerings. The city’s signature at­tra­ction, Fre­de­ri­cia Rampart, is among Europe’s largest preserved fortres­ses and offers fa­sci­nat­ing city walks that bring the city’s military history to life. Go whale watching on the Little Belt or visit the Mads­by­par­ken park with the family – a free excursion spot with lots of fun and play. In the city centre a lively pe­de­stri­an street awaits with shopping options ranging from local spe­ci­a­li­ties to in­ter­na­tio­nal shops.

Saksild Strand is a popular holiday home area just outside the town of Saksild. The area is par­ti­cu­lar­ly well-known for its beautiful beach of the same name. Indeed, the beach is actually referred to as one of East Jutland’s best beaches. Here there is white sand and calm waters without large waves and un­dercur­rents. And of course, the beach has also been awarded Blue Flag-cer­ti­fi­ca­tion for such fine swimming con­di­tions. In and around the holiday home area you will find several good eateries and a nearby ice cream house known for its great ice cream. From Saksild Strand you have a 20-minute drive to Aarhus, while you can get to Odder in 10 minutes.

South of Aarhus you will find the holiday home area, Mariendal Strand. Near the area is the beach, which is sur­ro­un­ded by natural sur­ro­un­dings and has a cosy fire pit. Here you can enjoy views of Aarhus Bay while roasting mars­h­mal­lows over an open fire with your feet planted in the fine sand. If you like biking, you can cycle towards Aarhus to the forests of Moesgaard and Mar­se­lis­borg, which stretch all the way down to the coast. And when visiting this area, you might want to visit the Moesgaard Museum, which has several exhi­bi­tions of ar­cha­e­o­lo­gi­cal finds, including the Grauballe Man, who - probably - is the world’s most well-preserved bog body.
