Welcoming holiday homes in Denmark

Col­loqui­al­ly, Saltum is known as the “Alps of Jam­mer­bug­ten” and not without reason! With the open spaces and luxuriant green fields, Saltum stands out from the other areas in the holiday landscape. If you are lucky, you may even see grazing animals on the hills – like a scene from All Creatures Great and Small. The town of Saltum is espe­ci­al­ly popular for its long-standing tradition of handmade arts and craft in textile and ceramics. So do not miss out on a visit to the local town artisan to find a unique and memorable souvenir to take home.

Ertebølle is known for its hi­sto­ri­cal sig­ni­fi­can­ce and bre­ath­taking nature. The area offers a fa­sci­nat­ing look at the history of hunter-gatherers during the Stone Age. Visit the im­pres­si­ve Stone Age Centre Ertebølle where you can immerse yourself into the lives of ancient Stone Age people, who lived 7,000 years ago, through in­te­r­a­cti­ve ex­pe­ri­en­ces such as hunting, sailing and fl­int­k­nap­ping for Ertebølle Hoved, a unique cliff with layers of volcanic ash, is a testament to the di­stin­cti­ve ge­o­lo­gi­cal features of the area. The cliff offers excellent op­portu­ni­ties to find fossils and un­der­stand why this place is so special that it has become a candidate for the UNESCO World Heritage List.

On the north coast, the landscape is dramatic, and the views are bre­ath­taking—Allinge is no exception. The town borders the fa­sci­nat­ing area around Hammeren, offering some of Denmark’s most specta­cu­lar natural en­viron­ments. Allinge harbour is a gathering point with a great at­mosp­he­re offering cafés, ice cream shops, eateries, and shops. The town is cha­ra­cte­ri­sed by half-timbered houses in every colour, narrow streets, and cosy squares. You can explore small, cosy oases. Allinge also offers art and culture in various forms and is home to venues, creative workshops, and the annual jazz festival.
