Welcoming holiday homes in Denmark

A little inland, sur­ro­un­ded by tall trees and lush forest areas, you will find the quaint town of Houstrup. Here you can enjoy a lovely holiday home break in the deep tranqui­li­ty of the forest and spend your time doing anything you like. Maybe you love the water and want to battle the waves of the North Sea, or perhaps you enjoy cycling and want to ex­pe­ri­en­ce the local area at your own pace? Here you set the pace and the agenda, and you decide whether you want to go on an excursion, relax by the beach or enjoy a quiet moment with a good book at the holiday home.

Lønstrup is a cosy fishing village where time appears to stop when you let yourself become ent­hral­led by the charming summer villas from the 1920s, popping up here and there the hills around the town. The town oozes cosy at­mosp­he­re and holiday spirit with narrow, long and winding streets showca­sing one great and well-preserved fisherman’s cottage after the other. Today, the fishermen’s cottages house cafés, re­stau­rants and various art workshops where you can enjoy the local artists’ works of art – and yes, maybe you can buy a local souvenir to take home? A stone’s throw from the town, you will find Lønstrup Strand, known for its clear water and beautiful dune landsca­pes.

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.
