Welcoming holiday homes in Denmark

Svendborg is known as the most beautiful market town of Southern Funen. Ori­gi­nal­ly an old seafaring town, it offers a really special maritime at­mosp­he­re with seaviews and a harbour en­viron­ment buzzing with life. The old seafaring town oozes historic charm. You ex­pe­ri­en­ce the history of Southern Funen up close by paying the Latin Quarter, the oldest part of Svendborg, a visit. In the Latin Quarter, you can visit an abundance of stores and small local shops and sample local de­li­ca­cies in the re­stau­rants and cafés of the area. Svendborg town centre is also the hub of various musical events all year round, creating life in the streets to a degree.

On the southern part of Ærø, you will find the small village of Dunkær. Here you can ex­pe­ri­en­ce quiet nature and real rural bliss. The small winding roads are lined by homely cottages side by side, adorning the co­un­trysi­de. And in the town, you will also find Dunkær Mill that bear witness to the history of the village and the active agri­cul­tu­re of former times. Just 4 km from the village, you have Risemark Strand on the southern coast of Ærø for you to enjoy a sandy beach and lapping waves. The beach is extremely child-friendly with its shallow water and it should be noted that the beach has a de­sig­na­ted area for naturists.

Marstal is the largest town on Ærø with a proud maritime history which is why the town is also known as “Skipper Town” col­loqui­al­ly. This sense of pride par­ti­cu­lar­ly manifests itself in the local town life. The harbour is a well-known gathering place for townspe­op­le and ho­li­day­ma­kers, and the maritime museum is one of the major at­tra­ctions in the area. Here you can delve into the maritime history of the town and enjoy exhi­bi­tions on the shipping trade. The town centre features a lovely shopping street and here you can shop to your heart’s content and sample local de­li­ca­cies. And a mere stone’s throw from Marstal, you will find Eriks Hale Strand over­look­ing some of the colourful beach huts on the island.
