Enjoy Life Outdoors

Despite its small size, the house offers lovely outdoor spaces. At the front, a small terrace invites you to enjoy your morning coffee in the sun while watching the slow rhythm of local life. At the rear, a private, enclosed courtyard with access to Sølvgade awaits – a hidden gem for relaxing in shelter from the wind, enjoying outdoor meals, or spending long summer evenings under the open sky. This intimate courtyard offers privacy in the heart of town – a place to lean back and let peace settle in. And if you're tempted by a swim, Marstal’s small and calm beach is just a short walk away. Its shallow waters are perfect for a re­fres­hing morning dip or a quiet moment with your feet in the water and your eyes on the horizon.

Explore the Local Ex­pe­ri­en­ces

With its central location in Marstal, the townhouse is the perfect base for di­scove­ring the maritime soul and local charm of Ærø. Marstal is the island’s largest town, steeped in history – espe­ci­al­ly from its days as Denmark’s most important seafaring hub. Wander through narrow cobb­le­sto­ne streets lined with hol­lyho­cks, visit the fa­sci­nat­ing Marstal Maritime Museum, or enjoy lunch at one of the harbour cafés. If you’re up for further expl­ora­tion, the island offers great op­portu­ni­ties for cycling, hiking, and boat trips along the coast and to nearby villages. A visit to Ærøskøbing is also a must – with its colourful houses and de­light­ful courtyard shops. On Ærø, time slows down, allowing for re­flection, to­get­her­ness, and true holiday joy – and with Skip­per­ga­de 6 as your base, you’re at the heart of it all.
