Beautiful townhouse near the Wedding Hall in Ærøs­kø­bing

Welcome inside

The charming townhouse dates from 1810 and has been com­ple­te­ly renovated until 2025. The old details have been preserved, and inside it is bright and friendly with a décor that makes it easy to feel at home. In the kitchen-dining room you can cook together and open the door directly to the garden. The cozy living room invites you to an evening on the sofa, whether you are on a honeymoon or have just taken a few days out of the calendar to enjoy Ærøskøbing together.

The house is located only 200 meters from the wedding hall in Ærøskøbing. With the short walk to the wedding ceremony, the house is par­ti­cu­lar­ly suitable for a wedding stay on Ærø. Here you can get ready in quiet sur­ro­un­dings, follow through the cobbled streets and return home to your own little place in the Fairytale City at the end of the day.

The house has an entrance hall, a nice bathroom and two bedrooms with a double bed. One is on the ground floor and the other on the first floor. You can therefore also share the house with a couple of your loved ones if they are going to the wedding.

Enjoy life outside

Behind the house is an un­dis­tur­bed, fenced courtyard. Here you can take your first cup of coffee outside, enjoy lunch in the open air or toast to each other when you get home from the wedding ceremony. With direct access from the kitchen-dining room, it is easy to set the table outside when the weather beckons.

From Søndergade it is only 300 meters to Ærøskøbing's cozy harbor en­viron­ment. Walk down and watch the boats come in, or continue along the water to Ve­ster­strand, which is a kilometer from the house. The small, colorful bat­hhou­ses along the beach are one of Ærøskøbing's finest motifs, whether you have your camera with you for wedding photos or are just out for an evening walk.

Get close to local ex­pe­ri­en­ces

Ærøskøbing is Ærø's second largest town, and a walk from Søndergade through the old town centre makes it easy to un­der­stand the nickname Fairytale City. The well-kept houses stand close together along the cobbled streets, and around every corner there is a new colour, a nice old door or a small window to notice. Take the time to take a detour. Here you will find cafés, re­stau­rants and spe­ci­a­list shops between the old houses, and the selection is sur­pri­sing­ly large for a town with around 900 in­ha­bi­tants.

The weddings leave their mark on city life all year round. On an ordinary walk, you can meet a newlywed couple on their way through the streets in party clothes or watch wedding guests gather in front of the colourful facades. If you are getting married here, you have both the town's small streets and the harbour close by for photos and a walk together after the wedding. If you or your guests come from Funen, M/F Marstal and M/F Ærøskøbing connect the city with Svendborg. From the ferry berth, it is a short distance to the house.

Marstal is Ærø's largest town and was once Denmark's second largest maritime town, surpassed only by Co­pen­ha­gen. Start the tour at the harbour, where boats, shipyards and harbour buildings tell their part of the story. Shipping is still part of everyday life in the town. At Marstal Navi­ga­tion School, navi­ga­tors have been trained for more than 150 years, and the school is still educating new ge­ne­ra­tions for life at sea.

At Marstal Maritime Museum, you get close to the people who left and the families who waited at home. Ship models, pho­to­grap­hs and things that the sailors brought home from their voyages give the great stories a personal touch. Many of the faces in the old pictures belong to families with roots in the city, and it is precisely the local stories that make a visit worth setting aside time for.

From the harbor you can continue up Kirkestræde and Kon­gens­ga­de. Here you will find shops, cafés and re­stau­rants, and there is good reason to slow down and take a lunch break. In the summer, By Night gathers people in the streets for music and evening shopping. Later in the year, the street scene changes with Halloween decora­tions and Christmas lights, which the local merchants help to put up.

Søby is the smallest of Ærø's three main towns. Here, small half-timbered houses and newer houses lie side by side, and the harbour is a good place to start the trip. In a few minutes you can walk up to Søby Church from 1745. Close by is Søby Mill, the town's landmark, from where you can look out over the town. If you want to walk a little further, you can head towards Vitsø Beach and see the old fis­her­men's houses by the water.

If you continue north through the village of Haven, you will come to Skjoldnæs Ligh­t­hou­se on the nort­hwestern tip of Ærø. The round ligh­t­hou­se was built in Bornholm granite in 1881 and still sends its light out over the sea at night. From the top of the 22-metre-high ligh­t­hou­se, you can look out over the Little Belt, the South Funen Ar­chipela­go and the Baltic Sea in clear weather. Around the ligh­t­hou­se is Ærø Golf Club's coastal course, where the sea view follows you from hole to hole.

On Ærø, the ex­pe­ri­en­ces are close by. On the same day, you can go from morning coffee in Søndergade to lunch at the harbor and an afternoon among small villages, open fields and stretches of coastline. There is room for both a quick bite to eat at the harbor and a long dinner at one of the island's re­stau­rants. The island's free bus connects Ærøskøbing, Marstal and Søby with the villages along the way, so you can also leave the car parked.

At Fe­ri­e­part­ner Ærø, we know the island and are always present, available and close by if you need us. Feel free to ask us where we go for a walk when the wind blows in from the sea, or where we would book a table for an evening that can last a little longer.
