Thatched cottage on Fur – a prime wa­ter­front location by the Limfjord

Dreaming of a holiday in peaceful and beautiful natural sur­ro­un­dings? Then this charming cottage on Fur, situated in the front row to Færker Vig with a stunning view over the salt marsh and water, is de­fi­ni­te­ly worth a closer look.

Welcome inside
This thatched cottage has stood here on the east coast of the beautiful Limfjord island since 1974 and has since been renovated to serve as a lovely holiday home for up to six people. The kitchen has been mo­der­ni­sed, and there is a flat-screen TV with DVD player in the house — but no Wi-Fi, giving you the chance to take a break from social media if you need it. In the living room, you can light the wood-burning stove before curling up on the sofa with hot tea and a crossword puzzle or gather around the dining table for some cosy board game time. On the ground floor, you will also find a shower bathroom and a bedroom, while the first floor offers two rooms with extra sleeping spaces. Please note that one of the rooms is a walk-through room, which also gives access to a covered balcony.

Enjoy life outside
Having a balcony on the first floor is nice, but you will probably spend even more time relaxing on the large terrace area sur­ro­un­ding the house. Part of the terrace is covered, and here you will find, among other things, a fish cleaning table if you’ve been lucky on your fishing trip. In the evenings, you can grill your own catch — or al­ter­na­ti­ve­ly something from the su­per­mar­ket — while enjoying the peaceful and scenic sur­ro­un­dings. The lawn on the natural plot is de­light­ful­ly spacious, and connected to the terrace is a fenced dog run of about 200 m².

Get up close to the local at­tra­ctions
A holiday on Fur means un­for­get­tab­le ex­pe­ri­en­ces in stunning natural sur­ro­un­dings. Via a private path, it’s only 200 metres to the beach, and here at Færker Vig, you have good chances of catching sea trout and garfish in spring. Fur is espe­ci­al­ly known for the steep moler cliffs on the north coast, where you can hunt for fossils or simply take a walk in the specta­cu­lar landscape. At Fur Museum, you can see the most re­mar­kab­le fossils and learn more about Denmark’s ge­o­lo­gi­cal history. When hunger strikes, there are several great places to eat on the island — including a re­stau­rant at Fur Brewery, which also offers guided tours and hosts concerts.
