Close to the small coastal town of Ålbæk in the very north of Jutland, this area is known for its pretty beaches and beautiful light. Surrounded by nature, but with plenty of family-friendly attractions nearby too, it's a great spot for an active break. And just a short walk from the beach, this traditional holiday home has everything you could need for a comfortable and fun stay – there's even free admission to the nearby water park.

After exploring the coast all day, you can relax on the huge wraparound deck, play games of pool or table football inside, or pull up a chair around the fire pit while the kids have one last swing in the garden before bed. With a log burner and an eco-conscious heat pump, you'll be cosy during winter stays, while summer breaks mean you can make the most of the sun loungers and barbecue.
