    The setting is wonderful, directly on the lake. The cabins are comfortable, cosy and had everything we need. The staff were lovely. This was a perfect stay after the more hectic pace of Copenhagen.

    We didn’t try the breakfast, as we were in a self-catering cabin. The location is fantastic! It is off the beaten track, right on the lake, surrounded by hiking trails, peaceful and geared for an active vacation. The staff is very accommodating....

    Great small and cosy rooms close to the Skanderborg Lake. It is a hostel i.e. not a hotel, so it is kind of selfservice, but in the good way. You can buy coffee, ice-cream and snacks in the reception. A great place to relax and enjoy beautiful...

    La struttura è molto accogliente e ha tutto per passare un soggiorno sereno. Il cottage che abbiamo prenotato era funzionale e aveva tutto il necessario. C'è la possibilità di usufruire della biancheria. Gli spazi esterni sono curati.
