General overview

We would love to welcome you to our house in Skødstrup 15 km from Aarhus, the second largest Danish city. It is a safe and quiet neighborhood by the fields, close to unspoiled forrest and wonderful beaches few minutes away, water activities (SUP, kayak, windsurfing etc), numerous cultural attractions (opera house, theater, festivals, museums (Aros with the "rainbow", Moesgaard etc), old city of Aarhus, historic monuments), high end/Michelin cuisine, and not to mention the great pastries, breweries, wineries and much more. The city has great shopping, also second hand stores. There is fantastic tracking, biking trails among the best in the world. It is also close to the large attraction Lego Land and Lego House. Denmark is a relatively small country but has so much to offer and great diversity and many who visit Aarhus, adore this city and see it as a true gem. It is also a great base to visit other areas of Denmark like the popular Samsø or Skagen (where the two oceans meet) and the list goes on :) We will gladly provide you with suggestions according to your preferences.

The space

We live in a newer 4 bedroom, 2 full bath (the primary bathroom with a build in tub, acces is through the primary bedroom with a big king size bed (210x210). The other rooms have 2 single beds and if traveling 5 the option is there for an ekstra single bed in the last bedroom/office. There is also a sleeping sofa in one of the bedrooms, but we have never used it as such. The large gourmet kitchen is where we spend a lot of time with our family. There is a wide range of kitchen equiptment, professional espresso machine, Quooker, foodprocessors, ice cream maker etc. Washer and dryer is in the laundry room for free use. Great sound with Sonos throughout the house for music and Apple tv. Nintendo Switch, Playstation and more. 2 decks, one large with a large perkula markise to keep the temperature comfortable during the summer. Our new swimspa is the perfect addition to a cozy holiday! Whether you're watching the kids play, relaxing in the hot tub, or getting a workout in the pool, it offers something for everyone. It's a wonderful space to unwind and enjoy family time, creating the perfect balance of fun and relaxation for your getaway. There is also an air conditioner in the living room area. and mosquito nets throughout the house to ensure fresh air without bugs. The other terrace is open but covered by roof of the house where you can relax in the hangig chair and enjoy the gardenview. It is very private with a large hedge around. In the back you can cook a meal at the luxurious bonfire, that provides great privacy, and a place shielded from the wind, where you can relax with a good book. It is truly a wonderful spot. The garden is closed /completely fenced in and has a large trampoline, playhouse, and outdoor games. There are bikes, that can be used as well as outdoor games and a SUP paddle board.

Guest access

There are 5 steps with carpet with railing separating the kitchen from the living room. Most of the house is with wooden floors and tiles. Mols, Djurs Sommerland (24 km), Legoland 114 km etc. Great museums especially Aros and Moesgaard. Moesgaard has the famous "gravballemanden", with maybe the best preserved marshy. The museum has popular and shifting exhibitions. There is the infinite bridge by the ocean close to the kings summer residense. Within walkning distance of the house approximately 800 meters to the train and bus. Beach within 5 km. Egå Engsø a few kilometers from Skødstrup is known for the various birdlife. Nationalpark Mols has among the best tracking tracks in the world and is 20 km. from our home.

Vicki

We are a family of 4. My husband Kasper and I and our 2 sons: Villads (11 years old), Lukas (8 years old) . I am a psychiatric nurse and Kasper is a CFO. We are looking forward to great experiences. We have exchanged multiple times in Denmark and several times through PLU. All have been very positive experiences. We love the authentic feel it gives to be in a home and getting to know the people we exhange with and provide them with tips and ideas as well as get great recommendations from the hosts. We are both nonsmokers and will take great care of your home and handle things with respect as it was our own and leave it clean and tidy. We have a dog, but we will not bring her on vacation as someone will take care of her while we travel. If you wish, you can read our reviews on airbnb as well. https://www.airbnb.dk/rooms/54315633?guests=1&adults=1&s=67&unique_share_id=a60b92a4-8795-44c8-a896-e17105194f17 Although for now, we are most keen on using this exhange platform, as it feels mere personal and is so giving.
