Dur til mental health challenges we are, unfortunately unable to make an exchange at the moment. We hope to be back again in 2027.
Our house is almost 200 m2 filled with the trademarked Danish hygge. We live in the countryside and love it with the great views and the quietness! However, we are still less than 10 minutes by car from the highway (E45) as well as to towns with lots of shops and everything you need for your stay.
The Space
We have blocked the front entrance to make a library, so you will enter through the door in the yard. That will let you into our mudroom. From the mudroom you enter our lovely blue kitchen - it is North faced and therefore doesn't get much sun, but that is also why it is so cosy with the bar counter and play kitchen. From the kitchen you also have a perfect view of any children playing in the yard.
The kitchen leads to the living room, which is huge and has plenty of room for guests (we once had 28 students from Miriam's work, for coffee and cake in there). The living room is also where the sunset/rise in the pictures are taken. We don't have a television but we do have a large play area in the living room.
From the living room you can enter our library and are welcome to read anything in there, most of it is in English. A small toilet hides under the stairs that take you to an open area upstairs, which is our office. Frederik has build alcove beds here which fit 2-3 kids or a couple of adults and is very cozy! Upstairs you also find our bedroom with a large cosleeping bed (fancy way of saying we put 3 twin beds together and have a 270*200 bed).
On our property, we have a small forest on a hill and on top of that hill, you will find our Norwegian cabin hidden. The former owners had is transported from Norway and put up. It sleeps four (quite comfortable beds, that definitely works for adults) and is heated.
Guest Access
Since the bathroom is upstairs you will need to use stairs when you stay here.
Notes
We moved here in 2017 and have been renovating and redecorating every since (and probably won't stop, but don't tell Frederik that!). However we also live here, so we strive to not let the building stuff make a mess.

The closest airports are in Aarhus and Aalborg. The closest one with many international flights are Billund. Esbjerg might also be a possibility.
Getting Around
When you stay at our house you will need a car. We might be able to exchange cars with you. We also have a couple of bikes you can use, the road right outside our house goes around a lake and is very popular for biking. You can also bike to both Mariager and Hobro in about 20 minutes and here you will find shops, playgrounds and other great stuff.

We are a young responsible couple just starting our family. We enjoy exploring new places at a slower pace as well as "staying in" and reading and relaxing together. While we have young children we will mostly travel where we can drive from Denmark within 8-9 hours (or fly within a couple of hours).
People Like Us is the world's most trusted home exchange community. We believe in sharing, trust, generosity, respect, communication, equality, cooperation, honesty, hospitality, friendship, flexibility and adventure. We take pride in our homes and we care about the environment in which we live: our village, city, country and our planet. We care about the ethos of home exchange and we do it because we love the experience and the friendships that it generates.
Our cozy blue kitchen has everything you need for preparing food :)
As well as coffee. We are in Denmark, after all.
A couple of high chairs are hiding behind the counter and the huge play kitchen is to the left.
Frederik build us a couch that fits perfectly, and we love to hang out in this corner.
The play area in the living room takes up half the room, and we change it around quite often to fit what our daughter likes to do at the moment. This is just an example.

We have a third bed between this bed and the wall now, so the bed is 270*200.

Inside the cabin it's very cozy and the matresses are really good, even an adult can sleep comfortably - so go ahead and let the teenagers (or grandparents) sleep/snore by themself.
The front of our house. The picture is taken before we moved in, and I'm afraid we are in need of a repaint and we definitely have more weeds than on the picture. It's still lovely though!
The living museeum Wiking Center Fyrkat is close by and filled with fun stuff for all ages
The park "the World Map" is half an hour away and has a replica of the world made in small scale to walk around. It's quite fun and definitely a great geography lesson for everyone.
The village of Mariager is always worth a visit with it's lovely old houses and plenty of roses. It's only 7 kilometers from our house and definitely doable on bikes, even for the kids.
The Saltcenter is also in Mariager, here you can see how salt is made and the history in relation to this. There is also a salt pool and a few water-related activities for kids.
