General Overview

We would love to welcome you to our home in Denmark - homeland of H.C. Andersen and the vikings! We live in a beautiful little eco village just 25 minutes by train from Copenhagen city. The village has a strong community, and you will meet and greet our friendly and helpful neighbours. We live in the historic city Roskilde - former Viking capital. We are surrounded by cherry trees, apple trees, berries and chestnut. It is paradise for children to explore safely with no cars and friendly animals to say hello to. In the village we have a farm shop with all organic vegetables, nuts, cheese, beers, wine, chocolate and much more. It is open two hours a day (not in July though). On site you will find sheep, goats, horses, rabbits - they are not ours, so you will not need to care for them. We have a cat though, that you would have to take good care of 🐈 We have a clean lake on site you can swim in, a shared playground with basket, trampoline, swings and more. We have bikes for all ages - also electric bikes to take you on a fast trip along the coast. We love everything about our home: social village life, easy access to nature, a wonderful and safe world for children to explore, fast connection to Copenhagen, short distance to Roskilde harbour and Roskilde Fjord. Come and see for yourself! Our house has room for 6 people (115 m2) and is equipped with everything a family needs. It is made of sustainable materials and has all the things to make your stay comfortable; dishwasher, coffee maker, bathtub etc. Our home is "Nordic" in style with light wooden floors and beams. We have two private gardens and several green areas that are shared with neighbours. Don’t hesitate to get in contact and let’s exchange ❤️

The Space

Our house has room for 6 people with two bedrooms and one mezzanine. Downstairs we have a kitchen and a living room in one, a bedroom and a "greenery" with a rocking chair. We also have two private gardens or terraces - one in the front of the house and one behind our house. Upstairs we have two bedrooms, one bathroom with a tub and a shower, a living room plus a mezzanine where two people can sleep. All in all we have place for 8 people to sleep in the house, if they don't mind sharing a doublebed. The house is surrounded by green areas, and though we are close to Copenhagen and Roskilde city centre, it feels like a green sanctuary with no cars.

Guest Access

We have a set of stairs, two floors + a mezzanine.

Notes

We have a cat, so be aware if you have allergies. We will provide you with a house guide if we agree to exchange.

Just behind our house is a nature area with mountain bike trails and walking paths, three clean lakes to swim in and a few shelters where you can light a bonfire. From the house you can explore the rest of Denmark or go to Sweden. We are placed ideally to explore both north of Zealand and Jutland as well.

Sidselmarie

We are a family of five living in Denmark in an eco-village called Munksøgård. Our children are 3, 7, and 12 years old. We have had a couple of great exchange experiences since 2023. We have many years of experience with renting out our place via other platforms. We love to travel with our children, and find that home exchange makes so much sense and adds a cultural- and a friendship - aspect to the travel that is not found in a hotel. The village that we live in is a small eco community where we each have our separate houses, but share large green areas, access to lakes, playground and 5 beautiful common houses. In the heart of the community is an old farm house where some villagers have horses. Other villagers take care of sheep, goats and rabbits - this means an easy access to experience animals without having to care for them - usually a big plus for children! We have a wonderful bright house in Denmark, Scandinavia, in Roskilde close to Copenhagen. Easy connection to both Sweden and all of the coastline in North of Zealand. Roskilde is a historical city known for vikings, the fjord, the harbour, the music festival, the 387 year old cathedral and much more. Our house has room for 6+ people and is equipped with everything a family needs. It is made of sustainable materials. We have a cat that is part of the swap :-) We are looking for simultaneous swaps, non simultaneous swaps og globe exchanges in 2025-2026.
