Come to Denmark and experience the homeland of H.C. Andersen and the vikings! We live in a beautiful little village nestled between Copenhagen (25 min) and Roskilde (10 min). We are surrounded by cherry trees, apple trees, berries and chestnut. Our village or community is focused on sustainability. We have our own 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 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, wonderful and safe world for children to explore, fast connection to Copenhagen, short distance to Roskilde harbor and Roskilde Fjord. Come and see for yourself!
Our house has room for 6+ people and is equipped with everything a family needs. It is made of sustainable materials and the air in the house is very clean.
Our home is "Nordic" in style with light wooden floors and beams. We have two private gardens and several that are shared with neighbours.
The space
Our house has room for 6+ people with three bedrooms and one mezzanine. Downstairs we have a kitchen and a living room in one, a bedroom and a "glass house" with a rocking chair. We also have two private gardens or terraces - one in the front and in the back of the 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.

We have a set of stairs, two floors + a mezzanine.
Notes
We have a cat, so be aware if you have allergies.

OPEN TO SWAPS IN 2024
We are a family of five living in Denmark in an eco-village called Munksøgård. Our children are 2, 5, and 10 years old. We had our first exchange experience this summer (2023), and we were very inspired. 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 community where we each have our separate houses, but share large green areas, access to lakes, playground and some warm and 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 and the air in the house is very clean. We have a cat that is part of the swap :-)
We are looking for simultaneous swaps in 2024.
