Nearest airport
Billund airport 1 hour and 15 minutes and Copenhagen airport 2 hours and 20 minutes, coming from Copenhagen you will have to drive over a told bridge to get to Fyn.
Getting Around
We are 10 minutes drive from Bogense town with all shopping amenities , restaurants and pubs.
We have buses going from close to our home, but they are not convenient and it will eat up a lot of time in traveling around.. A car is not mandatory but will make your life a lot more enjoyable here. So with all said we would suggest a car to tour around from our place.

I had the pleasure of hosting Mike and Majbritt earlier on when they lived on Vancouver Island. Since then, they moved to Denmark. This meant that we had the opportunity to visit lovely Fyn for a weekend. We would have LOVED to tay longer, but this time around we only had a weekend. Their home is a cosy little farmhouse style house in the country side surrounded by fields and nature. The night sky was amazing to watch and there was no light pollution, which I enjoyed when I took the dogs out for their evening walks. The house has everything we needed for our little weekend get away, is was cosy and comfortable and enbaled us to just pull the plug and relax. They had sent out the house manual beforehand, which was nice. As we arrived in the dark it was great to know exactly how and where to find the door keys and the light switches :-D when we got inside, we had a lovely welcome note and lots of treats - thank you <3 We just chilled Friday evening and then Saturday we went exploring some of the nearby area. We took the dogs to for a lovely walk at Gyldensteen Nature park area. We had gorgeous Fall weather and I love the season of changing colours. From there we went to Bogense and strolled around and found the local Manneken Pis! As we've just returned from a visit to Brussels, it was a fun surprise. not much was open in town, but we had an ice cream at the harbour before heading home and chilling. Sunday we went for a run, which is a great way to explore the nearby scenery as well. Fyn is quite flat and their home is in the country side wich gave a peacecul and quiet vibe, that we enjoyed. Bogense is only 10 km away, so it is a perfect mix if you want to shop, go out to eat etc. The weekend flew by, so we only got a taste of what's there. As it is only about 3 hours drive from my home, we are hoping to return at some point with a bit more time to explore even more. Majbritt and Mike have a cat, that always go with them when they are away and they graciously let me bring me two easy going senior doggies, which great. We've met out hosts on a couple of different occasions and they are such a nice and fun couple to be around and super easy to comminicate with. Fyn may not seem like a hot spot, but I can highly recommend giving it a go and if you do, basing yourself at Majbritt and Mikes home will be a great start and they are excellent exchange partners. -
Thank you Mike and Majbritt for letting us stay in your home. MM's home has many delicate collections of items and at first we were worried that our young kids might destroy something but this went fine fortunately :) To get the best experience of MMs home you will need a car as it is remotely located. MM's home is great for exploring the island of Fyn and the lovely city of Odense (with many things to do, the HC Andersen museum was one of our favorites). The home is also close to several beaches. All in all we had a great week vacation in MM'S home. The hosts were friendly and responded to our questions quickly. -
Thankful for our first exchange, this house was very special, and we appreciate their courage to host a family with young kids. We were blessed by their generous food gift and also good advice about what's happening in the area. -
We were lucky enough to spend a week in Mike and Majbritt's house and were immediately charmed: their house, with a splendid thatched roof, is in the middle of the fields and on the edge of a small lake. There is even a boat available! Their exterior is very nice, we were able to eat outside every day and there is even a covered outdoor lounge for rainy days. We were able to do some wonderful hikes (I recommend Aebelo 2 minutes from the house) and even try sea kayaking. A city day allowed us to visit the great Andersen Museum in Odense. Don't hesitate to go, it was a great week! -
What an awesome sim exchange with Majbritt and Mike. We spent 9 days exploring the area that has so much to offer. Great for outdoor activities, we took lots of walks and rode our bikes along beautiful nature and coastal areas. Explored several of the towns in the area, including Denmarks 3rd largest city, Odense, which is easily reached by car in half an hour with its nice downtown area and museums. The beautiful castle Egeskov was also a nice daytrip. It was so nice to come back to their cozy, comfortable home at the end of the day, usually enjoying a drink on the nice covered patio, watching the cute family of sheep in the pasture next door. We had great communication with Majbritt and Mike throughout our stay. -
Majbritt and Mike's house looks just like in the pictures, and everything is accurately described. The house is beautiful, full of details from all their travels, which I would love to hear more about. In front of the house, there's a view of oilseed rape fields, and behind the house is a beautiful lake. Communication with Majbritt is excellent; she left many instructions for getting around their home, as well as all the surrounding areas. The whole area is interesting and worth visiting. I definitely recommend it! -
The exchange with Mike and Majbritt was our first. We are glad that we managed to arrange this wonderful place in Denmark. And our start with homeexchange was a hit and showed us that traveling with PLU is so much more pleasant than in hotels and guesthouses. The tastefully furnished house is located in a beautiful secluded spot by the lake. Living in an original house with a reed roof is a wonderful experience. Even though we traveled out of season, the spring weather was beautiful, so we were able to use the garden and terrace. We didn't miss anything in the house's facilities. Communication with Majbritt is and was very pleasant, nothing was a problem to solve. Even though the house is located in the Danish countryside, we didn't miss anything, shops, the sea and cultural experiences were within half an hour's drive. We learned that Denmark for children is not only Legoland, but also offers a large number of museums, zoos and parks. We will definitely be happy to return to this country. Thank you Majbritt and Mike for a wonderful week in their beautiful home. -
Thanks for the kind words, you guys was a pleasure to have as guests. Looking forward to exploring in and around your place 🙂

We had an amazing stay in Mike and Majbritt’s house. We are very grateful for the offer of an exchange and would highly recommend their home to everyone. It was spotlessly clean and very well equipped with a pretty, private garden. They kindly let us borrow their electric bikes and amazing blow up kayaks too which we all loved. The best bit about their home though is the location. It’s 30 minutes drive to the Nanaimo ferry. It’s an easy drive to beautiful lakes and countryside and a two hour drive to Tofino and Victoria. If you want to explore the island it’s centrally located. If you love nature you will love their house and you may even get a glimpse of a humming bird in their garden. We also saw a black bear and numerous eagles whilst staying on the island. We also had the pleasure of meeting them both. They are super lovely friendly people and very relaxed. If you exchange with their house you will not be disappointed. -
Mike and Majbritts place is a great location for exploring the island and was a good base for us. Its comfortable and well equipped and we really appreciated the use of their e bikes and kayaks. We loved seeing the humming birds and enjoyed the deck and garden. The local town has useful shops and eateries and the beach has fantastic sunsets. Great communication throughout. Vancouver Island has so many fab places to visit and explore. We recommend! -
Mike and Maibritt's home is perfectly located on Vancouver Island if you want to see some of the whole island. Their home is cozy and well furnished and nothing is missing. The property has a lovely enclosed garden with hummingbirds and birds visiting. We immediately felt at home and enjoyed the lovely surroundings. We can highly recommend others who want to experience Vancouver Island to get in touch. Mike and Maibritt are lovely to talk to.
