Circus wagon on beloved Danish island
Among the Danish islands, Ærø often stands out as one of the most charming. With its natural beauty, waterfront views, and the cozy atmosphere of Ærøskøbing, it’s a place that is hard to match elsewhere in Denmark. If you’re looking for a unique overnight experience during your visit to Ærø, consider staying in an 11-meter-long circus wagon just outside Marstal. Known as the Circus Wagon on Ærø, it’s the brainchild of couple Anna and David Gjerluf Brandenhoff, with artistic decorations by Jonas Pihl.
Hotel or private home?
On the western Swedish archipelago coast lies a place unlike any other – Lådfabriken. Converted from an old factory, this establishment straddles the line between a private home and a hotel. With four rooms and a treehouse, the Swedish couple Johan and Dutch Marcel run everything, including the homemade dinner you can opt to enjoy with other guests. If privacy is your priority, Lådfabriken might not be for you. But if you’re open to experiencing a place that stands out from typical hotels and enjoy socializing over dinner, Lådfabriken is ideal.
Glass cabin at Lolland’s prime spot
The location is unbeatable. Glashytten, as it is called, is Michael Rubio and Hoa Pham’s tiny house project situated in Torrig, adjacent to Knuthenborg Safari Park, the captivating stone sculptures of Dodekalitten, and the harbor in Kragenæs, where you can embark on trips to islands like Fejø and Femø. The Glass Cabin is designed with one-third as a ‘greenhouse’ and features a double bed positioned to offer views of wheat fields and distant forests.
Alone deep in the forest
Two brothers have created Hyssna Forest Resort southeast of Gothenburg, where three distinct treehouses are nestled among trunks and lush moss, giving the feel of a five-star hotel in the wilderness. The main attraction here is the sense of solitude. Breakfast is delivered outside your cabin in the morning, the spa is heated up later (with provided robes, slippers, and towels), and dinner is ready in the fridge – you just have to cook it yourself.
Four meters above ground in West Zealand
There’s been a surge in interest in treehouses, and that’s a good thing – being elevated above the forest floor with a view is fundamentally fascinating. One such place to experience this is in Dalmose in West Zealand, where you can overlook fields from a cabin four meters above the ground. Married couple Ruth and Poul Bek-Pedersen are behind this initiative, aiming to invigorate the local area by building three treehouses on the edge of their forest.
