Store Klit 44
Beautiful location, idyllic holiday home in the dunes where you can really feel the calm descend. You are in the middle of nature and can enjoy wildlife up close. If you fancy a trip to the beach, it's just a 500 meter walk. The house inside is tastefully decorated and exudes cosiness. You can warm yourself by the wood-burning stove, throw a record on the record player and just relax. We love this little gem and hope you enjoy it as much as we do. Best regards, Mette and Ole
