Danish Highlights

The excellent roads, scenic countryside and charming half timbered buildings make Denmark perfect for a relaxed motoring holiday. Traffic is light and the country peppered with Inns (Kros) offering traditional Danish hospitality, good food and a warm welcome. 

Those we have chosen have their own characteristics but uniformly high standards and range in style from traditional half timbered to modern Scandinavian. All rooms have private WC and shower: most also have colour TV and telephone.

Denmark’s most scenic route, the ‘Marguerite’, is perfect for discovering the many quintessentially Danish villages throughout Juland and Fynen and our routes pick up as much of this trail as possible

Featured here are 3 itineraries of differing duration showcasing Denmark’s most scenic areas along with Copenhagen which is, of course, a must on any visit to Denmark.. But we can amend these in any way, shape or form to tailor make a route for you – just pick up the phone or e-mail us.
