Kerteminde

Blog Denmark 2021

This pretty town was a delight. The marina had great facilities, including working wi-fi – quite a treat!

But the real attraction was the beautifully preserved house and gardens of the Danish artists Johannes and Ahled Larsen. It was charming, and stuffed full of their own paintings and gifts from their visiting artist friends. Everything was left exactly as it was when they lived there in the early 20th century, right down to the garden geese.

A very tidy kitchen
The dining room with winter murals
We particularly admired the stove in the study

While we both admired the paintings on the walls, William was especially thrilled with the central heating plumbing 🙂 so a great day out for all.

The little cafe had a lovely terrace overlooking the bay, and served delicious almond and apple cake with a thermos flask of strong coffee. A lovely end to our afternoon ashore.
