Set in the leafy suburbs of Stockholm, this home offers perfect peace while still being within easy reach of the city. Open the door of this handsome wooden house and you'll find yourself in a bright space that's bursting with that quintessentially Scandi style. Despite its minimalism, there are still plenty of cosy touches, from the movie room, ideal for snuggling up with a blockbuster, to the wood-burning stove which provides a warming atmosphere as you share a meal at the long dining table. Outside, there's plenty of space to enjoy alfresco feasts cooked on the grill, and even your very own swimming pool – take a refreshing dip, or simply laze in the sun as you watch the kids splash about. There's also a tennis court and golf course close by, and a five-minute walk will bring you down to the nearby lake. This corner of paradise might make you forget that you're so close to the bright lights of Stockholm but, should you want to visit the cobbled streets of the old town, you can drive there in around fifteen minutes.

Child Friendly

Sitting close to the coastline on one of the approximately 24,000 islands in the Stockholm Archipelago, this address benefits from not only a private dock, but also a motor boat you can borrow to explore your surroundings a little further. Alternatively, if you're more than content to sit and admire it from afar, there are alfresco tables in the pretty garden from which to dine and gaze out at peaceful waters.

This being Scandinavia, there are certain points in the year in which you'll simply want to coop up inside and it's more than possible to get toasty and warm here. Not only are there wood-burning fireplaces dotted about the communal spaces, but there's also one in the spa-style bathroom, complete with a tub and relaxation area. We're also particularly fond of the homely design throughout, from the rustic kitchens and bright living spaces to the soft rugs underfoot.

Part of the beauty of this address is its sense of isolation and privacy, although this does mean you'll have to hop in the car and potentially on a ferry for restaurants and attractions. That being said, the host can arrange for a private chef to visit the home, which makes life easier somewhat.



Where the Magic Happens

Free Parking On Street

Access to Beach

Surrounded by a fragrant garden and blessed with an uninterrupted view over the sea, this spectacular escape is tailor-made for magical stays when seemingly endless summer days span almost eighteen hours.

Built back in 1902 and painted in that iconic red hue that epitomises rural Sweden, this spacious and sprawling holiday home has maintained many of its original features over the proceeding century. When combined with its secluded island location, one of some 30,000 that make up the Stockholm archipelago, it's perfect for those seeking that all-too-rare feeling of disconnection from the frenetic pace of modern life.

Despite its remoteness, the house is just a few minutes by car or boat from the vibrant archipelago town of Vaxholm, with its tempting bakeries, fishmongers selling fresh seafood, a surprisingly international array of restaurants, plus supermarkets for stocking up on essentials. However, it's easy enough to maintain your island idyll should you want to.

With a private beach, a stunning sauna that looks out over the water, a private dock for jumping off afterwards, plus an expansive lawn for picnic lunches and outdoor games, why would you want to leave?

Brimming with natural light, Danish design furniture, as well as a lovely garden that invites you to spend time with your loved ones, Look At You is one of those homes you’ll never want to leave. It is a family home to perfection, and it has a modern, fully equipped kitchen with everything you need to cook up a feast. While there’s only one bathroom, we love that it has both a bathtub and a shower, a rarity in Copenhagen. Located in peaceful Frederiksberg, charming Værnedamsvej is close by, and so are the lakes, a popular spot to go for a walk.

The Art Director is swanky in every way. A 1920s villa, it’s one of those homes that seems to have come straight out of an interior design magazine. Brimming with bright, natural light, it packs marble floors in the bathrooms, a regal staircase, and a mix of modern and classic design furniture. A family home with a capital F, it invites you to spend time with your loved ones – whether that’s in the garden, the home gym, the table tennis room, or the eye-catching dining room. Charlottenlund isn’t quite central Copenhagen (it’s more suburban), but it’s well-connected to the city centre by way of the S-train.

The Art Director

Don’t let the graffiti on the front door scare you off, The Green Market is a little haven in young and trendy Nørrebro. Located on the fifth floor, it’s got a loft-like atmosphere with plenty of green plants, vintage furniture and fun artworks. We also love the exposed wooden beams that add a charming touch to this little home. Since it is a studio apartment, it’s especially great for young couples or travellers looking to be in the epicentre of all things cool. It could feel a little cramped – but for what it lacks in size, it makes up for with its charismatic atmosphere.

Welcome Hamper

With wooden floors, high ceilings and luminous windows, Union Jack is a typical Frederiksberg apartment. Located by Forum Station, you’re close to Sankt Jørgens Sø and some of the cosy cafés by the lakes. This three-bedroom home isn’t luxurious, but it comes with plenty of charm – we especially love the vintage pieces, nods to the host’s home country and the vibrant colour scheme. 

Union Jack

Located in the back building of a courtyard close to vibrant Nyhavn, this unique apartment channels old Copenhagen in a light-hearted way. We love this place – it's quirky, quiet, and crooked (it's in a typical timber-framed building with brick walls and low ceilings). Your host, Mikkel, is a music-lover, so there's an abundance of instruments, sound equipment and a huge record collection, as well as cool design classics by Hans J. Wegner – one of Denmark's most creative furniture designers. We also couldn't take our eyes off the lion foot bathtub, elegantly paired with a surfboard for a playful touch – though the tub is for decoration purposes only. Step out into Copenhagen's charming streets, and you'll find yourself just a few hundred metres from the colourful waterside bars and restaurants of Nyhavn. Stroll a few minutes further and you can browse the boutiques that line pedestrianised Strøget. Finally, head away from the centre, and the world-famous Little Mermaid statue is around twenty minutes' walk away. Alternatively, do as the locals do and cycle around the city to cut your journey times in half.

The word “wow” came up a few times when we visited this place… A former coal crane located in Nordhavnen (the old industrial harbour area), it’s an incredibly special place that offers an out-of-this-world experience. Set up for pampered living in exceptional surroundings, it consists of three levels of unique luxury. One with your living quarters – the bed is heavenly. Another with a huge meeting room and bathroom – the bathtubs have some of the best views we’ve ever come across. And two terraces – one for enjoying magnificent sunsets, the other tailor-made for sunrises. 

The Old Coal Crane

Niels is an artist, and some of his own works adorn the walls of his characterful home. We can’t get over the bold colour scheme, it really livens up the space in a playful way. While the bathroom is a little worn, it’s a lot bigger than what we’re used to seeing in Copenhagen. And best of all, the location is excellent. It’s right by the lakes, a neighbourhood brimming with coffee shops, restaurants, and picturesque walking and jogging paths.

The Graffiti Gallery

For design buffs, Candy Shop is like a treasure map – there are plenty of things hiding around every corner, waiting to be discovered. The townhouse dates back to 1735, so naturally, it’s brimming with history, which carefully blends with modern amenities and charming furniture. We especially love the pastels palette and the charismatic striped wallpaper that reminds us a little of the traditional Danish candy, bolsjer. Perfect for a family, this home places you right in the heart of Copenhagen – Strøget is nearby, and so is Kongens Have and Rosenborg Castle.

Candy Shop

Once the seedy underbelly of the city, Vesterbro is now famous for its cafes, bars, and boutiques. It’s hard to imagine a place more indicative of Danish culture, and similarly, it’s hard to imagine somewhere that fits as well with the Danish stereotypes of high design and hygge as Poetry’s Nature. The natural light, white walls, and wooden floors lend a simplicity to the environment, which is punctuated by framed posters advertising local exhibitions.

Diagonals might not be the cosiest of flats we have ever seen, but it has a few unique features that we really like. The sloped ceilings create a warm atmosphere, and the orange shag rugs are a lot of fun and add some spice to this minimalist home. And let’s not forget about the incredible location. You’re right in the heart of Copenhagen’s Latin Quarter, so you’ve got plenty of homely cafés around - and you’re close to Strøget too.

Let’s start by saying something obvious from the outset – this Copenhagen penthouse is one of the most impressive apartments we’ve ever seen! Louise's eye for design, detail and hosting is extraordinary – she can even arrange for a private chef if that’s something you’re in the mood for. The home's interior is pure Scandinavian chic, with plenty of natural materials, sculptural light fittings and elegant furniture throughout. Through to the bedrooms and the neutral decor and blackout curtains making switching off at the end of the day an effortless experience. And if you thought that was the end of it, wait until you see the huge rooftop terrace – at over 2,500 sqft, it has to be one of the largest in the city. Its sheer size combined with views of the water, old Copenhagen, and the many modern buildings in Islands Brygge ensure that we can’t think of anywhere we’d rather be. And while it's true you won't be staying right in the heart of the city, we'd suggest hiring a bike so you can do as Copenhageners do. Truly extraordinary and one-of-a-kind, this home needs to be experienced at least once in your life.

The Gantzel Studio

The Yellow Brick Road is truly the best of both worlds. Found by the lakes (one of our favourite spots to go for a walk), you’re within walking distance to Nørrebro’s arty, hipster scene, as well as Indre By, Copenhagen’s city centre. The building itself dates back to 1842, so expect lots of charming period features – we found the exposed brick wall particularly mesmerising. On top of all that, Jerrod is also a lovely host – excited to welcome you to his home, you can rest assured he’s thought of everything to make your stay perfect.

Three Daughters merges old-world Copenhagen with modern family life. It has high ceilings and unbelievable stucco (straight out of a fairytale castle), and yet it feels very twenty-first-century Copenhagen. The fact that it’s a family home is evident in every corner (we noticed quite a few pen scribbles on the walls, original artworks courtesy of the three children). With its green parks and wide boulevards, Frederiksberg is great for families. Frederiksberg Gardens are very close, and Copenhagen Zoo is just a twenty-minute walk away.

This serene apartment blends modern Danish design with pops of colour and beautifully curated art, creating a place where you will feel instantly at home. Located in leafy Frederiksberg, an affluent neighbourhood with a village-like feel, you are perfectly placed to explore the city’s many culinary, cultural and natural delights. Copenhagen is full of dedicated cycle lanes, so hop on a bike to explore areas like Nyhavn, the picture perfect canalside houses a twelve minute cycle away. 

Start the morning with a walk or a jog around The Lakes, just a five minute stroll from your door. For lunch, Frederiksberg is full of brilliant food markets, where you can try a range of delicacies from across the globe. 

For cosy nights in, the open kitchen is a joy to whip up meals in. You will love coming back to your light filled apartment and settling down on the sofa with a book. Or after a day of exploring, head up the rosy pink stairs, light a few candles and take a rejuvenating bath. Outside you will find a tranquil balcony where you can enjoy a drink on warmer nights.

For thrill-seeking kids and grown ups alike, Tivoli Gardens can be reached in five minutes by bicycle – the iconic theme park that inspired Walt Disney and Hans Christian Andersen.

Sauna / Steam Room

This cosy Finnish apartment would suit anyone looking for a true escape into nature. On the edge of the Hitis archipelago, there's much for sporty travellers to enjoy here, whether you want to discover the hiking trails or take a boat ride to the nearby islands. This recent build is full of contemporary Finnish style, from the EcoFurn furniture on the terrace to the cosy throws and rugs, and there's plenty of space to unwind in the living space after a day of exploring. You'll find all you need in the kitchen to prepare meals, while the dishwasher makes cleaning up a breeze. Venture down to the communal lakeside sauna to unwind, or just relax in the private sauna in your home. As the sun sets, settle down on the terrace with a cup of hot chocolate and your favourite album on the Bluetooth speaker – or, strike up a conversation with fellow adventurers at the communal barbecue area. 

Secluded Peninsula

Access to Gym / Spa

Nestled within the Stockholm skyline, with views over the city and harbour, this luxurious penthouse suite invites you to immerse yourself in Sweden’s bustling capital. 

Showcasing signature Scandi style with plenty of lavish details, this home perfectly balances understated glamour with homely touches. Panoramic, floor-to-ceiling windows frame the impressive city below, and bring plenty of natural light into the apartment. An open-plan living space allows for hosting dinner parties with family and friends, whilst the fully-equipped kitchen makes preparing food a breeze if you feel like flexing your culinary muscles. Of course, in the centre of Stockholm, cooking is optional, with an array of local eateries quite literally on your doorstep – your host can even make restaurant reservations for you.

When you’re not out and about exploring the Norrmalm neighbourhood, sit back and relax on your own private terrace, which offers uninterrupted views across the city. There’s no better way to start your day than stepping out of the French doors and onto the sun-drenched patio – views like these give the phrase “watching the world go by” a whole new meaning. 

If you’re visiting during colder months, spend your evenings relaxing in front of the fireplace with a glass of wine, after enjoying a soak in the free-standing bathtub. 

Sights of Stockholm

Escape to your own piece of tranquility at this charming lakeside haven. Tucked away amidst trees and meadows, this cosy fisherman's house offers a blissful retreat for nature lovers seeking serenity. With a main house and outbuilding, you'll have plenty of space to relax and unwind. Step inside the bright and inviting living area, featuring a Scandinavian wood stove and satellite TV. The well-equipped kitchen is ideal for preparing home-cooked meals, while the comfortable bedrooms provide restful nights. Outside, enjoy the beautiful lake views from the veranda or indulge in a BBQ on the terrace. Take advantage of the shared natural state property and cooling off at the bathing jetty. Fishing enthusiasts will find plenty of opportunities nearby. Whether you're seeking a peaceful escape or an outdoor adventure, this lakeside oasis is sure to rejuvenate your spirit.

Cozy Lakeside Haven

Located right on Islands Brygge, you're certainly getting your money's worth when it comes to the beautiful views on offer from this stunning home courtesy of large picture windows in every room. Modern to the core, this place oozes glamour in a streamlined way. The attention to detail is off the charts, with textured materials aplenty, plus elegant storage solutions and an inviting balcony looking out over the water. Speaking of which – trust the Danes to have a harbour so clean you can swim in it (the water quality is tested daily). The waterfront offers plenty of summer fun, with five pools, three diving towers, and a large lawn with plenty of space for sunbathing. It's no surprise then that it's one of the most popular places in the city for Copenhageners to come when the sun's out. Access to the rest of the city couldn't be easier – just cross over the pedestrianised Lille Langebro bridge, and you can be in the centre in approximately fifteen minutes, with plenty to see along the way.

Gold Standard

Located in a 2008 building designed by Vilhelm Lauritzen Architects, Colour Coordinate is one of a kind. It’s right by the harbour, so expect gorgeous views of the water at any time of the day. The hosts are really into organic living (all linen and toiletries are organic), as well as creating a space to brings you closer to nature. We can’t get enough of the bold colour scheme and the extraordinary plant collection, but our absolute favourite thing about this home is the easy access to Fisketorvet’s Harbour Bath where you can go for a quick dip every morning before breakfast.

Colour Coordinate

This stunning apartment is a real one-of-a-kind in the Danish capital. Not only is it in a wonderful location (the Little Mermaid and Amalienborg Palace are only ten minutes away), but it merges historic features with contemporary Danish design in the most elegant way possible. It's a rarity to find homes this large in Copenhagen – especially complete with modern bathrooms – so we were thrilled when this one came across our desk. The bedrooms are among the most stylish we're seen, with forest green feature walls, eye-catching artwork and headboards held by leather straps. While the Crittal-style glass partition walls of the second and third bedrooms are certainly a conversation starter. On long summer days, a couple of French doors open out onto Juliette balconies so you can let the fresh air and that city buzz inside. As a bonus, this three-bedroom home is located along the Crown Prince's preferred cycling route, so you might catch a glimpse of him as he whizzes past on his bike. So if you're set on exploring Copenhagen on foot, by bike, or on the water, this is the ideal choice for you.

The Design Show

A flat roomy enough for ten people right in the city centre is pretty much unheard of, so imagine our surprise when we found this gem. With five stylish bedrooms and an amply-sized living area meant for socialising, there's enough space here for a big group to spread out and get comfortable. The kitchen isn't massive – we'd only recommend it for cooking breakfast and other light meals – but we liked the vanity area outside the bathrooms, where you can prep hair and makeup without hogging the loo. There are other touches, too – USB plugs by all the beds, an Apple TV in the living space for at-home movie nights and no single-use plastic. This building has the highest eco-certification (A15) and it's run on renewable energy, so it's as good for the environment as it is stylish. Best of all is the location – Strøget is just around the corner, with restaurants, shops, cafes and bars all right on your doorstep. You're only two minutes away from Kongens Have and Rosenborg Castle as well, perfect for strolls in the sun. 

Bouquet of Flowers

If you end up staying in Cloud Underground, you’ll be getting some very fancy neighbours. Amalienborg Palace (the Danish queen’s home) is just down the road – and it’s actually also located along the Crown Prince’s preferred biking route, so don’t be scared if he whizzes past you. With its Scandinavian-meets-industrial vibe, it’s the kind of place you look forward to coming home to at the end of a long day of sightseeing. Oh, and did we forget to mention that it’s within walking distance to everyone’s favourite statue, The Little Mermaid?

Cloud Underground

A whirlwind of green hues, this snug home brings an instant smile to our faces. It's warm and comfortable, with a large dining table perfect for sharing family meals and a cosy sitting area where you can kick back and relax with a glass of wine and Netflix. A small collection of books and board games only add to the homey feel, as do the large windows which flood the lounge with natural light. One of the bedrooms is rather tiny and the bathroom isn't the biggest we've seen, but the brilliant location more than makes up for it. We love this area's historic charm and quiet streets, yet buzzing restaurants, cafes and shops are all a short stroll away. You're also within walking distance to many of Copenhagen's most beloved sights – Amalienborg Palace, Nyhavn, The Little Mermaid, Frederik's Church, you name it, chances are you can get to it easily. Best of all? The Danish queen lives just down the road, so if it's good enough for royalty, it's good enough for us.

Courtyard

This colourful home in the Danish capital is a great place to share with your loved ones. The quirky top-floor apartment includes a collection of books and board games instead of a TV – encouraging you to enjoy a cosy evening reminiscent of the good ol’ days. Situated in a residential neighbourhood, the apartment offers some peace and quiet, while a ten-minute metro ride takes you right into the bustling city centre. Here you’ll find a large variety of places worth visiting such as Rosenborg Castle, Tivoli Gardens or the picturesque Nyhavn, as well as plenty of bars and eateries. 

Under The Sky

With plenty of the minimalist style Scandinavia is famous for, this ground-floor apartment in Copenhagen opens up the city to you. Despite being the owners' main home, the space is uncluttered – you won't feel like you're intruding here. We love the charming kids' room, while the terrace is perfect for your morning coffee. You're close to a canal if you fancy a stroll, and the relaxed neighbourhood is brimming with cafes and shops. When you want to hit the centre, you'll find yourself well-connected.
