Gammel hushovmesterbolig omkranset af natur

In the middle of some of the most unspoiled nature in Denmark lies this idyllic, thatched cottage. The house is called Hushovmesterboligen as it is just a stone's throw from the beautiful Engestofte Estate and used to house the employees of the estate. The charming details from that time are beautifully preserved in the house. The house is located approximately 250 meters from the estate's private park, from which there is access to the beautiful Maribo Søndersø. From here you can use the estate's private jetty and go swimming and canoeing in the summer



The cottage is decorated with a love for history, but also for comfort and functionality. Light colors, wooden furniture and personal details create a charming and calm atmosphere that fits beautifully with the house's surroundings, and from one of the bedrooms there is direct access to the outdoors.



The two floors offer four bedrooms and a large and cozy living room that makes a great gathering place for family or friends and offers a cozy wood-burning stove to warm up by in the winter. The dining room seats eight people, and the country-style kitchen has everything you need for a nice break from everyday life.



The caretaker's cottage is located in the middle of the Maribo Lakes Nature Park in a cluster of three other idyllic half-timbered cottages that formed a royal estate back in 1457. Here you can enjoy the view of the lake area of Søndersø, which is one of the most beautiful in its undisturbed state, and experience the fascination of being in a place where there are no traces of buildings or other human activity. If you're lucky, you might spot rare orchids and butterflies on a walk through the forest or see the amazing sea eagles that breed here.



Please note that the house is only rented out on a weekly basis during the high season and that the stairs up to the first floor are steep.
