When describing really tender meat, you’ll come across Danes saying “it can be chewed with the eyebrows” 🤨How that works in practice is anyone’s guess but a steak from would be one to attempt it with. That meat is tender! And tasty! And everything you could wish for in a steak! I’m salivating just thinking back on that beautiful meal 🤤

We went a couple of weeks ago to celebrate our wedding anniversary and it did not disappoint. We tried different delicious desserts too and was hosted by the friendliest staff. I’m looking forward to going back again and again and again

Transported back in time at the iconic hotel and restaurant

The decor is a work of art, blending many styles - most notably Art Deco and Oriental inspiration with intricate details to admire. We couldn't get enough of the stunning lamps and the natural light that made everything shine.

And don't even get us started on the view! Hammersø with the majestic cliffs in the background was a sight to behold. Perfect spot for a sunset dinner, complemented by the delicious and tasty food. Truly an unforgettable experience 🤩

The beauty of going for a stroll around town is that you have the chance of stumbling upon something truly special.

On Havnegade in Allinge you’ll find a truly lovely little gallery by hidden at the back of a magical garden 🌺showcasing her artwork.

Favourite time of year!

When the sun is baking like it did this weekend and you’re looking for a bit of an adventure in the shade, a hike around Ekkodalen is a brilliant option.

Do remember to wear good shoes and mosquito repellent as the mosquitoes in the forests are vicious 🦟

Finding an open restaurant on a Monday in the new year proved more of a challenge than first expected.

After calling maybe 20 different places, we finally discovered that Restaurant GSH in Rønne was open and had a place to go for a final dinner out with the in laws before they head out tomorrow.

The menu had just a few choices but man they were tasty.

The pear dessert alone id go back for 🤤

Al had a bite of the steak and we will definitely be back to have that another time too.

A fresh start to the year with a sunset walk from Sandvig to Hammerodde Lighthouse.

The rain and wind had let up for the day allowing us to enjoy the beautiful late afternoon light and colours.

After a week with flu, it was just what the doctor ordered 💪

Happy Noodle everyone! (Apparently that’s what Nytår sounds like to foreign ears 🤷🏻‍♀️🙈)

May you have a very healthy year ahead ✨

On a cold winters day there’s still plenty to do on Bornholm. We recently visited which has an array of different art from famous local artists and artists who studied/worked/lived/were inspired by this wonderful island.

We are by no means art connoisseurs but found a lot of inspiration from the thought provoking pieces.

It’s well worth a visit!

What a treat! Lunch and cake buffets in Østermarie.

It’s such a quirky place and I really wish I’d taken more pics but was too busy admiring the interior and enjoying the food.

Oh well good excuse to go again 🤷🏻‍♀️

Tejn has more than just a harbour vibe. At the south end of the harbour you can cross a lawn and get to this little rocky path and step right into the ocean 🌊

Even on a cloudy and windy day it’s still a beautiful coast 😍

17/09/2022

Treated ourselves to an explosion of flavours tonight at celebrating 12 years of not killing each other.. I mean anniversary 😂

The food is absolutely divine, the service so warm and friendly and you cannot beat that view! Due to a food intolerance, the chef even put together a really lovely dessert to work around it. Cannot recommend the restaurant highly enough and this will not be the last time we visit 😍

Lovely walk near Vang granite quarry this evening. Although windy tonight it was still well worth braving the weather to enjoy the view. The beach is rich in bird life and you can find the impressive entrance up to the quarry. We are yet to visit that but it’s on the list 👀

Abso-freaking-lutely delicious! 🎉 There’s no other way to describe the grilled cheeses from . You cannot leave Bornholm without having had a 🧀 sandwich and a walk around the beautiful town of Gudhjem.

Hands down the best potato open sandwich (kartoffelmad) we’ve ever had 🙌 serves two options for lunch but the kartoffelmad is literally heaven on a plate. 🤤 just thinking about it! Oh and the pie is delicious too along with their ice coffee. Fully understand why they have so many regulars.

At the north part of Bornholm you’ll find cliffs, forests and also this lovely beach in Sandvig.

It’s located in the bay of Osand and is surrounded by small cliffs and Sandvig town. Truly a charming beach!
