Hydrangea happiness all around the terrace here.
One thing I learned today, that hydrangea comes from hydro/water and all that in Greek. Felt so obvious once you know it - but since they’re not usually called by their botanical name in German it just didn’t click.
Love it when a day has a real little nugget of new knowledge. 🤓🤓 (And happy to admit that;-)
Have a happy and calm evening.
Found a room with a view and some peace and quiet (admittedly while the kids are watching TV, but yes - that’s one of the best times on a holiday 😂👍).
Have a lovely Tuesday!
Looks like an all kinds of weather day -
But the early morning arrival with not so much on, even in high season, is definitely worth it.
Best place to be - by the sea! 🌊🫶☀️🕶️
Welcome to number 4.
And welcome to an account where sheds, gardens, red bricks, marshmallows and hammock play a big role.
Because in Sensby we do the outdoor work and all the garden and DIY projects - inside and out.
And once we’ve done that - the best way to conclude the day is with a sundowner in the hammock behind the shed, or in one of the deck chairs by the fire, roasting marshmallows.
😊👍☀️
Time to sit outside and enjoy the sunshine ☀️
Hope everyone in the North is having a wonderful start to their summer holidays.
Happy Sunday!
Good reminder why we’re hosting and sharing our house with other families and groups of friends.
Of course we’re super happy to get reviews like this one - but we’re equally happy if you tell us anything was missing or that sth didn’t match your expectations.
With constructive feedback we can keep improving and making sure that you love this place just as much as we do. 🫶🙏☀️
Monday in Sensby.
Not a bad start to the week and really enjoyed getting the house ready for our next guests from Denmark myself this time. ☀️🇩🇰
What our guests say...
We really like sharing our place with families, groups of friends or as a small team offsite.
And it’s always nice to feel a connection with our guests.
As a host I really value:
1. Good up front communication, so I know a little bit about the party coming to stay
2. Knowing about additional needs or questions in advance so I can prepare well
3. Getting honest feedback - anything that was missing, anything broken, any suggestions - that really helps me.
As a guest I value:
1. Quick responses from hosts
2. Flexibility if possible, eg slightly later checkout if no other guests booked
3. Houses that match my expectations, ie I get what I saw on the pictures
Anything you would add here?
Sundowner view from the sofa in Sensby.
Best time of the day - inside or out. 😊☀️
Good luck today to Germany 🇩🇪
& our northern Neighbors 🇩🇰 🙌
Welcome to the house.
This is what greets you upon arrival.
Have a wonderful time inside and out in the garden 🏡🪴🌳
Always nice to hear it from other guests and not just the hosts going on about how nice their place is 😂🙏
Hearing how people liked it is the bit that really makes hosting and sharing our house with other families and groups of friends worth it.
Reading the guest book or getting feedback via email or a booking portal is always the most interesting bit.
And the same goes for letting us know if you missed sth during your stay or have other constructive feedback for us to keep making the time you spend in our house the best it can be.
To all our past & future guests - we really appreciate hearing from you! 🙏🙌
Happy Wednesday!
Happy Monday from No. 4 ☀️🙌
Looks like a beautiful week ahead and we’re wishing you all a wonderful start into the last couple of weeks before the summer holidays.
Is it just me or do the last weeks with school children always feel like one party and event or sports activity is chasing the next? And add to that all the summer kids parties 🎉😂🍾🥵
— I’ll be so happy when the holidays arrive. ☀️😊
That time of day -
That time of the week -
That time of year -
Just enjoying the moment for a bit. ☀️❤️
Happy Friday evening!
And have a great start to your weekend.
Looking forward? 👀
Just a little bit 😊🤫
🍋 lemon vase love - new addition.
Welcome to the house, you’ll fit right on because you’re yellow and we always like a touch a yellow.
And you’re a bit quirky and you’re also serving a real purpose: fitting the 1-3 flowers the kid randomly bring home from walks or the garden. 🌷😎
Very difficult to pass the pots & decor section - and yesterday we just weren’t successful 😂🫶 - too many nice things.
And this is why - we have a pond 😂🐸❤️
It’s amazing how long frogs can keep kids busy, all the binoculars out, all edging ever closer, parents keep saying to stop and watch, kids keep ending in …. 🪄 tense moments of nature watching and frog mating here tonight.
And that was after the newts, the dragonflies, the healthy plant life, the various frogs and birds during the day.
So glad we made it (with the help of .walton & 🫶) What a great addition to the wildlife here.
Fresh from the garden - ❤️☝🏼
They’re just amazing right now and the best thing about peonies is that they just keep getting better and better with age, like people and wine. 😎
They are one of the best investment plants you can have in your garden, as they’ll keep producing more and more flowers over the years. And they’re great for cut flowers straight from the garden to the table.
What can I say - I’m in ❤️☺️
Evening sun & purple flowers - have I mentioned this 😂🍬🙋♀️
I might just be a little bit obsessed with this time of the year at the . Wherever you look it’s either yellow fields of rapeseed (though most have already been taken in) or lush green fields of wheat, barley etc and our garden has just exploded with growth over the last two weeks.
🥳💪👩🌾 I see a gardening weekend coming up -
Just gotta convince my other half 😂 - there might just be some DIY work that absolutely 💯 percent can’t wait 😜😆
Time for Al fresco dining and enjoying the late afternoon sun on the terrace looking straight into the garden. I give it another 2-3 weeks and the sun will be in exactly the right spot for dinner around 7pm.
I’ll be tracking that 😂🙌🌝
The garden is going through it’s 😂🥳
It’s just everywhere right now - love seeing the colour scheme change throughout the year.
And this one might just be one of my favourites - until the Japanese anemones in late summer. 🌸
Happy Friday lovely people! 🙌☀️
Evening sun is starting to set at exactly the right angle again, perfect for eating outside and sitting outside.
Happiness is the last couple of hours before sundown.
☀️❤️😎
Early summer evenings in Sensby and the light is starting to feel just right.
Happy feels like a long weekend Friday.
Still love this chair.
Colour, small size, rocking and all that.
- good design = good business.
Favourite time of year in Sensby?
Always May - because the fields are yellow wherever you look, and it’s a blue skies, greens and sunshine ☀️
And this year - we got very lucky indeed and the whole field behind our house and garden is covered in rapeseed, so you look outside into a sea of yellow.
I can tell you, it instantly lifts the mood 🫶💛🌟

Happy Easter 🐰🐣🥂
Loose an hour, find some chocolates - have a wonderful Sunday. 🫶
It’s that time of day - that time of week, it’s Friday!
Have a great start to your weekend, and I hope it’s time to wind down for you too.
Cheers and enjoy! ✨🥂🙌
Spring is in the air, out in the garden and coming inside. What a treat every year to see the garden wake up and spring bulbs and flowers appear / often in places where you don’t expect them 😊🧚♀️✨
And then add in a day of sunshine and chocolate brownies and life is good. ☀️🍪
Happy Sunday! What are your plans for today?

Bike trip around Thumby - Winnemark - Bienebek - Sieseby. Not a bad day out at all ☀️😊 #biketrip #schleihaus_sensby #schleswigholstein #urlaubimnorden #ostseeurlaub #urlaubmitkindern #sommerferien
And here’s the ‚after the paint job‘ video. Glad it’s all looking nice and fresh again. Now onto the next project 😂🤪💪 More to come here soon. And a sneak peek in the stories later… can’t wait for the results. #schleihaus_sensby #diyprojects #bedroominspiration #bedroomdecor #countrycottage #ostseeferienhaus
Walking through the morning garden Just getting better as the year passes and summer is truly on its way. Wet grass and bare feet - messy, but sooo nice. Just had to walk right out this morning. @schleihaus_sensby
Spring time in Sensby - We’re incredibly lucky this year that our neighbour planted rapeseed right behind our garden, so it’s starting to get nice and yellow now. ⭐️ 💛🌼 And we found three newts in the pond already - so happy we built this last year. 🐸⚡️ Enjoy your weekend! #schleihaus_sensby #springtime #springtimegarden #ostseeferien #schlei #ferienhaus #urlaubmitkindern #littletravelsociety #rausaufsland #holidayrental
Waking up to more snow ⛄️❄️ and you can imagine what the day will look like 😁 - it’s definitely time for Glühwein here and waffle making in between continuing the igloo build. Hope December will have more of this weather ahead. 🌨️🤍
Sooo loud the birds in the hedge Really quite the spectacle and no sign of them piping down 🤪😂🌿🐦⬛ #summerconcert #eveningsong #eveningsinsensby #schleihaus_sensby
Same time last year. Beautiful aerial shots one of our guests took last year. Video by Jan Buchtalek. Thank you once again! #schleihaus_sensby #ostseefjordschlei #schleiregion #schleiurlaub #schleimylove
Tuesday dreams of summer evenings. While the mode is set to packing, organizing, finishing work, writing birthday invites and general mayhem - I’m thinking back to this moment of calm on the weekend. Wishing I was back there! Now on to more packing 🙈😂🧳 #schleihaus_sensby #momentofcalm #happyplace❤️ #hammocklovers #gardenlove #countrygarden #ostseeurlaub #urlaubmitkindern #slowtravel #smallplaces
Just so happy with the result…. I thought it would be handy for guests to have a quick reference to the house in book form, including recommendations with what to do and where to go in the area (of course there’s much more, but here is a selection). 🙏⚡️🥳 #curatedplaces #wheretogo #schleiliebe #schleimylove #schleihaus_sensby
