Helenekilde Badehotel

Pack your bags with coastal-cool pieces for a stay at Helenekilde Badehotel, an effortlessly stylish beach escape in Tisvilde. Set on the sun-bleached Danish shoreline, this fishing village is a short trip from Copenhagen, but feels worlds away. Built as a private summer residence, and designed as a declaration of love, the house’s story as a hotel began in 1904. Today, it’s an old soul with a gently reimagined spirit, one that wraps you in hygge so that you never want to leave.

Days unfurl slowly at Helenekilde, as you wake in your seaside bedroom. Mid-century modern details meet heart-warming English eccentricity in every uniquely styled room and suite. Think New England in Europe – with windows that have rolling views of the Kattegat Sea and open to the soft salt-laced breeze. Some suites have expansive balconies, made for wave-watching. Feel the summer air on your skin on the terrace, or the sun deck at the cliff’s edge. Warm up in the sauna after a bracing sea swim. Or curl up with a book in the shade-dappled gardens. 

All paths lead to relaxation here, whether you’re pottering about the coast by bicycle, or following the hotel’s hand-drawn maps to find the most peaceful places in nearby Tisvilde Hegn forest. Evenings are ushered in with the ritual of Wine O’Clock, with complimentary wines from the Kølpin family’s signature collection between 4pm and 5pm. Choose your complimentary glass of wine – specially made in Mallorca – and enjoy with a game of pétanque and a side of sunset. Then, meander to an authentic Danish dining experience in Restaurant Kilden, to be sated by just-caught seafood and perfectly-executed classics.
