Copenhagen Looking for a B&B in the Hellerod area
Posted: Sun March 2, 2008 03:21 AM UTC
Hi everyone, my husband and I are arriving in Copenhagen at 7am on Wed, May 28th. We are thinking that we would rent a car and drive north to see the countryside and some of the castles. We also thought it would be nice to stay in a B&B...perhaps a cottage, farm or castle.
We then anticipate heading back down to Copenhagen the next day and spending the balance of Thurs/Fri in Copenhagen. (Our ship departs late afternoon on Friday.)
Can anyone make some suggestions of where to stay and what to see with the little time that we have? We are huge photographers and love castles!
As a side note, does anyone know how warm it will be?

Thanks for any help or suggestions!

there is a small castle near hillerød where you can stay overnight.
it's close to the sea too.
here is a link to the place:

OK, get your car and head for Humlebæk on the coast and then relax visiting the
Louisiana Museum of Contemporary Art, a world class indoor/outdoor gem. Plan on
spending the rest of your morning and have lunch there, watching Sweden just across
the Strait.
Head a little further north to Helsingør and plan on spending the afternoon at Kronborg Castle.
Then a little south to Fredensborg where you can stay in a historic Inn
"Den Store Kro".
There are no castles where you can overnight in that area. B&B's are tricky as to location. You could be lucky and hit a gem. It's a game to find it and should only be played when you have a reference you trust. I know lots of gems elsewhere but would not recommend any in that area before I have seen it.

Next morning visit nearby Hillerød and Fredriksborg Castle before heading back to
Copenhagen!

Definitely rent a gps to help you find your way around. Especially if you're only going for a few days, the last thing you want to is spend half your trip getting lost while driving. I traveled around through Copenhagen last summer and that little gps was a lifesaver! Try http://crx.lowergear.com/ or any other travel rental site. Hope I could help!
