Can’t decide whether to spend your holiday shopping or outdoors? Why not enjoy the best of both worlds? Kokkedal is perfectly placed for fast access to Copenhagen to the south and Helsingør and the countryside of Northern Zealand to the north.
Kokkedal itself is an idyllic town with just under 10,000inhabitants. It is located close to the Helsingør motorway, just 12 miles away from Helsingør and 19 miles from Copenhagen, making a big city break a real possibility.
One sight you really shouldn’t miss in Kokkedal is Kokkedal Slot, a castle which dates from 1866 and is built in the Rosenborg style. This elegant building’s backdrop is a stunningly beautiful landscape with water, beaches and rolling countryside. It is the ideal base from which to explore more of the district’s handsome castles and manor houses. Load the family into the car and head out into the Danish countryside to visit the castles of Kronborg, Frederiksborg and Fredensborg.
These are all interesting buildings in their own right presenting the ideal combination of pretty architecture, scenery and their own fascinating histories. Kronborg also features an annual Hamlet exhibition, well worth a visit if you are there at the right time of year. And along the northern coast of Zealand, you’ll find a string of sleepy coastal villages, many of which have excellent places to eat and sample local delicacies.
If there are young children in your party, they’ll love Børnenes Eventyrfabrik. This indoor playground offers hours of fun to kids as they play on the bouncy castles, climbing walls, suspended bridges and slides along with a whole host of other activities.
Take in the great Danish attractions and the beautiful scenery in and around Kokkedal, and return to the town for a relaxing evening ready for the next day’s experience. Plan your perfect holiday in Kokkedal with plenty of things to do, and fun and excitement for visitors of all ages.
