Right on the bank of Peblinge Lake, this apartment's location is hard to fault. Being this close to water is as idyllic as it sounds – we loved starting our day with a stroll along The Lakes. If you're looking to explore Copenhagen's scenic streets yet still want to be close to all the action in the centre, this is the spot to be – The Round Tower, Rosenborg Castle and the Strøget are less than twenty minutes on foot, while gastronomic delights and cafes await around every corner. We adored the old building, and although the interior is more modern, it's got all the Danish atmosphere you would expect. Everything is decorated in a neutral colour scheme with some vintage French farmhouse touches. The breezy kitchen is well-stocked for cooking, the bedrooms are as comfortable as they are stylish and the bathroom is large and glossy. After a wander around the city, rest weary legs on the squishy sofa and relax with a glass of wine, admiring the views from the two French windows over the lake.

About Ved Søerne
Three man-made lakes make up the border between Copenhagen’s city centre and the more residential boroughs like Østerbro, Frederiksberg and Nørrebro surrounding it. Although the area by the lakes is not technically a neighbourhood by official standards as it covers an area spilling into several boroughs as well as Copenhagen’s Indre By district, it’s a popular spot to live regardless of what side you live on. Especially loved by joggers,...
