When visiting Bornholm, it's important to remember that the island is relatively small. Even though its diverse landscapes may create an illusion of grandeur, the distances between key points are comparatively short. For instance, Gudhjem is only 24 km away, Allinge 20 km, Dueodde 30 km, Svaneke 30 km, and Hammershus 22 km. By car, you can swiftly traverse from the exceptional cliffs in North Bornholm to Denmark's fifth largest forest, Almindingen, and onwards to the exquisite Dueodde beach in the southern part of the island, which has earned a spot on Lonely Planet's list of the world's best beaches.

When we're on Bornholm, we use the summer house as our base. We go on short trips to the island's attractions, which are never more than 30 km away. We usually end the day at the "world's best restaurant" with the "world's best view" – our own terrace.
