Strandhøjgård Shelter Site on Røsnæs

Strandhøjgård on Røsnæs — shelter and tent site on the north coast overlooking the Sejerø Bay

Strandhøjgård sits on the north coast of the Røsnæs peninsula, where the open agricultural landscape meets the blue horizon of the Sejerø Bay. Here a local farmer runs a shelter and tent site that gives guests the chance to stay overnight with sea views and fresh salt air — close to both nature and an authentic farming environment. It is one of those places on Røsnæs where you can truly feel the peninsula's special blend of coast, culture and wide-open space.

The north coast of Røsnæs

The north coast of Røsnæs is markedly different from the south side. Here the landscape faces the Sejerø Bay with soft salt meadows, shallow water and sweeping views towards the islands of Sejerø and Nekselø. The light shifts constantly with weather and season, and on clear days you can see far across the Kattegat. The area is quiet and remote — there are no holiday homes or tourist facilities here, just fields, stones and sea. It is precisely this undisturbed character that makes Strandhøjgård such a special place to stay.

Sleeping between field and sea

Strandhøjgård offers overnight stays in a shelter and the option to pitch your tent on the farm's grounds. The site is privately run and a fee is charged for overnight stays — contact the owner directly to arrange a visit and get current information. It is a form of accommodation that combines outdoor life with close contact to a working farm, and children can experience animals and fieldwork at close quarters. The atmosphere is relaxed and down-to-earth, and you are welcome as a guest in an active agricultural setting.

Exploring Røsnæs on foot and by bike

From Strandhøjgård you can walk or cycle along Røsnæsvej and explore the peninsula's many natural areas. To the west lie the Røsnæs lighthouse and the dramatic coastal cliffs that rise above the Great Belt with views to Funen, Samsø and the Great Belt Bridge. The Røsnæs Nature Room and Røsnæs Nature School are within cycling distance and present the peninsula's geology and natural history. The whole of Røsnæs is criss-crossed by hiking trails, and the terrain varies from flat fields to steep coastal slopes, making the area ideal for day hikes.
