Let me take you on a private guided tour of our rich birdlife garden lake, my mother in laws faboulous kitchen garden, the horse stables, farmbuildings etc. Kick off your shoes and stroll barefooted on our lawn (kept spotless by our 14 year old son Oscar). Feel welcome to play games or just sit back and relax. Inside the manor and I will show you the old salons and rooms where everything is a fun mix of a private modern home and 100% protected original decor untouched.
Traditional Butter Cookie Baking
Skjoldemose Manor is know for its wonderful tasty and crunchy butter cookies made only with the best and 100% natural ingredients. Follow me down to our kitchens under the manor and let's get dirty! I will be showing you how to make a whole platefull of deliciuos butter cookies. Have as many cookie jars as you like to bring back home to friends and family.
What if the weather is cold? Don't worry we will warm you up
A crackling bonfire is 100% danish "hygge".
Danish Pastry baking course
Ask Desiree to book you in for a baking course in danish pastry instead of the butter cookies. Its a little bit more work, but it is worth it.
Meal included
This meal is as danish as it gets. A lush serving of traditional danish Smørrebrød. A kind of open sandwiches with all the best is probably the best way to explain it. For the kiddies we have a special style that they will love.

Danish "Smørrebrød" included in your 4 hour visit to the manor house
Smørrebrød, which is basically an open-faced sandwich, is a beloved part of Danish cuisine. In fact, it's our national dish! The sandwich consists of a base of rugbrød (rye bread), a main component (usually meat or fish), and garnishes to create the perfect balanced bite!
