The village of Hornbæk.

Hornbæk is a quaint village with access to one of the best beaches around. Lots of small stores, cafes and restaurants. You also find Det Fedtede Hjørne (The Greasy Corner) featuring various types of street food - including a bar - all served outdoors (open seasonally). There is a playground by the harbor, next to the fish monger. Hornbæk can get quite busy during the summer high season. Park for free in the lot at the center of town.

Kids & Playgrounds.

There is one small playground by the harbour in Gilleleje. Across the street you can buy nets and fish for crabs which our kids love. Gilleleje also has the most charming toy store named Trolde & Eventyr. Hornbæk also has a playground by the harbour. The village of Liseleje has Legepladsen Tyren which is a imaginative playground in the woods by the beach. It’s about a 40 min drive from the house though. Esrum Monastery features a small wooden playground with a zip line.
