We’re all very excited that we can start our adventure in a beach house just 100m from the Baltic Sea.

This is a typical, idyllic, Danish summerhouse, set amongst the trees in a secluded stretch of coastline a few miles outside the city of Aarhus, which is in Jutland.

Jutland is the bit of Denmark bolted onto mainland Europe.

Next stop south is Germany.

The beach has white sand and there’s a marina close by (not a Morris Marina), along with a little forest that seems like the perfect place to run or have picnics.

Of course, I’m writing this in July, when the sun is still shining.

But I have the feeling that this little place would be a cosy haven whatever the weather.

It’s technically illegal to stay in a summerhouse in the winter (which the Danes say starts on October 1st).

We’re trying to work around this.

In the meantime, this little shed and its accompanying out-house can take five.

So, consider this your Autumnal invitation.
