Once Upon a Castle

You're forgiven for feeling a touch smug with yourself as you peer out the window of this sleek apartment and clap your eyes on the city's beloved Round Tower just moments away. Location-wise, this Copenhagen bolthole is hard to beat.

Perfect for travellers looking to see the sights, the fairytale-esque 17th Century Rosenborg Castle and formal gardens are just around the corner (a three-minute stroll), and a smidge further, the iconic and instagrammable Nyhavn harbour (ten minutes on foot).

When it's time to refuel, do like the locals and nip across the bridge to Christianshavn Island (a fifteen-minute stroll) for a picnic along the river banks. Or make a beeline to the gourmet foodie mecca of Torvehallerne (a mere six-minute walk) – you could easily spend an hour or more exploring its twin halls.

Back at home, this apartment building may have old bones (it dates right back to 1734), but inside it's bringing all the modern, Scandi vibes you're chasing. Gleaming from top-to-toe in white, with polished hardwood flooring and a generous dose of natural daylight (thanks to the bank of large windows), it's a fresh and uplifting place to come home to whatever the season.
