Many people come to the area to explore Nissum Fjord, a large body of water surrounded by dunes, meadows and woodland. Experience it walking the 43-mile-long (70 kilometer) pathway of Nissum Fjord Nature Park or on the water by windsurfer. Rent a bike and pedal along the 17-mile (27-kilometer) Fuglenes Fjord Bike Trail. Husby Klitplantage is a coastal area with opportunities for camping, fishing, horse riding and swimming.

Nissum Fjord, Storå Creek and Vibholm Ørredsø are other popular fishing spots. Bask in the peaceful confines of Mrs. Pedersens Garden or Nees Japanese Garden.

Include a trip to the fishing village of Thorsminde, where keen anglers cast lines from the piers of Thorsminde Harbor. Swim in the North Sea waves and build sandcastles at Thorsminde Strand, Bjerghuse Strand or Spidsbjerg Strand. Strandingsmuseum St. George is a museum in Thorsminde that tells the tumultuous seafaring history of Denmark’s western coast and its many shipwrecks.

Car enthusiasts should plan a visit to the VW and Retro Museum, which has an exhibition of vintage Volkswagens alongside automobile memorabilia. The area’s churches, such as the 12th-century Ulfborg Church and Thorsminde Church, are also notable points of interest.

"Das Haus bietet sehr viel Platz, auch im Außenbereich (große Terrasse mit vielen Sitzmöbeln), die Küche ist sehr gut ausgestattet. Kleinere Mängel, vermutlich aufgrund des Alters, z.B. die Duschabtrennung ist nicht mehr ganz dicht, der Türgriff der Eingangstüre ist lose."
