TRAVELLING IN DENMARK
The country of Denmark is
a little remote for a quick
hop across the Channel,but
thanks to the port of
Esberg, it is directly
accessible from the UK
through the ports of Harwich
and Newcastle by ferry.
Flights also go daily from
Heathrow to Copenhagen and
there are good links to
most provincial airports.
Denmark contains many islands
and is a major target for
motoring holiday tourists who
use the well developed ferry
system to hop from island
to island.
Although actual travel to
Denmark can be reasonable,
the cost of living is much
higher than in the UK,although
not as high as some other
Scandinavian countries.There
are many supermarkets etc and
self-catering holidays are a
good option. Farm house,
chalet and Danish 'Pool'
houses are all variations on the
self-catering theme.
Short tours to Copenhagen as a
city break are popular especially
by air. For the family a trip
to the famous Legoland is good
value (there may soon be a Lego-
land opening in the UK!).
Denmark is a friendly,clean and
welcoming country, many Danes
speak English and have a strong
affection for the UK.
