Set in a renovated home that dates back to 1880 and opens up to a beautiful garden, Lykke (meaning happiness in Danish) is all we want from a Copenhagen home. Bright and luminous, it sets the scene for a wonderful holiday with the family. The immediate neighbourhood has a distinct character (it’s on the quiet side), but it’s filled with beautiful buildings and swanky villas. We love the delicate combination of colours, Danish design icons (Arne Jacobsen, Verner Panton), and the eye-catching posters from the host’s own company. Home truths: *To get to the master bedroom, you have to walk through the study *Frederiksberg is great for families, not so great if you’re looking to be close to all of the hustle and bustle *The master bedroom is on the small side *This home is split across two levels – be prepared for some up and down *This is a lived-in home, expect to share the space with some of the hosts’ belongings like toys, toiletries and clothes *Both bedroom two and three are set up and designed for children *Tall people be aware – the shower in the bathroom is only 190 cm tall *There's a hamster in one of the children's bedrooms – allergies may be a problem
