Strandvej 27 A - Ballum - 6261 - Bredebro

At the lovingly restored Old Ferry House on Strandvej 27 A in Ballum, history, charm, and Nordic tranquillity come together. Between 1890 and 1920, the building served as an important departure point for travellers crossing to Rømø by boat. Today, it combines its historic character with modern comfort, creating a unique setting for relaxing days by the Wadden Sea.

Carefully renovated in 2026 with respect for its original architecture, the former ferry house retains its authentic charm while offering stylish interiors and contemporary living. The spacious rooms create a warm and welcoming atmosphere throughout the year, making it ideal for holidays with family or friends.

Strandvej 27 A - Enjoy together, stay individually 

On 144 m², you will find a spacious and uniquely furnished ground-floor holiday apartment for up to 6 guests and 2 dogs. The bright, open rooms offer plenty of space to relax and enjoy your stay.

The apartment features a cosy living room with a masonry stove, three bedrooms with two double beds and two single beds, a fully equipped modern kitchen with a baking oven, and a stylish bathroom with a washing machine. Modern comforts include free fibre-optic internet, Apple TV, and Chromecast.

Nature, open landscapes and the Wadden Sea

The Old Ferry House is located beside the Wadden Sea National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Europe’s most remarkable coastal landscapes. Here, nature sets the pace of life, with changing light over the marshes, gentle tides, and abundant birdlife creating a sense of tranquillity.

Enjoy uninterrupted views across the Wadden Sea towards Sylt and Rømø from the garden or a deck chair. As the sun sets, the landscape is bathed in warm colours. Whether in the conservatory or outside, this is a place to unwind and reconnect.

Relaxation between islands and historic towns

The holiday apartment is a perfect base for walks and cycling through Southern Jutland’s unique nature. The wide paths along the Wadden Sea invite slow exploration of the landscape.

Thanks to its central location, Ballum provides easy access to the islands of Rømø, Sylt, and Mandø. Towns such as Tønder, Højer, and Ribe – Denmark’s oldest town – are ideal for day trips filled with history and Nordic charm. The German border is about 30 kilometres away.

Ballum – The quiet side of Southern Jutland

Ballum is a small, idyllic village in Southern Jutland’s marshland. Traditional Danish houses, wide meadows, and proximity to the Wadden Sea create a sense of peace and authenticity. Here, you can enjoy nature, watch birds, take long walks, or simply relax in the fresh North Sea air.

For those seeking relaxation, open landscapes, and the atmosphere of the Wadden Sea, the Old Ferry House offers a place where everyday life fades away and tranquillity begins.
