About This Item
Denmark No Year. This 18C thatched inn has a contrastingly modern interior. Cooking is founded on the classics but comes with a subtle modernity, and dishes are original, well-balanced and technically accomplished. Theres a bespoke chef's table, the wine list is a thing of beauty and service is professional and personable. Sumptuously stylish bedrooms complete the picture.Henne Kirkeby Kro was built in 1790. The nature painter Johannes Larsen often stayed there while painting birds at the nearby lake, Filsø. It was owned for three generations by the Beck Thomsen family, most recently by the chef Hans Beck Thomsen, who ran it from 1981 until 2007, when he sold it to the Danish multi-millionaire Flemming Skouboe.Skouboe closed the business until 2009 and renovated the inn to luxury standards with interiors in a modern, "quasi-minimalist" style including bed covers by Paul Smith, armchairs by Hans Wegner and photographs by Astrid Kruse Jensen, and later added a new guest building, Hunters' Lodge, increasing the number of guest rooms by seven to twelve. A lunch restaurant, conference space, and a helicopter landing pad have also been added. As of 2017 the inn is owned by the Skouboe family as part of the Fænø Estate. It is open eight months a year, from Easter to mid-December., Danish/English/German, YearNo Year, Illust. B/W0, Illust. Color312, ISBN 9788798759713, Code 7084.
