Peaceful Days Between the Christmas Markets
Between the Christmas market weekends, the pace slows down. The town remains beautifully decorated, offering plenty of time to explore the cobbled streets, the harbour and the unique winter atmosphere of Ærø.
It's the perfect time for a relaxing winter escape with cosy walks and the special Christmas atmosphere that makes Ærøskøbing so charming at this time of year.
Breakfast is included every day during your stay. Café På Torvet is open on Fridays and Saturdays during the Christmas market weekends – please see our café page for current opening hours.
