Team building options include a guided tour of the costume collection, which the venue describes as the largest in Scandinavia, walks, garden games and a tennis court.
Weddings and receptions
Weddings are tailored to each couple, with two wedding planners on the team. The reception room is the Havesalen, with its original wooden roof beams, and the Filmstudiet, a high-ceilinged studio that can be dressed in any theme. A ceremony can be held in the historic park with an altar and white chairs, followed by refreshments on the terrace or in the garden. The bridal suite overlooks the park, the lake and the fountain. The venue also hosts parties for up to 240 guests and has a nightclub, BG natklub. Fireworks, sparklers and confetti cannons need written approval.

History and setting
The Swedish nobleman Peder Thott built Boltinggaard around 1579. The current main building dates from 1854, after a fire destroyed the older buildings. The Rosenstand family bought the estate in 1972 and has lived there since 2005, after major renovations supported in part by Realdania. The property covers 665 hectares, about 250 of them forest managed by the estate. Besides events, it runs a Christmas market, a costume collection and a film studio.
Getting there
The address is Kokskovvej 28, 5750 Ringe, on Funen. The site gives no travel times, so ask the team about parking, which is large, and about transfers.
