Kirsebærgården is a course and retreat farm on the Nakke peninsula in Odsherred, on the north coast of Zealand. Organisers hire it for day meetings, workshops, retreats and courses of up to 50 people, with or without an overnight stay. The farm has one 50 square metre course hall, simple renovated bedrooms for 14 guests and its own kitchen and dining area.
Seminars and company events
The farm rents its course facilities for day meetings, workshops, retreats and courses of different kinds. The course hall was built as an extension of the original stable building. It has floor heating from a geothermal system, good acoustics and a view over the landscape. The meeting equipment includes wi-fi, speakers, a flip chart, a screen and a projector, installed so that it does not disturb the calm of the place. The owners say they tailor courses and special events to the wishes of the organiser, so a team that needs a particular rhythm or a combined programme can discuss it with them directly.
Rooms and capacities
The course hall measures 50 square metres. It can be set with tables and chairs for 25 to 30 people or in cinema style for 50 people. On the first floor, a lounge with large windows in the old hayloft wing has chairs, poufs and small sofas that move easily, so it works for group work or for quiet time between sessions. The ground floor has a common room with a kitchen and a dining area. All rooms are shoe-free, and slippers are provided at the entrance.
Accommodation
The farm sleeps 14 people. The rooms are on the ground floor and the first floor, all with a view, newly renovated and simply furnished. Up to eight single rooms can be arranged. One room and one toilet on the ground floor are adapted for guests with reduced mobility. The ground floor has two bathrooms and two toilets, and the first floor has one toilet. When a group needs more beds, the owners help to find other accommodation nearby.
Catering
Meeting packages for a day include breakfast, coffee or tea, fruit, water, lunch and cake. A longer package adds afternoon coffee and dinner, and a 24-hour package adds the overnight stay. The farm has a page on the food served on site, and the kitchen and dining area are part of the common spaces. Hire of the hall without catering is also possible, by the hour or by the day.
History and setting
The buildings are an old farm, and the course hall sits next to the former stable. The surroundings are open nature. Small outdoor areas with benches are spread between the buildings, and walks lead around the farm and to the bird tower at Hov Vig. A hot tub and a sauna, each with room for six and a cold shower, are available as an extra. The neighbouring Ryttergaarden offers horse-assisted coaching and workshops to guests of the farm.
Getting there
The farm is at Slettermosevej 15 in Nakke, near Nykøbing Sjælland in Odsherred. The site has a directions page, which the organiser should read when planning transport for a group. Meetings, retreats and courses are arranged by telephone or by e-mail, and a booking request form is on the site.
