Skovreden – historic log cabin in Damsbo Forest

Deep inside Damsbo Forest and right by Helnæs Bay lies a truly special place: Skovreden, a 500 m² log cabin built from spruce, with a turf-covered roof and hunting trophies decorating the walls. The cabin was built in 1935 and designed by big-game hunter Ivar Sporon-Fiedler. During World War II, members of the Danish resistance movement used it as a hideout.

Hunting Cabin with room for 19 overnight guests

Today, Skovreden is available for weekend and holiday stays, special occasions, private parties, film productions, meetings, courses and corporate retreats. The lodge features 9 bedrooms, a large hunting lounge with a fireplace, 3 smaller sitting rooms, large and small dining rooms, a fully equipped kitchen, 4 bathrooms, 1 toilet and a spacious terrace overlooking the sea. It accommodates up to 19 overnight guests and up to 40 dining guests.  
The beach at Helnæs Bay is just a few minutes’ walk from the cabin. In the surrounding forest, guests can forage, sleep in shelters or explore the forest’s ancient “Eternity Trees”. Skovreden is located in South Funen, just 10 minutes from Faaborg and less than an hour from Odense.
