Villas in Farsø

About Farsø

Farsø is a town of around 3,300 people in Vesthimmerland, with an eleventh-century Romanesque church, more than 50 specialist shops on its main street and market square, and a town hall centre that is the only shopping centre in western Himmerland. The author Johannes V. Jensen, who won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1944, was born here. HimmerLand, a resort at Farsø, has three golf courses and Sjørup lake for swimming. The homes are scattered over roughly 14 km rather than set around the town, so expect to drive for shopping and meals out. Evenings are quiet. Most homes have a fireplace, few have a pool, and a fair share sleep eight or more.
