Fjerritslev suits large groups who want a roomy holiday home with a fireplace and often a sauna in north-west Jutland. The town has about 3,400 people, a cinema and a brewery museum, so check each address for its distance to the beach.
Fjerritslev was the largest settlement of the old Fjerritslev Municipality, which ran between the Limfjord and the North Sea and is now part of Jammerbugt. It has about 3,400 residents, a cinema, a brewery museum and the headquarters of a welding-machine maker. The homes spread over roughly eight kilometres around it and are large: the typical one sleeps eight with four bedrooms, nearly all have a fireplace and close to half a sauna, and gardens are scarce. On the coast, Slettestrand has a wide sandy beach with a few pebbles behind low dunes, with cars banned from the sand. Jammerbugt means Bay of Woe, after the shipwrecks off its coast. Summer is the listed season at Slettestrand. The rest of the year the fireplaces do the work.
