Lemvig is a Limfjord market town of about 6,750 people with the North Sea roughly 10 km away, and holiday homes spread around it. It is a working town rather than a resort, so beach days mean getting in the car.
Lemvig lies between the Limfjord and Lemvig Lake, with hills to the east and west. The harbour faces the fjord and has a 2-metre concrete seawall to protect the town from westerly storms, and the town appears in royal letters from the 1230s. The homes are spread widely around the town and the surrounding coast, so check each one's position against the town and the sea. Most sleep around six, a few take larger groups, and most have a fireplace. Only a few have a sauna and few have a private pool. The wider municipality takes in Bovbjerg lighthouse, the fishing village of Thyborøn and a national park on the fjords along its southern border, so most outings involve a drive.

With Bøvling Fjord and Indfjorden, these waters on the municipality's southern border form part of a national park.
Billund is the practical airport for London flights, about an hour and a half by road. Public transport from Billund takes more than three and a half hours with a change at Holstebro, so a car is the sensible choice, especially as the homes are scattered.
Summer suits beach days on the North Sea, about 10 km from town. The harbour seawall exists to protect against westerly storms, so expect weather to arrive off the sea. Most homes have a fireplace, so autumn and winter stays are workable. Check opening times for museums and cafés outside summer, because this is a working town rather than a resort.
No, Lemvig sits on the Limfjord, with the North Sea about 10 km away. The harbour faces the fjord, so for a beach day you drive to the coast.
Yes, the Lemvig railway line runs through the town, linking Thyborøn in the north with Vemb in the south. From Billund Airport the train journey needs a change at Holstebro and takes close to four hours, so most visitors drive.
Not all of them. The homes are spread widely around the town and coast, so some are near the fjord and others nearer the sea. Check the map position before you book.
A fishing village on the northern tip of Harboøre Tange, at the western end of the Limfjord canal. The port opened as a fishing harbour in 1914, and the Lemvig railway line ends there.
Only a few have a sauna, and few have a private pool. Most have a fireplace, and the typical home sleeps around six, with a handful taking larger groups.
