Schellerup Gård
the farm and the nature around
The story of the farm
Schellerup Gård er beliggende lidt uden for Herning – 10 minutter fra midtbyen, MCH samt Jyske Bank Boxen. Gården er en gammel gård bygget tilbage i 1910. Dengang var der ikke andet end en hovedbygning og en lade samt 12 ha landbrugsjord. I 1960 blev der bygget en ekstra længe og landbrugsjorden blev ændret til skovarealer. I 2005 blev gården købt af de tidligere ejere Anja og Kent, som totalrenoverede gården fra ende til anden. Hovedbygningen fik en overetage og den tre-længede gård blev istandsat med stråtag, hovedhus til privaten samt 3 ferielejligheder. De brugte 3 år før gården stod færdig, og gården blev deres hjem i 16 år.
We took over the farm in autumn 2021 with the dream of making the farm a fantastic place for us, our children, our local community and not least for you, our guests! We have many plans but continue to run the farm in the same spirit and with respect for history. We still see Anja and Kent regularly, as the purchase contract contains a phrase that they must drink red wine on a monthly basis.

Saunaen





The sauna is a unique form of therapy that affects both body and mind. In addition to magical warmth, it also creates space for meditation, enjoyment and social gatherings.
On our small farm, we have tried to lift the classic sauna experience a bit by bringing nature close. Our sauna is equipped with a full panoramic view over the small lake, which is surrounded by magical undisturbed forrest in the background. An experience which is hard to described, and needs to be experienced.
It is both possible for our guests and visitors to rent the sauna for private events, or participate in our planned sessions. Either our special events or so-called "open sessions".
Note: It is not permitted to bring anything other than water into the sauna.
Wilderness bath




Ved siden af vores sauna har vi sat to lækkert vildmarksbade op. Med udsigt udover søen, er der rig mulighed for at trække stikket, læne sig tilbage og nyde nuet. Om det er med vennerne/veninderne eller med din eneste ene, det er op til dig.
I hvert vildmarksbad er der plads til 2 personer. Når man booket et vildmarksbad – så er det kun et af badene. Ønsker man at booke begge, så finder vi en løsning på det.
NB – Det er ikke tilladt at drikke eller spise i vildmarksbadet
The lake

The lake is our little oasis that attracts a rich wildlife and not least trees and plants. The lake is 3 meters deep and approx 60 x 40 meters large. So there is plenty of opportunity to take a swim.
The forrest

The forest forms the most beautiful setting for the farm and the small lake. Here you will find both old and new young forest, where trees such as beech, oak, birch and various conifers stand side by side and create a safe home for a lot of local wildlife.
All visiting guests are more than welcome to take a walk in the forest. At the edge of the forest pointing towards east, there is also the nicest little bench where you can take a rest and enjoy the view over the fields.

Places to visit
Herning City
Herning is located in Central Jutland and is the capital of Herning Municipality. The city is the fourth largest in Region Central Jutland and has just over 50,000 inhabitants.
Herning is known as a congress and fair city because of Messecenter Herning. The large multi-arena, Jyske Bank Boxen, which was built at MCH Messecenter Herning. The large arena which can facilitate 12-15,000 spectators was opened by Lady Gaga in October 2010, but had its baptism of fire with sold-out semi-round and final matches in connection to the European Women's Handball Championships in December 2010.
Herning is today a growing city, in contrast to more stagnant areas in central and western Jutland. This is mainly due to the fact that for many years the city council has had a conscious strategy to attract jobs and develop cultural life in the area in and around Herning. Herning is also known as an enterprising trading town with a large range of both chain stores and specialty stores.
