Beautiful Hotels on Langeland – The Lovely Vacation Island!
Are you looking for accommodation for your summer holiday on Langeland? One of the most delightful places to spend your holiday is on the cozy island of Langeland. The island got its name due to its elongated shape, and a little rhyme about the island goes like this:
Langeland is long and lean,
Rising, falling, valleys seen.
7 miles stretch, 1 mile wide,
Ristinge’s tail is set aside.
The text is usually in the Langeland dialect, and translated into standard Danish, the rhyme tells about the island’s size: 52 km long and up to 11 km wide. The little ‘tail’ at Ristinge is not counted. As the rhyme also describes, the island rises and falls in hills and valleys, and a special holiday atmosphere descends when you gaze out over the beautifully rolling landscape. Here, there’s a peace that you find in few other places in the country.

Tranekær Slotskro
North of Rudkøbing is the village Tranekær. As you drive through the city, you will probably notice that many of the houses are alike. Count Frederik Ahlefeldt Laurvig, called ‘The General’, was landowner at Tranekær Castle from 1791-1832. During that period, he transformed the small village according to the model of the German principalities and built both factories, a theater and also Gæstgivergården, which today houses Tranekær Slotskro. The inn has 12 rooms and 1 suite, and here you live the Langeland village life, within walking distance of Tranekær Castle and TICKON Park.
