A historic island farm turned modern lifestyle haven
Blåbær Gårdbutik sits in a traditional three-winged farmstead from around 1850 on the southern side of Ærøskøbing, just a short stroll from the town’s cobbled streets. The old buildings frame a sheltered courtyard, with low whitewashed walls, farm outbuildings and a sense that this has long been a working property rooted in Ærø’s agricultural past. Stepping through the entrance, the atmosphere shifts from rural yard to carefully curated lifestyle store. Original beams and uneven floors hint at the farm’s age, while soft lighting, textiles and neatly arranged shelves signal that this is now a space devoted to design, craft and slow living.Scandinavian homeware with an eye for detail
Inside, Blåbær Gårdbutik is a treasure trove of home and garden ideas. Rooms are organised by theme: baskets and storage solutions in one corner, ceramics and tableware in another, cushions and quilts stacked in soft colour palettes nearby. There is a distinctly Nordic aesthetic at play – natural materials, muted tones, and pieces chosen to be both beautiful and practical. Shelves of candles, lanterns and rugs invite you to imagine cosy island evenings, while kitchen textiles, wooden utensils and simple stoneware speak to everyday rituals. Seasonal displays, from festive ornaments to maritime-inspired décor, reflect the rhythms of the year on Ærø and make the shop feel fresh on each visit.Organic treats, wellness finds and thoughtful gifts
Beyond interiors, the farm shop leans into its name with shelves dedicated to organic and natural products. You may find spice blends, teas, sweets with vegetal ingredients and other delicacies that make easy souvenirs or picnic upgrades. In another section, soaps, oils and wellness items highlight gentle formulations and plant-based ingredients. The shop also carries toys and small everyday objects – keyrings, bags, brushes and useful household items – chosen with the same attention to quality. Many of the products come from Danish or Scandinavian makers, reinforcing a sense of place and supporting regional craftsmanship.Courtyard calm, children’s corner and friendly animals
Outside the shop rooms, the rural setting becomes part of the experience. The courtyard and surrounding garden areas offer space to pause, with benches and informal seating where you can lay down your purchases for a moment and enjoy the island air. In good weather, this is a pleasant spot to linger rather than rush back to town. Families often gravitate to the small animal enclosures, where gentle, pet-friendly animals give children a close-up farmyard encounter. The setting feels safe and contained, making it easy to relax while younger visitors explore, watch animals or play in the open space between the buildings.Seasonal flavours and year-round inspiration
Blåbær Gårdbutik stays open throughout the year, but its character changes with the seasons. In the warmer months, the experience extends outside with cold drinks, ice cream, coffee and slices of cake enjoyed in the courtyard. The combination of old farm architecture, sunshine and something sweet in hand captures the unhurried pace of Ærø’s summer. In the colder half of the year, the focus shifts indoors: candles, textiles and festive decorations create a particularly cosy atmosphere. Whether you are outfitting a holiday cottage, looking for a single keepsake from Ærø or simply sheltering from a windy day, the shop offers a warm, sensory-rich pause.A gentle stop on an Ærøskøbing wander
Because it lies just outside the most compact old-town streets, Blåbær Gårdbutik feels like a small excursion without demanding much time. Many visitors fold it into a broader exploration of Ærøskøbing, using the farm as a place to slow down, browse at their own pace and pick up gifts that reflect the island’s appreciation for craft, sustainability and simple pleasures. It is as much about mood as merchandise: the creak of wooden floors, the scent of soap and spices, the quiet hum of conversation and the sight of children meeting animals for the first time. Together, they make Blåbær Gårdbutik a gentle, memorable stop on the island.Iconic landmarks you can’t miss
