The story

Villa Vest stands at the end of the street in Lønstrup, an old fishing village on the North Sea, past the craft workshops and fishermen's houses; it runs a classic seaside hotel alongside the restaurant.2 The dining room looks straight out to sea, and the kitchen lets food and view share the evening.3
