Oldfruen - Restaurant og Café

Located in Marielyst – Denmark’s southernmost and largest seaside destination – The Matron offers a unique setting for small gatherings, events, and personal service experiences. Just a short walk from a 14 km long, family-friendly sandy beach, this charming house is a peaceful escape surrounded by greenery and fresh air.

Created by Dan and Tinna Kobbernagel, The Matron is built with care and quality in mind. With a focus on a healthy indoor climate, and excellent acoustics, the house provides a calm and pleasant environment for all guests.

Tinna brings more than 15 years of experience as a house matron in both Denmark and the Caribbean, where she worked with household management, childcare, cooking, and service – even for the Danish royal family.

You’ll meet Tinna at The Matron, where warm hospitality and personal attention are at the heart of every visit. Whether you’re enjoying a barbecue on the terrace or simply relaxing in the garden-like setting, you’ll feel the charm of the countryside near the coast.
