The location:

Villa Kullaberg is a 1,000 square meter mansion close to the sea (Øresund) in Denmark. It was build in 1920, but has the charm and atmosphere of the exclusive mansions build several hundred years before. Professional conference facilities, combined with a beautiful view of Øresund, and the homey, cozy living rooms, "conversation kitchen" and much more make it a perfect spot for small, intimate conferences on humanistic, spiritual and holistic-medical subjects.
