Center Parcs Nordborg Resort in Denmark - What We Know So Far!

Center Parcs is opening its first Danish resort in August 2025 - Nordborg Resort

There's a new Center Parcs resort coming to Europe in August 2025, called Center Parcs Nordborg Resort in Denmark. 

This is a cause of great excitement for me, as I've been banging on for years about the money you can save by visiting Center Parcs Europe rather than Center Parcs UK (see this comparison of Center Parcs UK v Europe or the summary of the best European resorts).

Nordborg Resort is the first Center Parcs in Denmark. The current European resorts are all in France, Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands.

Here's what we know so far about Center Parcs Nordborg Resort.

When will Center Parcs Nordborg Resort open?

Center Parcs Nordbord is due to open in August 2025. They have just opened up the bookings form this week, so keen beans will book for the opening. It was due to open in Spring 2025 but that has been pushed back a few months.

I'm a bit more of a cautious sort who will avoid the first few weeks but you may be a little more of a thrillseeker.

Accommodation at Center Parcs Nordborg Resort will include three grades of 'cottage'.

How do you reach Center Parcs Nordborg Resort from the UK?

Center Parcs Nordborg Resort is certainly not the easiest European resort to reach. You probably figured that out from the fact that it's in Denmark...

It will take you about 11 hours to drive from Calais to Nordborg Resort. That compares to about 3 hours 30 minutes from highly rated Center Parcs Vossemeren and Center Parcs Erperheide in Belgium. Calais can be reached in 35 minutes via the Eurotunnel/Le Shuttle, which is a giant train that carries your car onboard.

There isn't a ferry from the UK to Denmark so you would need to get a ferry to the Netherlands and then drive. That works out as a pretty sluggish journey. For example, if you live in the north of England or Scotland you could get an overnight ferry from Newcastle to Amsterdam that would take about 15 hours. You'd then have another 7 or 8 hours driving (urgh). I'd expect to be in Australia after that amount of travelling.

And what about flying? You can fly direct from London to Billund Airport in Denmark in about 90 minutes. It's then a drive of about two hours to Center Parcs Nordborg Resort.

In summary, flying is your probably your best bet, but you would then need to add on the cost of car hire and other airport faff.

Center Parcs Nordborg Resort is in a coastal location, which is relatively unusual for Center Parcs

How much will it cost to visit Center Parcs Nordborg Resort in Denmark?

We've noticed that Center Parcs Europe often charges quite a lot for a holiday at one of its newest holiday parks. That was certainly the case with Center Parcs Terhills Resort in Belgium when it opened a couple of years ago.

That seems to be the case with Center Parcs Nordborg Resort. We found that prices for a week in August 2025 started at £2031. Here are the same dates at the Center Parcs resorts in Belgium:

1. ​Center Parks Les Ardennes - £1317
2. ​Center Parks Erperheide - £1445
3. Center Parks Vossemeren - £1579
4. ​Center Parks Park de Haan - £1868
5. Center Parcs Nordborg Resort - £2031
6. ​Center Parcs Terhills Resort - £2110​

What facilities will be at Center Parcs Nordborg Resort in Denmark?

A lot of people visit Center Parcs for its outstanding swimming pools, which are known as Subtropical Paradise in the UK or Aqua Mundo in Europe.

According to Center Parcs, the new Nordborg Resort in Denmark will have 'several different water slides, the raging Wild River, a rippling wave pool, a fun water playground, a lovely children's pool and... (an) outdoor infinity pool'.

That sounds pretty similar to other waterparks at Center Parcs. However, there is some variation in size at Center Parcs' pools. So how does it compare on size?

The Aqua Mundo at Center Parcs Nordborg Resort is 7200m2. That's a completely meaningless figure to me - but we can compare it to other resorts. The Aqua Mundo at Center Parcs Park Allgäu is 6600m2, so we know it is on a similar scale. It's worth mentioning that reviews of Center Parcs Park Allgäu are very mixed (66% overall, or about 3.5/5), but reviews specifically about the pool are very good.

In other words, we are expecting the swimming pool at Center Parcs Nordborg Resort to be the usual high standard from Center Parcs.

At the moment, we know that Center Parcs Nordborg Resort will also have indoor and outdoor playgrounds, beach volleyball, archery, laser shooting, boat hire, minigolf, a farm, an indoor playground and bike hire. We are expecting other activities to be added.

One of its unusual features is a pier where you 'can take a stroll or sit down and enjoy the unique view of the Lillebælt'.

How big is Center Parcs Nordborg Resort?

Center Parcs Nordborg Resort is a mid-sized Center Parcs Europe resort by my reckoning.

Unlike Center Parcs UK, there is a lot of inconsistency at Center Parcs Europe on scale. Center Parcs Nordborg Resort will have 440 cottages when it opens, with plans to add another 180 over the next six years. That would take it to about 620 cottages.

And how does that compare to other recently-opened Center Parcs?

Center Parcs Park Allgäu in Germany has about 1000 cottages, whilst ​Center Parcs Terhills Resort in Belgium has about 250 cottages.

There will be 440 cottages at Center Parcs Nordborg Resort, with more planned for the future

What about reviews? Should I visit Center Parcs Nordborg in Denmark?

It's still early days so there aren't reviews for Center Parcs Nordborg Resort in Denmark.

Well, that's not quite true.

​A few people have written reviews on Google reviews to say how excited they are. I'm particularly intrigued by the person who only gave it four stars, despite it not being open.

I don't think we can read a lot into reviews until the autumn.

Booking for the first year is a bit of a gamble, but everything will certainly be looking shiny and new.

Personally, I will be waiting a while before we consider visiting. Some of the newer Center Parcs in Europe have terrific reviews, but others are lagging behind. See our guide to the best Center Parcs in Europe to see what I mean.

Is Center Parcs Nordborg near to Legoland in Denmark?

You may be considering a double-bill holiday that includes a visit to Legoland in Denmark as well as Center Parcs Nordborg Resort.

That's very easy to do if you are flying, but less convenient if you are driving. 

If you are flying, I would catch a plane to Billund, which is - rather conveniently - right next door to Legoland in Denmark. You then drive about two hours to Center Parcs Nordborg Resort.

If you are driving from Calais, it is less simple as Legoland Denmark is about two hours north of Center Parcs Nordborg Resort. You won't go past it if you are driving from Calais, so you'll need to add on another couple of hours to your already-long journey.
