Summer vacation is over for most people, and everyday life is calling. However, the transition from relaxing vacation days to routine everyday life can feel a bit heavy. So how do you stay motivated when the prospect of the next summer vacation seems endless?
Don't worry - we've put together a range of tips on activities that can help you keep the holiday spirit alive and quell your post-holiday blues.
Nature is the best antidote to your blues
One of the best ways to extend the vacation feeling is by spending time in nature. Bernstorff Slotshave is the perfect place to take a relaxing walk and reconnect with nature.
Bring a picnic basket and find a cozy spot in the park where you can enjoy a quiet moment surrounded by nature - whether it's here in late summer or in the fall, when Slotshaven is in its most beautiful autumn splendor.
The old trees, beautiful beds and manicured paths combine to create a tranquil oasis where you can take a deep breath and let your thoughts calm down. After work or at the weekend, a stroll through Slotshaven can help you shake off the stresses of everyday life and give you the energy you need to face the week with a smile.

Plan a company party this fall
Autumn is the perfect time to gather colleagues for a company party in one of Bernstorff Castle's elegant banquet halls. A party in these historic surroundings can be exactly what you need to give your everyday life a festive boost - and not least restore the sense of community after a long summer apart.
Autumn is the perfect time for theme parties such as Oktoberfest or Halloween, but the setting can also be an elegant dinner or a cozy reception. Whatever the setting, our professional team can help customize an unforgettable evening that will lift spirits and create new, happy memories.

Something to look forward to - plan an extra day off
One of the best things about vacation is the anticipation of something special waiting just around the corner. And even if the summer marathon of days off is over, you can recreate that feeling by planning an extra day off - or perhaps a weekend stay at Bernstorff Castle.
How about treating yourself to an overnight stay in our charming hotel rooms? Or perhaps a cozy company brunch with friends or family in our beautiful surroundings? By giving yourself something to look forward to, you can prolong the feeling of a vacation while enjoying the luxurious surroundings of the castle.

An active life is a good life
Autumn always offers plenty of activities to keep your blues at bay - we can recommend some of the fall events at Bernstorff Castle, for example,
We can mention Dining Week in week 42, where you get a unique opportunity to visit the castle and experience what our fantastic kitchen can create from the best ingredients. And a little later in the year, there is of course the always cozy Mortens Eve at the castle, where we serve a Mortens Eve duck in the absolute best end.
In other words, there's plenty to look forward to even after the holidays are over. Post-holiday blues are perfectly normal, but there are many ways to counteract them. At Bernstorff Castle you can find peace, experiences and joy to help you stay in the holiday mood even when everyday life comes knocking. So why not stop by the castle and find your own way to prolong the joys of summer?
