It is time to get started, if you want to have a course up and running next year or the year after. The earlier you are out, the greater range you have to choose from - among the best and most popular big holiday homes in Denmark.

Many of the big houses in Denmark gives you the ability to offer both weekend and week-long courses with room for 20 people and up to 40 people with accommodation in a double room. Many with pool and sauna and all the houses have satellite / cable TV, washing machine, dishwasher, whirlpool, internet and fireplace or stove.

There are many benefits attached to do a course in a big rented house. It is much more personal and private. Your trainees will not only learn; they also get a holiday together with new people somewhere in Denmark and you can usually make sure, they are placed in a beautiful location.


Plan your course

Naturally your priorities depend on what kind of training you offer, how many trainees you expect to get, and where you choose to place your course. In addition to the content of your course, and a description of the same, the following points are, however, something that all course providers of weekend and week-long courses must pay attention to:
  1. Choice of course venue
  2. Research activities and facilities in the area
  3. Planning catering
  4. Budget and course price

Choice of course venue

If you are thinking of arranging an intensive course in African drum dance,  you might as an example be looking for a course venue with a large hall, which is located far enough away from the nearest neighbor to avoid any complaints or conflicts about noise.

If you are planning a slimming course, you probably need a house with as many opportunities for exercise, outside and inside, as possible, and also a kitchen with space for teaching and training to cook diet food.

You must, in other words clarify exactly what you need for your particular course. Once you have done that, you are ready to go on a house hunt for the perfect course venue.

Research activities & facilities in the area

Maybe you need to build in some excursions, a restaurant visit or some activities out of the house. Search the Internet, once you have chosen your big holiday home and know your area. Copy related link while you form a picture of what the area has to offer. It is also something that will come in handy when you write your final course description to potential participants.

Planning catering

If you are organizing a course with accommodation, you also have to consider various options for catering.

If it is suitable for your course to divide the participants into cooking teams, then it is not only cheaper than other solutions, it is also a good way for the participants to get to know one another.

Of course you can also check whether there is a possibility of catering services offered with the house or in the local area.

Notes down the price of respectively cooking yourself (catering 1) and catering service (catering 2).

Budget and course price

When you make your budget, start by deciding how much you want to earn on your  course and for putting your project together. Let's say you want to earn a minimum of 2,000 EUR for your planning and execution of a course. Let's also assume that you book a house for 30 people, but only get 20 participants.

House for 30 people with 15 bedrooms: 2,600 EUR
Linens + towels:                                               300 EUR
Deposit                                                               700 EUR
Gas, water & electricity according to
consumption?

If you book a house for 30 people, but only get 20 participants, it means that you can have a bedroom for yourself (you will need it) and that you can offer some double rooms as single room at an additional cost.
Gas, water and electricity according to consumption is an unknown quantity, until the course is over, but when you pay 5,000 in deposit, which you get back - if nothing is damaged, it should level itself out.

Your salary:        2,000 EUR
House in total:   3,600 EUR
Catering 1:          2,000 EUR
Catering 2:         4,000 EUR

Course Price with catering 1: 7,600 EUR  /  per student: 400 EUR
Course Price with catering 2: 9,600 EUR /  per student:  500 EUR

Whether you choose catering 1 or 2, you can now choose to round the course fee for each participant up to the amount that you're comfortable with. You do however need to have a look at prices at similar courses - hence the competition.


If you raise the course price with catering 1 to 495 EUR and course price with catering 2 to 600 EUR, then your total outcome will be:

495 x 20 =   9,900 - 7,600 =   2,300 EUR
600 x 20 = 12,000 - 9,600 =  2,400 EUR

And should you get another 5 sign-ups, you could make (4,775 EUR) or ( 5,400 EUR).

Not bad for a little planning and a week of intensive work!
