In summer, we imagined, it would be even better: the perfect place to sea-swim, wander forest trails, take the ferry to Als or head into S\u00f8nderborg to stroll around its pretty harbour. Plus, Nordborg Resort had one more trick up its sleeve.<\/p>\n
Though from the road it resembles a rather down-at-heel attraction, Universe Science Park (a 15-minute walk from the resort) turned out to be one of the big hits of our trip. Embroidered with flowers and set around a lake, it had plenty to keep us occupied for a day, including a wind tunnel in which you could don protective glasses and battle your way through a simulated storm or a hurricane, as well as a VR race track complete with life-size cars and a burning house that you use your wits to escape.<\/p>\n
There\u2019s a high ropes course at Universe Science Park too, complete with daredevil zip-wire sections that are almost rollercoaster-esque. Nordborg Resort guests can get a pass for the duration of their stay for around \u00a315 per person \u2013 good value for what\u2019s on offer.<\/p>\n
Sadly, our time in the faux-hurricane marked the end of our trip. And though we agreed that, ideally, we would have ridden our golf buggy into the sunset, we had to settle for a Hyundai i30 and a view of blustery grassland and a weak Danish sun reflected in the rear-view mirrors.<\/p>\n
