I am staying in Copenhagen with work at the Park Inn Copenhagen Airport. Can anyone recommend something B&O to do for a day or so.....
I'm guessing Struer would be too far to visit.
Thanks,

If you hire a car ... Struer is probably too far, but as discussed elsewhere there is the vintage street at Aarhus that has a B&O shop from the Sixties !
Still a bit of a drive though.
Google says ... 188 km, 3 hours 11 mins (includes a ferry) ... by train it is 3hours and some 15 to 35 minutes
FYI for Struer Google says ... 357 km, 4 hours 9 mins (no ferry) ... by train/bus it varies between 4.5 to 6.75 hours !
The B&O shop inside Copenhagen was not any big deal but I did not go inside (closed on Sunday & the Public Holiday)
We explored these -- links lead to detailed wikipedia articles.
Sometimes referred to as "the City of Spires", Copenhagen is known for its horizontal skyline, only broken by spires at churches and castles. Most characteristic is the baroque spire of Church of Our Saviour with its spiralling and narrowing external stairs that visitors can climb to the very top of the spire.
A district in Copenhagen with a different take on modern architecture is that of Christiania whose many creative and idiosyncratic buildings are exponents of an "architecture without architects".

If I remember well there is in the city center close to Tivoli a small but nice design museum with some B&O stuff.
Paustian is a very nice place as well.
Copenhagen is quite a small city and you don't really need to stay a long time there to enjoy most of the city's best.
Malmö is very close and is worth a visit with a small B&O shop and some sights like the famous 'turning Torso'.
the tivoli gardens are open this week and the next for their special halloween season.
The design museum is worth a visit and is indeed just across the road from Tivoli. It is compulsory to wear a black roll neck sweater and trendy glasses if you go in though.
The main museum is massive and very interesting and is free entry (unlike the design museum) Well worth a visit!
Beautiful city, one of the nicest I'd say with my limited knowledge!
Heading there end of November for 2 nights, work trip!
