The space
The cottage is located on the second row from the lake with a substantial plot of land for play, games and sun and also a private jetty by the lake with space for two boats and a couple of deckchairs and bathing ladder. It is also possible to bring and launch your own boat with a trailer and have it moored at the jetty for fishing and longer boat trips. You can see the position of the jetty in relation to the cabin in the last picture, approx. 150 m to walk.

If you continue past the jetty, there is a boules court and its own small islet with a communal bathing jetty and barbecue area in the evening sun.

The main building has a brand new spacious and fully equipped with induction cooker, dishwasher, convection oven, microwave and fridge/freezer. Plenty of crockery and kitchen accessories for comfortable cooking for at least 6 people. Usual spices, washing-up liquid and the like are available as we also use the cabin ourselves. But feel free to top up if something runs out!

The bathroom with shower is spacious and there is a hairdryer and electrical outlet. Washing machine and tunble dryer is in an adjacent space along with all cleaning equipment.

The living room is large and has a fireplace to burn in during cool evenings and a 65" Smart-TV with Swedish terrestrial free channels and apps such as Netflix, Youtube, Rakuten etc and Airplay for own streaming. . WIFI with a good 4G connection is available. A good Bluetooth speaker is also available.

Outside the living room, there is a cozy glazed conservatory, also with a fireplace, which enhances the feeling.

On the yard there is also a small cabin with a double bed (180 cm) if you are more than 4 people or want slightly separated sleeping areas. Here there is also a desk with space for a computer if you want to be able to sit and work a little separately.
