A farmhouse originally built around 1790 and carefully renovated, located at the edge of the forest just 200 metres from Lake Bredasjön.
This is a peaceful and spacious place to slow down, unwind, and enjoy nature. With generous indoor and outdoor areas, it is ideal for families or groups of friends who want to spend time together in a quiet, scenic setting.
The space
The forest surrounding the farm has been cared for by my family for more than 100 years. I focus on recreation and nature experiences rather than timber production, and my father did the same in his time. The result is a varied, calm, and beautiful forest landscape, perfect for walks, swimming, berry picking, and simply being in nature. I hope you will find it as enjoyable as I do.
This is a completely quiet and secluded part of the countryside, with no traffic and no neighbours nearby. At night, it is pitch dark and utterly silent. On cloud-free evenings, the sky opens up in a breathtaking display of thousands of stars, sharp and crystal clear.
In addition to Lake Bredasjön, where a simple rowing boat is at your disposal, there are also several other lakes within easy walking distance. You can swim either at the farm’s own small bay, or on the other side of the lake (about 1 km by foot, car, or boat), where there is a bathing jetty.
This place is well suited for couples, families, groups of friends, and anyone looking for a quiet retreat away from everyday stress — a place to disconnect, without giving up comfort. (There is also reliable WiFi, if you don’t want to disconnect completely.)

Other things to note
All outdoor photos in the listing are taken in the forest and on the farmland directly surrounding the house.
The price includes professional cleaning after check-out, so the house will be in perfect condition for the next guests.
We kindly ask guests to take out the trash and wash the dishes before leaving (it is fine to start the dishwasher when you check out).
There is also a separate cottage on the farm, rented out on Airbnb, sleeping up to 6 guests:

Both houses are fully equipped, and each has its own outdoor area with furniture, located at opposite ends of the farmyard. This means you will not be close to the guests in the cottage, and you can enjoy your stay in peace and privacy.
However, if you are looking for complete privacy and would like to have the entire farm to yourselves, you can book both houses here:
