Lovely cottage by the lake

This is a fantastic place in the Stockholm archipelago. The cottage is located in a village of summerhouses only ca 100 m from a beautiful lake. The lake water is very clean and wonderful for swimming and there is a little beach suitable for small children. A small row- and sailing boat (8 feet) is available to use.

You have access to the full house with bathroom, bedroom, loft and a living room with an open kitchen solution and a fireplace. All equipment is free to use.

With a large sunny garden and lake area you will get the ultimate summer feeling. There is a newly built terrace, perfect for grilling and to relax during the long Swedish summer evenings. If you need anything or have any questions the hosts are nearby.

Stockholm is a wonderful place during the summer, and with an easy bus ride you will be in the city in only one hour, if an afternoon in town is wanted

Lovely and peaceful, with super nice host.
Small cute cottage with everything you need. Close to bathing and rowbost on beautiful little lake. Lovely Swedish forest with flowers all around.

Traumhafte Lage - aber schon sehr viel Patina
Ein kleines Haus auf einem wunderbaren Grundstück. Ein herzlicher Empfang durch die direkt neben dem Haus (10m) wohnenden Gastgebern. Funktionale Inneneinrichtung, die in die Jahre gekommen ist. Bei Bett und Couch ist der Begriff „Patina“ nicht mehr anzuwenden. Stark durchgesessen / durchgelegen. Der Fernsehtechnik war nicht in Gang zu bringen, der DVD Player nicht vorhanden. Trotz traumhafter Lage und wunderschönen Zugängen zu einem See, haben wir uns entschieden, nach einer Nacht abzureisen.

Sonnige Tage mit super Badeplatz
Schönes helles Häuschen, tolle grosse Terrasse zum draussen sitzen, am Nachmittag mit natürlichem Schatten. Zwei Häfen in der Nähe für Ausflüge in die Schären, gute Anbindung an Stockholm, gute Tipps vom immer hilfsbereiten Vermieter. Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen.

Schönes Häuschen am See
Das Häuschen liegt fast direkt am See in einem grossen Garten und neben dem Haus der Besitzer, welche sehr nett und bemüht sind. Die Einrichtung ist einfach aber zweckmässig. Erholung pur!

Ruhiges Ferienhaus in unmittelbarer Nähe eines Sees
Alles da ausser W-Lan, aber braucht es das unbedingt. Gute Anbindung zu Fährstationen auch mit ÖV. Schöner kleiner Badestrand an einer Meeresbucht mit Velo zu erreichen oder mit ein paar Autominuten. Die Insel bietet nicht das gleiche Inselflair wie eine der kleineren Schäreninseln, aber dafür ist man bei schlechtem Wetter flexibel. Gastgeber waren sehr freundlich und sehr hilfsbereit mit vielen Tipps. Das Ferienhaus ist sehr nah am Haus der Gastgeber. Ich hatte Glück mit dem Wetter, rundum schöne Ferien.

Außerordentlich gute Lage an einem ruhigen Badesee
Das Häuschen ist sauber und von der Größe ausreichend für zwei Personen. Die Ausstattung ist ebenfalls gut. Die Lage ist atemberaubend schön und der Badesee ist ruhig. Wir waren meist die einzigen im Wasser. Der See ist sehr sauber und er war sehr erfrischend ohne wirklich kalt zu sein. Der Vermieter ist sehr nett und kümmert sich regelmäßig um einen und gibt gute Tipps. Das Ehepaar wohnt direkt nebenan und das muss man schon mögen. Ein kleines Manko ist, dass wenn man mit geöffneten Fenster schlafen möchte, dass man den Schlafraum nicht ausreichend abdunkeln kann. Es ist ok, aber wer Lichtempfindlich ist, sollte eine Schlafmaske mitnehmen. Wir waren sehr angetan und kommen gerne wieder.

Ein schwedisches Paradies
Ein wunderschön gelegenes, sehr ruhiges Objekt mit direktem Zugang zum See, der ein absolut sauberes Wasser hat. Es ist auch ein Ruderboot vorhanden, das in hervorragendem Zustand ist. Das kleine Ferienhaus bietet alles, was man braucht - auch ein Grill steht zur Verfügung. Die Gastgeber wohnen im Haus nebenan und sind sehr liebenswerte und hilfsbereite Nachbarn, die einen stets mit Rat und Tat unterstützen. Wer es gerne ruhig mag, ist hier bestens aufgehoben - wir kommen gerne wieder!

Fantastic cottage in Stockholm archipelago
We were a Swedish couple in our early 30s who stayed 9 nights in the cottage around midsommar. The cottage is beautiful, and so luxurious for the price. The kitchen is more well equipped than my kitchen at home! Cosy fireplace and TV sofas. Great outdoor porch, grill and outdoor table/chairs, we both danced and played board games on that porch :) The bedroom downstairs with double bed had great curtains to make the room dark, something which is really important for me. The loft is great if you have older children, at least 2 can sleep there. There are a ton of family board games, puzzles, and outdoor games like kubb that you can borrow, so we brought a lot of it unneccesarily :) The nearby beach and lake are wonderful and the water was 25 degrees already around June 20. There were not too many mosquitoes, not even in the evenings. Although we did swim elsewhere in Värmdo, none of those beaches were close to beating our home beach/lake. You can borrow a boat, walk around the lake, participate in the local midsommar celebration. The owners Jan and Monika are unbeliavbly friendly and good hosts. In other words, the vacation here can be absolute paradise even if you never leave 200m from the cottage. But if you want to make excursions, Djurö C, Djurönäset, Motorverkstaden, Vita Grindarna, Glassvillan etc are just short bike rides away. There's public transport all over the island. Stavnäs is relatively nearby as well so we did excursions to Runmarö to watch some stand-up, and to Sandhamn, which I can highly recommend! You can easily go on daily excursions if you want. In conclusion, there was absolutely nothing disappointing during our vacation here and I would give my warmest recommendations for this place! We would love to come back next year, and this time relax more and stay more in the fantastic cottage :)

Avkopplande vistelse
Jag och mina 2 barn hyrde stugan 1 vecka och är supernöjda. Så lugnt och fridfullt nära bad i en jättefin sjö. Många dagar hade vi badet helt för oss själva. Värdarna var omtänksamma och supertrevliga. Vi kommer gärna igen till denna lilla sommaridyll. // Lena
