Set within its own large gardens (2,000sq m) at the edge of the forest and surrounded by fields, the cottage is situated on the outer fringes of a sleepy village, half way between Kalmar and Karlskrona, in the south-east of Sweden. Several shops, including a bakery, an off-license, two large supermarkets and a traditional craft shop, are within easy reach (approx. 2.5km).
Close to the sea and sandy beaches it also offers an ideal base for both cycling and hiking holidays. A nearby pony farm offers children the opportunity to participate in horseriding activities.
The area is known for its traditional arts and crafts – Swedish crystal (Orrefors, Kosta Boda) and wood work (Hemslöjd) in particular. Other tourist attractions include Astrid Lindgren’s world (Pippi Longstocking) as well as Öland Paradise Island.
