Description
The fully equipped Björk holiday home is a classic Swedish wooden house from the 1930s. With approx. 110 sqm, it offers space for 5 to 6 people and is situated in a quiet village location on a lawned plot of approx. 1000 sqm. Shopping facilities and a children's playground are nearby, and Hesjön, a beautiful bathing lake, can be reached in 3 minutes by car.
On the ground floor there is a kitchen with a 3-plate cooker, dishwasher, microwave etc., a small study/reading room with plenty of literature for young and old, and a living and dining room with a fireplace and tiled cooker. Upstairs is a large hallway, a bedroom with double bed, a second bedroom/children's room with bunk bed (also suitable for adults!) and a single bed, as well as the bathroom with washing machine and separate toilet and tub/shower. The covered veranda is great for coffee and barbecues even in bad weather, and an upstairs balcony is great for drying laundry and sunbathing. Björk is a strictly non-smoking house. The house is bright and cosily furnished, the floors are made of wood and the beautiful fireplace spreads warmth and comfort not only on cool days.
In the living area you will find a curious record collection with record player, a TV (HDMI connections) with German SAT-TV and DVD player, a Nintendo Classic Mini-SNES as well as a HiFi system with CD player and connection possibility for USB sticks and MP3 players. WLAN is available throughout the house with a weekly free volume of 0.5 to 1GB, more volume can be purchased at cost price.
Björk also has a lot to offer for children: For the little ones there is an additional cot and a safe high chair from Ikea, the older ones will love the stable bunk bed. Toys, books, board games and even some DVDs will keep you entertained even on rainy days. On nice days, you can romp to your heart's content in the garden, on the nearby playground or at the swimming lake.
In the shed you will find garden furniture, games and many more things to make it cosy and entertaining outside.

Location and surroundings of object
There are several beautiful bathing and fishing lakes in the immediate vicinity of the house. The river Emån with good fishing prospects for pike and perch flows directly through Målilla and invites not only to fishing but also to canoe trips. A robust rubber dinghy is available in the house and may be used by the guests. The surrounding forests are a 15-minute walk away and offer opportunities for mushroom and berry picking as well as cycling and hiking. Four bikes (two of which are children's bikes) are available to guests free of charge. With a bit of luck, you might get to see a moose or two during your excursions. If that doesn't work out, you can admire the majestic animals in the moose park only 5 km away. Björk is located in Målilla, a beautiful village in the middle of the historic province of Småland. Vimmerby can be reached by car in just under half an hour. The spirit of Astrid Lindgren can still be felt around every corner in this charming little town. You can experience her famous characters such as Pipi Longstocking, Michel from Lönnerberga and Ronja the Robber's Daughter at first hand in the amusement park "Astrid Lindgren's World". The original film locations of "Michel from Lönneberga" and "We Children from Bullerbü" are not far from Vimmerby and can be visited all year round.
The archipelago coast around Västervik - one of the most beautiful corners of the Baltic Sea - can be reached by car in about 45 minutes. An hour's drive southeast is the old royal seat of Kalmar with its famous castle and the island of Öland - beautiful destinations for day trips.

Super house in Sweden
The Björk house is truly a fantastic holiday home. It is lovingly furnished and nothing is missing! For 2 people or with 2 children, this accommodation has everything you need.
In the surrounding area, there is a lot related to Astrid Lindgren. The Astrid Lindgren World, her birthplace, and the original Kathult farm can be easily reached by car. Especially Astrid Lindgren World is highly recommended for families with children.
Of course, you can also go hiking, visit moose, or swim in one of the many lakes.
We enjoyed being in Malilla and the Leerhoff family are truly good hosts! We would love to come back!

Very nice, clean house, very well equipped. Many possibilities for excursions and a beautiful lake nearby. We felt very comfortable in the house, the children 6 + 4 years old had a lot of fun. We are very satisfied and refreshed. The host is very friendly and responds very quickly to emails. Everything TOP!

Beautiful holiday
We had a great two weeks. Very nice landlords. Very cosy house with many possibilities to spend time even in bad weather. Our favourite place was the veranda. Nice garden where the children can run around. We can only recommend it.

Arrive and feel good
Beautiful old holiday home with super nice landlords. Lots of information material and plenty of toys for the children. Playground and supermarket around the corner. Lots of great excursions nearby. House, garden, bikes, boat...everything available. The house was clean and we felt very comfortable. Not completely secluded and perfect for us as a family with 2 children (5&7years).

Ein tolles Ferienhaus für die ganze Familie
Wir haben im Frühsommer zwei wunderschöne Wochen im Ferienhaus "Björk" verbracht und uns dort vom ersten Moment an sehr wohl gefühlt.
Das Haus lässt in seiner Ausstattung nichts vermissen, ist gemütlich eingerichtet und bietet auch für Familien mit Kindern viel Platz zum Spielen und Entspannen. Toll ist auch der große Garten! Das Haus ist ruhig, in einer kleinen Seitenstraße im Ort gelegen und ein idealer Ausgangspunkt für viele schöne Ausflugziele in Smaland. Zugleich ist man zu Fuß oder mit dem Rad auch mit kleineren Kindern in kurzer Zeit am nächstgelegenen Badesee oder in den Wäldern rund um Malilla.
Der Kontakt mit den Vermietern war herzlich und zuvorkommend, und zahlreiche Tipps und Informationen haben dazu beigetragen, dass wir alle eine so erlebnisreiche und schöne Zeit in und um "Björk" hatten! Ganz herzlichen Dank dafür!!

ein schöner Spätsommerurlaub!
Wenn man zuviel positives berichtet, wird es ja meistens unglaubwürdig. Allerdings habe ich nicht eine einzige Kleinigkeit zu meckern. Wir haben zwei Wochen in Manila in dem Ferienhaus Björk verbracht und blicken auf eine wunderschöne Zeit zurück. Das Haus ist mit allem ausgestattet was das Herz begehrt. Die Gegend ist ruhig, aber mit dem Auto oder auch zufuß ist man selbst in kürzester Zeit am See, in den Wäldern oder auch in der nächsten Großstadt.
Die Vermieter waren sehr hilfsbereit und freundlich und haben uns mit vielen Tips versorgt, die unseren Urlaub verschönert haben. Vielen Dank dafür! Wir kommen gerne wieder

Ein Haus zum Wohlfühlen, guter Standort für Ausflüge
Wir mieten das Haus schon seit einigen Jahren für unseren Schweden-Urlaub, weil wir uns dort sehr wohl fühlen. Es ist gemütlich eingerichtet und hat einfach Charme. Der Besitzerwechsel vor ein oder zwei Jahren hat einige erfreuliche Neuerungen gebracht wie zB. eine Spülmaschine und einen kompletten Austausch des Kücheninventars. Es sind viele Kinder- und Spielsachen angeschafft worden, so dass es gut für Familien mit Kindern geeignet ist. Leider vermieten die neuen Besitzer nicht mehr im Winter, was wir sehr bedauern.
Målilla ist ein guter Ausgangspunkt für viele Ausflugsziele, zu empfehlen ist auch der Elchpark vor Ort. Wir freuen uns schon auf den nächsten Urlaub in Björk!
