Welcome to this cute holiday home set right by the shores of lake Vänern, Sweden's largest lake. The holiday home is a 30 square foot guest house on the landlord's garden plot. It features a small bedroom, a living room, a bathroom, and a kitchen. In the bedroom you'll find a bunk bed and a cot. In the living room there's a stylish sofa bed that fits two, and a TV. The kitchen is well-planned and practical, and features the basic amenities but no oven. In the bathroom there's a WC, a washbasin, and a shower. The little terrace gives you a panoramic view of the lake. There's a big, public beach with a café only 600 metres from the cottage. The surrounding area offers lots to see and do. The beautiful channel Göta Kanal is a must-see when you are in this part of the country! The national park of Tiveden ( 40 kilometres away) is a must-see, as are the red water lilies of Fagertärn, and the castle Stjernsunds Slott. Hova arranges a medieval market, with jousting, one week a year, usually week 28,which you might be able to catch. Örebro is a good destination for a day trip. The city centre of Örebro was voted the most beautiful in Sweden in 2015. Don't miss the marvellous castle from the 1300's when you are there! Other fun activities in Örebro include a guided “ghost walk”. The largest waterpark in Sweden is situated in Gustavsvik, and is also worth a visit. Norrkvarn offers a system of mini channels, which it much appreciated by children! Welcome to a great holiday home set in beautiful surroundings! Good to know: It is not permitted to charge an electric car at the cabin. A boat is not included and cannot be rented on site.

Alla - Hamburg
The holiday home is located in a very quiet and beautiful area, just a few steps from the water. The surroundings are excellent for relaxing, fishing, and boat trips. The cleanliness could have been a bit better, but overall the house was well equipped. Unfortunately, the description of the boat was somewhat misleading. The house description stated that no boat was available, while the inclusive services listed a rowing boat and an engine that could be rented additionally. Since the boat was the most important reason for us to book this holiday home, we were initially disappointed. However, the landlady was very friendly and helpful. After we explained the situation, she provided us with a boat. Since we launched the boat ourselves and put it back on the trailer at the end, we were allowed to use the motor for free. We would especially like to thank the landlord for her willingness to help. When I had a dental emergency during our vacation, she immediately sent us the phone number and opening hours of the emergency dental clinic and later kept asking how I was doing and if we needed anything else. The house is, from our perspective, more suitable for two adults or for two adults with younger children. The room with the bunk bed is quite small, the beds are rather narrow, and the mattresses are quite thin. Anglers will also get their money's worth here. We caught nice bream, perch, roach, and rudd. Unfortunately, we had no luck this time with pike, zander, or salmon, but that is part of fishing. Overall, despite the small drawbacks, we had a very nice vacation. The quiet location, the proximity to the water, and especially the extraordinary friendliness and helpfulness of the landlady made our stay very pleasant. Recommendations: We recommend a trip to Sjötorp with the Göta Canal and a boat tour to the small islands in Vänern. We particularly enjoyed Torsö with beautiful spots for swimming, grilling, and picnicking. Anglers will also find it worthwhile. In addition, a walk through the forests is worthwhile – we have already found some chanterelles, even though it was still a bit too early for the big mushroom season. Those who love nature and tranquility will feel very comfortable here.

This accommodation is quite convenient for a family vacation, The kitchen is well-equipped for simple cooking, and the washing machine was a bonus, The location near the beach is also great for a quick dip in the water,

Degen
A sweet little place! The living room was cozy, and the television was a nice addition for our evenings. The shower was refreshing after a day of exploring the nearby Göta Canal. Would recommend for a quiet retreat,
