About this property

A cozy cottage in the countryside.

A cozy cottage in the countryside. Here you can really relax - and to Stockholm it is only 45 minutes by car or train. Lake Mälaren with its beautiful undisturbed beaches is only 900 meters away. There is a rowing boat on the shore, which is included in the rent. Fishing in the entire lake Mälaren is allowed without a fishing license.
The house has a nice bedroom and a small sleeping loft for the children, also a galley kitchen and a washing machine. In front of the house is a very large terrace. In the living room there is a comfortable sofa bed with dining table and TV. Near the house is in the forest is a jogging track with trim-dich equipment. In the evening you can go to the wood-heated sauna. In Bålsta, a few kilometers away, there are supermarkets and restaurants.
There are many significant sights nearby. For example, you can visit the Lasse Åbergs Museum a few kilometers away, and it is about 10 km to Skokloster Castle, one of the most beautiful baroque castles in Europe. Sweden's oldest city, the small cozy Sigtuna with its old cute houses, is also only 25 minutes away. Other destinations are the university city of Uppsala with the cathedral and of course Stockholm with the Wasa ship, the Old Town, Drottninggatan, Gamla Stand, the royal castles and the archipelago.

Warm and cozy
It was perfect, cooktop worked out great, laundry and dry hangar worked as well. Wood burning Sauna kept the cottage warm when a storm knocked the electricity out and owners were very helpful with candles and bucket of water for toilett. Plenty of heaters to keep the below 32f outside. Dont expect TV to work well, however wifi is available and if you got tablets etc you can sign into your own netflix which worked for us. Bring your own conversion jack, there were couple toilett rolls and dishes but all else you will need spices, coffee. Small fridge but very suitable. Woke up to the rooster every morning which I loved.
