Saturday morning, and the cherry tree outside is dropping its last white blossoms onto the patio table. You've got coffee on, the kitchen window is cracked open, and the only thing on the agenda is deciding whether to cycle down toward the Öresund coast or spend the afternoon in the hammock. This is Björkgången 22 — a compact, well-kept cottage in Kölnans Fritidsby, one of Malmö's most quietly coveted leisure village districts, and a property that earns its price tag through sheer livability rather than size. Forty square meters sounds modest until you're inside. The main room is flooded with light from several windows, and a door opens straight onto the garden so that the line between inside and outside essentially disappears on warm days. Summers in southern Sweden last longer than most visitors expect — July evenings here don't go dark until past ten, and that extra space between the living room and the patio effectively doubles what you're working with. The kitchen sits just off the main room, a garden-framed window turning even mundane meal prep into something more pleasant. A washing machine is tucked in discreetly, which matters more than it sounds when you're planning weeks here rather than weekends. The bedroom is at the quieter end of the cottage. No street noise, no early traffic — just birds in the morning and the occasional rustling from the mature trees that ring the back of the 375-square-meter lot. That lot is the real story here. A pear tree, an apple tree, a cherry tree, and a magnolia that puts on an extraordinary show every April. The rear of the garden is genuinely secluded: dense summer growth means you could host a lunch back there and your neighbors wouldn't know. A hammock is already strung bet ... click here to read more

Six o'clock on a July morning. The air coming through the bedroom window carries pine resin and cold lake water, and somewhere across the meadow a woodpecker is already at work. You pull on a sweater, step off the patio, and walk barefoot through the grass toward Lake Viken — ninety seconds, maybe less — while the rest of the house sleeps. This is not a scene from a magazine. This is the daily rhythm at Åsen Klippnäset 90, and it's available right now for a fraction of what comparable waterside properties cost anywhere else in Scandinavia. Set in the Halna district of Töreboda municipality in Sweden's Västra Götaland region, this three-bedroom holiday home sits on a 973-square-metre plot at the end of a quiet lane with mature forest on two sides and open water within easy walking distance. It's the kind of place that regulars come back to summer after summer, the kind of place their kids will spend the rest of their lives trying to recreate for their own children. The main house covers 61 square metres and is organised across four rooms, which sounds compact until you actually stand inside it. The layout is tight but logical — nothing is wasted. A kitchen that functions exactly as a summer kitchen should, set up for large batches of crayfish and pots of coffee going simultaneously, with a serving window that opens directly toward the patio so whoever's cooking doesn't have to miss the conversation. The living room anchors everything with a fireplace that gets serious use from April through September, because Swedish summer evenings have a way of turning cool just as the mood turns good. Three bedrooms sleep the full crew comfortably, and when the overflow arrives — cousins, old friends, whoever shows up on Midsommar E ... click here to read more

Step off the gravel track at Lilla Pjäkebo on a September morning and the first thing you notice is the silence. Not the uncomfortable, something-is-wrong kind — the deep, earned quiet of forest edge countryside in Småland, broken only by the knock of a woodpecker somewhere up in the pines. The air smells of damp moss and, faintly, of woodsmoke drifting from a neighbor you can't even see. This is the Sweden that Swedes themselves escape to on weekends, and this 1909 cottage — solid, well-cared-for, sitting on over 5,300 square meters of land — is the real thing. The house is small in the way that forces you to live well. Seventy-eight square meters across three rooms, arranged with the practical logic of old Swedish torp design: nothing wasted, nothing unnecessary. The wooden floors are original, worn to a warm honey color from over a century of use. Large windows pull the meadow and treeline right into the living room, so even on grey November days the space feels connected to something bigger than itself. The kitchen does what a good country kitchen should — gives you room to make proper food, to leave a pot of elk stew on the stove without bumping into anyone, to look out at the garden while you wash up. Both bedrooms are quiet. Genuinely quiet. The kind of quiet where you actually sleep differently. The updated bathroom is modern without being clinical — new fixtures, clean lines, and none of the awkward compromise that often comes when someone tries to modernize an old country house. Then there's the magasin. A classic Swedish barn outbuilding that the current owners have made genuinely useful rather than just atmospheric. The ground floor functions as a guest house — real accommodation for friends or family, not ... click here to read more

The coffee is already brewing when you step out onto the covered terrace at Hjortronvägen 26. It's half past seven on a Tuesday in July, the birch trees are dead still, and somewhere behind the treeline you can hear the Baltic. That particular hush — the one you only get in the Swedish archipelago fringe on a windless summer morning — settles over the yellow clapboard walls of this cottage like it was built just for this moment. It kind of was. This sun-yellow summer house in Kaggebo has been doing its job since 1976, and it does it well. Three bedrooms, 61 square metres of thoughtfully used interior space, a separate guest cottage, and a plot that stretches to 2,002 square metres of lawn and native woodland. At 149,500 SEK, it sits comfortably within reach for international buyers looking for a genuine Swedish holiday home without the price tag that comes with the more famous archipelago addresses further north. Step inside and the open-plan living room and kitchen greet you with soft Scandinavian tones and freshly laid pine flooring that still carries that faint warm resin smell on sunny afternoons. Large windows pull the garden light into every corner. The layout is honest — no wasted corridors, no awkward half-rooms — just a bright, functional space designed around the rhythm of summer living: come in from the water, dry off, cook something simple, eat outside. One of the three bedrooms comfortably fits a double bed, the other two work well for children or guests, and the whole thing flows with an ease that properties twice the size often fail to achieve. The covered terrace off the living area is where you'll spend most of your time. Sheltered, private, and positioned to catch the evening light, it handles everyt ... click here to read more

Picture this: a quiet Tuesday morning in July, the sun already climbing over the treeline east of Bergbyslingan, hitting your south-facing terrace at an angle that makes the coffee steam glow gold. The lake glints through the open kitchen window. Somewhere down the path, a kayak scrapes against a dock. This is not a weekend fantasy — this is just the ordinary Tuesday you get when you own a place like this. The cottage sits in Bergby, a small community about ten minutes by car from central Hallstavik and roughly an hour north of Stockholm along the E18. It's the kind of area that regulars have kept quiet about for years — Lake Mälaren-adjacent archipelago country, where the forests run thick with birch and pine and the light in late June barely dims before midnight. Norrtälje municipality, which governs this stretch of Uppland coast, has long attracted Stockholmers looking for a foothold outside the city without the traffic chaos of the west coast. Word is getting out. The cottage itself is compact and deliberate — 43 square meters on a private plot of roughly 295 square meters, sold as a cooperative unit (bostadsrätt). That ownership structure is worth understanding upfront. For international buyers, bostadsrätt means you own shares in the housing association that gives you full, exclusive right to the property, including the terrace and the plot. It's a standard and well-regulated form of ownership in Sweden, and it typically means the association handles exterior maintenance, insurance on the building shell, and communal grounds — six thousand square meters of jointly managed green space surrounding the cluster of properties here. Practically speaking, it reduces the burden of ownership significantly, especially if y ... click here to read more

Saturday morning on Linneuspromenaden and the neighborhood is just waking up. Someone's brewing coffee two gardens over, you can smell it. The fruit trees in your 410-square-meter plot are doing their thing—dappled light on the wooden deck, a blackbird working through the lawn—and you've got nowhere to be. That's the particular pleasure of owning a place like this in Elinelund, a quietly residential pocket of Malmö that most visitors never find but locals never leave. The house itself is compact and honest. Forty square meters of main living space, built in 1960 and kept in genuinely good condition over the decades—not frozen in amber, but updated where it matters. Large windows in the living room pull the garden right into the interior, so even on grey Swedish autumn days the space doesn't feel closed in. The kitchen is functional and properly equipped, the kind where you can actually cook rather than just heat things up. Two bedrooms handle a couple or a small family without drama. One bathroom. Everything you need, nothing you don't. What lifts this property well above comparable holiday homes at this price point is the guest house completed in 2021. Fifteen square meters, finished to a high standard, giving visiting friends or family genuine privacy rather than an air mattress in the living room. It works as a creative studio, a work-from-anywhere office during shoulder season, or simply overflow space when the cousins arrive in July. Having a self-contained outbuilding on a plot this size in Malmö is not something you find every day. The conservatory earns its keep across every season. In June it's where you eat breakfast before the day heats up. In October it's where you watch the garden turn colour with a glass ... click here to read more

Step outside on a January morning and the silence hits you first. Not the silence of an empty room — the deep, pressurized quiet of a landscape buried in snow, with Borgahällan mountain rising sharp and white against a sky that hasn't decided yet between pink and blue. The wood stove in the kitchen is already ticking with warmth. The coffee is on. This is the daily reality of owning a cabin on Näslunds väg. Borgafjäll sits in the southern reaches of Swedish Lapland, in Dorotea municipality, and it's the kind of place that takes a deliberate effort to find. That's the point. There's no motorway exit sign, no chain hotels, no tour groups spilling off coaches. What there is: a compact, genuine mountain community that has somehow stayed exactly as it should be — a ski center with slopes for everyone from cautious seven-year-olds to serious off-piste skiers, a hotel with a proper spa, a local grocery, and a pub where people actually know each other's names. The après-ski here isn't performative. It's just locals and guests sharing a table after a hard day on the mountain. This particular cabin has a story that most properties can't claim. It was originally constructed at Borgahällan — a site known locally as Luspen — and later carefully dismantled, transported, and rebuilt on its current plot. The traditional log construction survived that journey intact. Built in 1968, the bones of this house carry the weight of a specific era of Swedish mountain building: practical, solid, unpretentious. Over the decades it's been maintained with real care, which you can see in the way the wood has aged rather than deteriorated. At 40 square meters, the interior is compact by design, and every part of it earns its space. The kitchen and ... click here to read more

Picture this: it's a Tuesday morning in February, the thermometer reads minus eight, and through the frost-edged window above the kitchen sink you can see fresh snow sitting heavy on the pine branches. The wood-burning stove has already been going for an hour, the sauna is warming up, and the ski runs at Tandådalen are a short drive away. This is what five weeks a year at Salbäcksvägen 16 actually feels like. The property sits in Salbäcksheden, a quiet residential pocket of the greater Sälen area in Dalarna, Sweden's most serious mountain destination. Sälen isn't some weekend novelty — it's home to Scandinavia's largest ski resort system, the interconnected SkiStar network that links Tandådalen, Hundfjället, Lindvallen, and Högfjället across dozens of pistes and hundreds of kilometers of groomed cross-country trails. The nearest resort entrances are just minutes from the front door. Built in 2004 and kept in genuinely good shape, this 120-square-meter house is sold as Share C in a ten-owner co-ownership structure. Each owner gets five weeks of guaranteed annual use, decided at a meeting every September. For 2026, the allocated weeks are 5, 8, 25, 26, and 42 — that's two prime winter weeks in the heart of ski season, a summer slot when the valley is green and warm, an early autumn week when the birch trees turn copper, and a late winter booking that often catches the tail of good snow conditions. The annual running cost sits at around 13,000 SEK, which keeps the whole arrangement genuinely affordable compared to outright ownership of a comparable property in the region. Step inside through the hallway and the layout immediately makes sense for a mountain house. The open living space puts the wood stove at the center of ... click here to read more

Early June morning in Tived: the forest is completely silent except for a woodpecker somewhere back in the pines, and the air carries that particular smell — cold water, moss, and something faintly resinous — that you only get this deep into Swedish wilderness. You step outside with your coffee, barefoot on the grass, and realize you're about three minutes from one of the most raw and untouched stretches of nature in Scandinavia. That's the daily reality at Göte Hellmans väg 5. This compact one-bedroom house sits in the quiet cottage community of Tived, in Laxå municipality — a part of Sweden that most international visitors never find, which is precisely what makes it so good. The property spans 44 square meters of interior space on a generous 963-square-meter plot, giving you far more garden than house, in the best possible way. Built in 1966 and currently in good condition, it's a classic Swedish holiday cottage with honest bones and serious potential. Let's talk about what surrounds it first, because the location is genuinely the headline here. A short walk takes you down to Sannerud and the shores of Lake Unden, one of Värmland's larger lakes, where the water runs clear and cold and the small marina sees more rowboats than speedboats. There's a local beach for swimming through July and August, a boat ramp along the tourist road for a small fee if you want to launch your own vessel, and fishing that draws regulars back season after season — pike and perch mostly, if you ask around. The pace is unhurried. Nobody is in a rush. That's the point. Tiveden National Park is roughly 10 kilometers away. If you haven't been, it's worth knowing that Tiveden is unlike the manicured Scandinavian nature reserves you might expec ... click here to read more

There's a specific kind of quiet that settles over Eklundsfältet on a Tuesday morning in July. No traffic. Just birdsong, the distant lapping of Lake Måsnaren, and the smell of sun-warmed wood drifting through an open window. You put the coffee on, step onto the patio in your slippers, and the day belongs entirely to you. That's the reality of life at Gurkstigen 37 — a compact, well-kept summer cottage sitting in one of Södertälje's most sought-after allotment communities, just 50 metres from the water's edge. Eklundsfältet is the kind of place that takes ten minutes to fall in love with. It's a proper Swedish allotment area — organised, leafy, with neighbours who actually know each other's names. The association house, Aklejan, sits just a short walk from the cottage and gives you access to shared showers and laundry facilities, which means longer stays are genuinely comfortable rather than a compromise. There's a real community spirit here. Midsommar gets celebrated properly. People share seeds, tools, gardening tips, and occasionally a cold beer over the fence on hot afternoons. The cottage itself covers 30 square metres — and yes, that sounds modest, but the layout makes every centimetre work. Large windows pull in the daylight and give the interior a sense of airiness that belies the footprint. The living space is warm and considered, with nothing wasted. What sets this cottage apart from many others in the area is the indoor toilet — genuinely rarer than you'd expect at this price point and in this type of property — and a wood-burning stove in the kitchen that doubles as both cooking surface and the fastest way to take the edge off a cool May evening. Light it up, pour a glass of something, and the whole space ... click here to read more

The smell hits you first. Pine resin warming in the morning sun, damp earth from the night's dew, and somewhere just beyond the treeline, the faint mineral coolness of the lake. You haven't even stepped off the veranda yet, and already the week ahead feels completely different from the one you just left behind. This is Vallsänge 6468 — a freshly built A-frame tucked into a 1,532-square-metre woodland plot in Kilafors, a quiet corner of Gävleborg County in central Sweden. The house went up in 2024. Everything inside is untouched, unscuffed, built for a first owner who wants to walk in and simply live, not renovate. Bergviken lake is a hundred metres away. That's not marketing shorthand for a distant glimmer on the horizon — it's genuinely a two-minute walk through the pines. On summer mornings you can be in the water before your coffee has cooled. The lake is calm and clean, the kind that turns gold-pink around nine in the evening when the Swedish summer light does that thing it does, low and endless, making everything look slightly unreal. The A-frame form isn't just a style choice. The steep-pitched roof handles heavy snow loads without a second thought, and the tall triangular windows that define the front facade pull light deep into the living space throughout the year — not just in July, when Sweden barely gets dark, but also in February, when every photon counts. The open-plan kitchen and living area feel larger than 40 square metres should allow. Good spatial planning does that. There's an additional 7 square metres of secondary space — useful for gear, a sleeping nook, or the kind of overflow storage that a holiday home always eventually needs. Outside, the stone fireplace is the centrepiece of the plot's soci ... click here to read more

Step onto the terrace on a Saturday morning in July and you'll hear it before you see it — the faint splash and laughter carrying over from the Fasalt pool area, just a short walk through the trees. The coffee in your hand is still steaming. The forest at the edge of the garden is absolutely still. This is what a Swedish summer actually feels like, and Ljungeldsvägen 18 puts you right in the middle of it. This three-bedroom cottage sits on a 790-square-metre natural plot in Fasalt, a quiet pocket of northwestern Skåne that most international buyers haven't yet discovered. At 65 square metres, the house is compact by design — every room has a purpose, nothing feels wasted, and the layout draws you naturally from inside to outside rather than keeping you anchored to a sofa. That's rare, and it matters when you're here to actually live, not just stay. The interior was fully renovated over roughly eight years, finishing in recent times, and the work was done with a clear eye for what made the original 1970s bones worth preserving. The kitchen is the first thing that catches you — classic checkered floor tiles in black and white, cabinetry that nods to the era without tipping into kitsch, and enough counter space to actually cook a proper meal after a day on the trails. Swedes take their outdoor kitchens and harvest tables seriously, and this kitchen has the spirit of both. The wood-burning stove in the open-plan living and dining area is the kind of fixture that changes how you use a space. On a grey October evening when the birches outside have gone amber and the temperature drops sharply, you'll light it and not think twice about spending the whole night indoors. The large windows facing the terrace pull double duty: th ... click here to read more

Step outside on a July morning and the lake is already glittering through the birch trees, maybe fifty paces from your front door. By the time the coffee is ready, you can hear the water. That's the daily reality at Stensbovägen 21 — a compact, well-kept house on a generous 2,363 square metre plot in Stensbo, one of those quietly kept corners of Dalarna that locals don't rush to advertise. Built in 1991, the house is 61 square metres of sensible, unfussy living space — two bedrooms, one bathroom, four rooms total — with an extra 10 square metres of secondary space that can absorb whatever life throws at it. A boot room for muddy trails, a workbench for tinkering, a quiet reading corner. The layout is tight without feeling cramped, the kind of floor plan that actually works for two people or a small family rather than looking good on paper and frustrating you in practice. Large windows pull the garden inside, and in the long Nordic summer evenings, the light in here goes golden somewhere around nine o'clock and stays that way for a while. The plot is the real story. At 2,363 square metres, this is serious outdoor space by any standard — not a manicured suburban garden but a proper, usable piece of ground that rewards investment. Raised vegetable beds, a fire pit area, apple trees, room for a greenhouse. Or none of those things — just space and silence and the smell of grass after rain. Two outbuildings come with the property: a traditional Swedish härbre (a historic log storage building that is frankly one of the most atmospheric structures you'll find on a residential plot anywhere) and a guest cottage that gives visiting family or friends their own front door and their own privacy. That last detail matters more than p ... click here to read more

There's a particular kind of quiet that settles over Lundsbäck on a Saturday morning in June. The kind where you hear bees before you see them, where the smell of someone else's tomato plants drifts over the low hedge, and where your only real decision is whether to take your coffee in the conservatory or carry it out to the garden table while the dew is still burning off. That's the rhythm this 39-square-meter cottage runs on — and once you've tasted it, the city starts to feel very far away indeed. Tucked inside the Lundsbäck Koloniförening allotment community in Helsingborg's Vasatorp district, this one-bedroom summer house is a genuinely well-thought-out small space. At 39 sqm, every square meter is earning its keep. The glass-fronted conservatory greets you as you arrive and immediately does double duty — it's the first room you walk into and the last one you want to leave. On rainy Swedish afternoons (and there will be a few), it's where you'll eat dinner listening to drops on the glass. On sunny evenings, the doors fold back and it becomes an open-air dining room with a roof, which is exactly as useful as it sounds. Inside, the layout flows naturally from the conservatory into a furnished TV room, then into a well-proportioned bedroom that handles a double bed and actual storage without feeling cramped. The kitchen has more counter space than you'd expect and a proper spot for a dining table — so cooking here doesn't mean exiling yourself from conversation. A toilet sits neatly between the bedroom and kitchen. It's compact, yes, but the design has been done with enough intelligence that compact doesn't feel tight. The garden is genuinely the heart of this property. The plot is sunny from morning through evening ... click here to read more

Early Saturday morning in Ljungbyhed, the air carries something you can't quite name — pine resin, damp earth, maybe the faint sweetness of wildflowers along the stream that cuts through the back of the plot. The wood-burning stove is still warm from the night before. You pull on a jacket and step outside onto 1,400 square metres of your own ground, and for a moment, Sweden feels like the best decision you've ever made. This three-bedroom house at Prästmöllan 1032 sits in the quiet countryside of Klippans kommun in northern Skåne, one of Sweden's most quietly compelling regions. It's not a showpiece — it's better than that. It's a genuinely liveable, recently updated home with a big plot, mature surroundings, and one of Sweden's finest national parks less than ten minutes away by car. At 65,500 EUR, it's one of the more honestly priced second home opportunities in Scandinavia right now. The house itself covers 70 square metres of main living space plus an additional 10 square metres of secondary area — compact but well-organised, the kind of layout that encourages you to actually be outside rather than rattling around indoors. Five rooms means you have real flexibility: three bedrooms, a sitting room anchored by a wood-burning stove that's been inspected and approved, and space left over for however you like to work or unwind. The bathroom was fully renovated in 2022, with clean modern fittings that feel considered rather than just functional. The roof was replaced with new felt in 2024. An air-to-air heat pump, also installed in 2024, handles both heating in winter and cooling in summer. Municipal water and sewage connections were completed in 2022. These aren't cosmetic updates — they're the expensive, structural thi ... click here to read more

Early on a Saturday morning in July, you pour a coffee in the kitchen—light streaming through leaded glass panes, the faint smell of birch from last night's fire still hanging in the air—and push open the double glass doors onto a sun-drenched wooden deck. The trees are still. Somewhere down through the pines, Hanskrokaviken glints. You have nowhere to be. This is Högslingan 55 on Ingarö, and owning it feels a little like exhaling. Ingarö sits in the outer reaches of the Stockholm archipelago, part of Värmdö municipality, roughly 50 kilometers east of the city center. The island is not the wild, ferry-only kind of archipelago that takes half a day to reach—it's connected, reachable, and deeply livable. Bus 433 from Eknäsvägen delivers you to Slussen in about 50 minutes, which means a Friday evening escape from central Stockholm and a Sunday evening return is genuinely uncomplicated. For international buyers flying into Arlanda or Bromma, the drive out via the E18 and Route 222 takes around an hour, winding past boathouses, spruce forests, and roadside wild strawberry patches in summer. The house itself is compact in the best possible way. Thirty-three square meters sounds small on paper, but the renovation here was done with real intention. White-painted walls bounce light around the rooms, and the decision to paint the deep window niches in dark forest green was a bold one—it works completely. The leaded windows throughout give the cottage a kind of quiet personality. Exposed ceiling beams, light wooden floors, a kitchen designed in a practical U-shape with room to actually cook: this is a place where someone thought carefully about how people live in small spaces, then built accordingly. The wood-burning stove in th ... click here to read more

Stand on the south-facing terrace at Törnbotten 113 on a late June morning and you'll understand immediately why Öland has been pulling people across the Kalmar Strait for centuries. The meadows ahead of you stretch all the way to the treeline of Mittlandsskogen, Sweden's largest contiguous deciduous forest. Swallows cut low over the grass. The only sound is wind moving through the stone wall that borders your plot. It's 7am and you're already outside, coffee in hand, with nowhere to be. This is a genuinely rare find. An architect-designed, newly built home on a Swedish island that gets more sunshine hours than almost anywhere else in the country — and it's priced as a vacation home purchase, not a mainland city premium. The house at Törnbotten 113 sits in Färjestaden on the island of Öland, connected to the mainland city of Kalmar by the 6km Öland Bridge — one of the longest bridges in Europe and, frankly, one of the more satisfying drives you'll ever make, with the Baltic spreading out on both sides. The architect behind this home is M. Rutensköld, winner of both the Red Dot Award and the Swedish Design Award. That pedigree shows in every decision made here, from the passage between the two building volumes — a direct nod to the traditional rad byar, the row villages that define Öland's historic landscape — to the vitriol-treated wood facade that will weather gradually to a soft silver-grey, the way old Öland barns do. This isn't a house trying to look Scandinavian. It actually is. Inside, the ceilings climb to five metres at their peak. Natural light doesn't just enter the house — it moves through it, shifting from the south-facing living areas in the morning to the north and east-facing loft windows by afternoon. ... click here to read more

The wood-burning stove is already crackling when you wake up on a Saturday morning in October, and through the big living room windows you can see frost on the grass and mist sitting low over the pines. By 9am you're pulling on boots and walking the 550 metres down to the dock at Korgil, thermos in hand, watching a grey heron stand absolutely still at the water's edge. This is what a second home in the Swedish archipelago actually feels like — unhurried, raw, and genuinely restorative in a way that a week in a hotel never manages to be. Mörtvägen 2 sits on a generous 2,353 square metre plot in Korgil, a quiet pocket of Norrtälje municipality roughly 90 kilometres north of Stockholm. Herräng itself is the kind of place most Swedes know mainly because of the Herräng Dance Camp — a legendary annual swing dance festival that transforms this sleepy coastal village every July into something quietly electric. The rest of the year, it belongs to the locals, the summer regulars, and anyone sharp enough to have bought a place here before word got out. The house dates from 1967 and measures 54 square metres — compact, yes, but the layout earns every centimetre. Two bedrooms. A living room anchored by that wood-burning stove. A kitchen big enough to actually cook in, not just heat things up. Large windows pull the garden and the treeline inside, and the open connection between kitchen, dining area, and living room means a household of four or five people can move around each other without friction. On summer evenings the whole ground floor flows out onto the wide wooden deck, where there's room for a proper outdoor table, a gas grill, and still space left over to stretch out on a sun lounger and do absolutely nothing. The guest h ... click here to read more
