This renovated cottage in Småland looks out over Lake Sommen, with a spacious kitchen that takes in the water view and a south-facing terrace that opens the house to the outdoors. The cottage sleeps 12 across six bedrooms, making it a strong choice for a larger family gathering or a group stay.
Outside, the focus is on relaxed lake life and shared time together. There is a hot tub on the terrace for year-round use, a large sauna for 12, and another whirlpool for 6. Across the road, you have your own dock and private swimming area, and the garden adds a trampoline, slide, playhouse, and a barbecue area by the lake.
The setting is made for active days as well as quiet ones. Forests and marked trails surround the cottage, with hiking, cycling, jogging, and mountain bike routes close by. In winter, cross-country skiing and ice fishing are possible nearby, and Asbybacken ski resort is within reach for a day out.
Practical details are part of the stay too: the annex is occupied year-round, and the road and railway run nearby, with noise barriers and extra insulation in place. Tranås is a short drive away for shopping and dining, and Vimmerby and Astrid Lindgren’s World are also within day-trip distance.
