Charming house from the 19th century, with many large living rooms and bedrooms. Glass veranda, balcony and outdoor furniture and barbeque grill.
In the garden there are large spaces for playing and also the opportunity to pick berries. You can buy eggs from our free-range chickens on the farm, as well as take a look in our small farm shop.
There is both mountain cows and horses grazing the paddocks around the houses. The house is close to the forest and a lake with a nice swimming area and a swimming dock.
A fireplace (wood stove) is located in the kitchen, but not in the living room.
