Our picturesque Swedish holiday cottage is peacefully situated on the edge of the forest and among the lakes. You can step right into nature: go hiking in the woods, canoeing on one of the countless lakes, or take a refreshing dip in the clear water. With a bit of luck, you might even spot a moose – we already saw one from our kitchen! The cottage is located in a popular holiday area with several cottages, so you can enjoy the tranquility of nature without being completely isolated.
We’re Joep and Naomi, the people behind Home Sweet Sweden. After living in Malung for many years, we know its forests, lakes and hidden gems well. We personally look after both holiday homes and are always happy to share local tips or help with your stay. We hope you’ll feel at home and enjoy the best of Swedish nature.
Very cosy cabin, surrounded by forest by a lake - great! The cabin has everything you need, it was clean and quiet. However, the steep staircase without a handrail and the beams running across the floor and ceiling require increased attention ;-)
We had a lovely few days. The cottage was a bit cramped or on the small side at times, but it was fully equipped and tidy.
A very quiet, simple and peaceful place to stay, right in the heart of nature. Just sitting at the back of the cottage, with the pine forest, the evening light and the pond right before my eyes, was magical! There were two of us adults staying there and it worked out fine, but given the steep stairs, we reckoned it wouldn’t be ideal for families with young children. Or, of course, you could have stayed in the little cottage instead.
We felt very much at home in the log cabin, which is superbly equipped. The location is absolutely brilliant and the view of the forest from the veranda is simply perfect.
A good, well-appointed stuga. The loft bedroom with two single beds has a low ceiling, so I would mainly recommend it for children. Adults might find it a bit cramped.
The location is really peaceful with the luxury of waking up in the woods with a cute little pond. With a small cabin in the backyard as well. Perfect accomodation to enjoy the nature.
We felt right at home at Joep’s place straight away. It’s cosily furnished and has everything you need! During our stay, we went on lots of walks, and when the weather was bad, we were able to relax on the sofa and read. We particularly liked the location of the accommodation and the living room. We’d come back any time!
A lovely stuga and a lovely area. Unfortunately, there were a few problems with mice, resulting in mouse droppings scattered around the cottage. We booked this stuga because of the extra beds in the small cottage next door, but unfortunately it was too cold to sleep there despite having the radiator on for 1–2 days.
good treatment, good house.
Very pretty cabin in the forest, well laid out. Extremely quiet spot. The children were able to enjoy a huge outdoor space and pick blueberries. As the location is out of the way, it is advisable to have a vehicle.
Nice cabin with veranda looking out on a beautiful little lake out back. Great calm stay for a necessary recharge! P.S. cottage is less suitable for tall people.
Very nice accommodation and an incredible host. Highly recommend
A very nice, quiet and peaceful place😊. Absolutely worth a visit😊
Upon arrival, we had expected a different setting. It actually gave us the feeling of being at a trailer park. The photos don’t quite match the actual experience of the location. As a cabin or hut, it’s a great place to stay with all the amenities you need. However, the close proximity to neighbors and the noise from the road meant it didn’t feel like a cabin in the woods to us. We thoroughly enjoyed the variety of birds in the wooded area behind the house.
It’s actually a nice cabin in the woods, but it has a lot of room for improvement. When we arrived, the cabin was unfortunately so dirty that we had to vacuum and wipe down the surfaces first. We were able to use the washing machine, but unfortunately there was no way to dry or hang up the laundry. When we asked about it, we were told that they would take care of it for the next guests. The cabin looks much older/more worn out than in the pictures, and some repairs are needed. We were provided with half a roll of toilet paper for two people for two nights, which was nowhere near enough. (no spare roll available)
We really enjoyed our stay there; the booking process was quick and straightforward, and Joep is very helpful. Shops are a 10-minute drive away. It was lovely; we’ll definitely be back.
What a brilliant place – far enough away from civilisation to enjoy nature, yet close enough to easily do all your shopping and so on. We had a lovely week and, although the days were short, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Even at -15, the cottage was so cosy! Joep always replied quickly and kindly – a Superhost with a brilliant cottage.
That's brilliant!
Getting there was very straightforward and our contact with the host was brilliant. Joep replied quickly and was always able to help us with any questions we had. The accommodation was very cosy and we felt right at home straight away.
A really cosy cottage out in the woods, set in incredibly beautiful surroundings with a lake nearby and a blueberry forest right on the doorstep. It’s in a peaceful area, so it’s perfect for couples or families with children.
A brilliant location and cottage. We’d love to come back.
A delightful and cozy house with comfortable beds. Bedding and towels were provided. The kitchen was well-equipped with dishes and pots. It's worth remembering to bring some spices and salt, as these were missing. There's a lawn available where children can play. The house is located right next to a forest rich in blueberries. It's just a few hundred meters from a lake with a small pier and very pleasant water. Note that the lake gets deep quickly without a gradual entry. The location is great for nature lovers. However, it's advisable to bring some insect repellent, as midges can be bothersome in the evening. Overall, a great place for a relaxing getaway, perfect for families and those seeking a peaceful retreat in nature.
Beau chalet scandinave tout en bois, bien aménagé dans un bel environnement naturel. Hôtes attentifs et à l'écoute. L'alcôve à deux lits est un peu exiguë pour des adultes.
