I might be sitting here at my laptop in the city of Malmö today, but that doesn’t stop me from pretending I’m deep in the heart of the Swedish countryside. Fancy joining me?
This quintessential Swedish estate in Katrineholm is made up of several buildings not unlike Astrid Lindgren’s famous tale ‘The Children of Noisy Village’. Laidback and unpretentious, the main cottage is filled with antique furniture, wildflowers and plenty of books creating a wonderful, homely space in which to read, play back gammon, tinker away on a piano or simply relax!
On sunny days, life moves outside where everyone gets to splash around in the pool, tuck into long lunches or allow the sights and sounds of the Swedish wilderness to lull you into an afternoon nap. I’m sure it’s a great area for chanterelle picking too – but the owners would never let on!
How lovely. As someone who is currently thinking about building an outdoor cottage at our cabin, I was happy to see the simple solution of simply hanging a shower curtain (especially when the whole thing was getting more and more complicated in my mind).
I also really like the timeless, typically Swedish white and grey interior – made cosy with extra plump sofas, sheepskins and a big fireplace!
I’d love to hear what stood out to you.
Could you imagine spending your summers here? If so, the property is currently for sale here.
Now that I’ve got you in the mood, would you like to see a few other idyllic Swedish summer cottages today?
Oh, to spend the week in the Swedish countryside. Do you feel the same?
