Description
Me (Elina 35) and my partner Pontus (40) bought our beautiful farm in October 2022 and are now renovating and gardening as much as we can. The farm consist of two houses, one barn, a garage and a small cabin, all in need of care.
We live here with our three cuddely goats Bella, Ben and Milla, our 20+ chickens, our ducks Gunverth and Calle and our cat Missan.
The idea is to renovate both houses and we’ve started with the one we live in which was build sometime in the 1800. The other house is from 1965 where nothing has been renovated since then.
If you stay at our farm you will be offered to stay in the 1960s house but the house is not furnished. We’d recommend you to stay in a van or a tent for a more cozy experience since the house is really nothing special yet.
The projects that could be carried out here are everything from painting to gardening or taking care of the animals.
The surroundings are really beautiful to explore with a lot of forests and two very pretty lakes just 10 min away by car.

Accommodation
We have an empty house sitting around just next to ours which we will renovate in the future. Until then, it’s still possible to stay in - We can place a large air mattress fitting two people in it, or if you prefer you can use our tent ⛺️ or bring your own caravan.
Since the house needs some renovating and there are very few furniture in it we want our guests to know that stayed in the house equals simple living :)
You’ll have breakfast, lunch and dinner when you live here. Preparing the food could either be done together or by one of us depending on what our guests prefer. We like vegetarian food but also eat some local meat when available.
For breakfast, we’ll make sure you have what you need to prepare your own breakfast whenever you want.
