Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Complimentary bicycles let you wander past coastal nature reserves, local pottery studios, and historic medieval churches across southern Gotland.
The rooms
Farmhouse rooms pair reclaimed oak beams and vintage Nordic furnishings with sheepskin seating and water-recycling showers.
The natural pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Stone paving and wild flora border the freshwater natural pool, set beside a turf-roofed, wood-fired sauna.
The spa & gym
At the table
The converted barn hosts multi-course farm dinners and bistro fare, drawing on produce harvested from the surrounding gardens.
How it began
Inspired by documentary farming, filmmakers Pontus and Susanna Rönn revived an old stone homestead with traditional island masonry.
