About this house rental

Villa Björklöven is a holiday home for the discerning guest. Built in 2011 according to the latest standard, it fulfills (almost) every wish: underfloor heating and triple glazing made the interior work possible up to the roof. You will immediately feel comfortable in the airy and bright rooms. The living area and kitchen are integrated and have floor-to-ceiling windows on three sides. The lake view is phenomenal. Two bathrooms and the sauna are just as standard as a washing machine (with integrated dryer), dishwasher, shoe dryer, TV with preset German programs etc.
The most beautiful is the 135,000 m² nature site, which is also in the middle of the landscape protection area and extends to the lake. You only share this huge area with two other holiday homes, as well as the Villa Hultängen, which is located somewhat higher. Families who are friends can also rent two houses together. Due to the location on the lake, the property is particularly low in mosquitoes - a great advantage.

The surrounding area: Villa Björklöven can be reached via a private driveway (approx. 150 meters). The property is characterized by rich trees and only opens to the lake. Now look directly at the wonderful Rottnansee and the Gettjärns-Klättan nature reserve opposite, to which you can paddle over by canoe to hike up romantic forest paths and enjoy a magnificent panoramic view of the lake landscape. But our property is also worth exploring: meadows, birch groves and groves alternate; two small torrents are not only interesting for children. The private lake shore with its 400 meters length is not common even in Sweden. From here you can see the many small bays of Lake Rottnansee, which has a bit of a fjord character. The surrounding area is little built up and gently wavy - the views of the lake are always beautiful. The next town Gräsmark is 7 km away; Here you will find everything for shopping: (supermarket, petrol station, post office).

The wider area: After two or three days of acclimatization, you will certainly feel the need for a longer excursion: The town of Sunne, 20 km away, is located on Lake Frykensee and is already ideal for more extensive 'shopping'. There is also an adventure pool with lots of slides for children, mini golf, bowling, etc. Before Sunne, also at Frykensee, there is a golf course worth seeing and the Rottneros Park, which is also worthwhile for children with its manor house and the great gardens, because here they can get rid of excess energy on the adventure playground while the parents relax in the 'Rottneros Café'. A tip for gourmets is the lonely 'Värdshus' on Lake Tväll. (Via Gräsmark towards the Norwegian border). Before you go past the highly recommended Kymmensee.

Did you know that Värmland is known as an artist province? The royal linen weaving mill is well worth a visit to Klässbol near Arvika. B. also if you want to buy a tablecloth 'forever'. By the way: the king is almost our neighbor, his holiday home is on Lake Rottnansee! Sweden's largest arts and crafts fair takes place once a year in July in Brunskog near Arvika: traditional handicrafts in and around historic buildings are demonstrated here, and Swedish folklore groups fiddle and dance. Villa Björklöven is not only suitable for summer holidays: the nearest ski area is only 10 km away.

The property is down a short track with two other properties. These are well spaced out and grounds cleverly divided with trees and bushes to form private areas. The grounds slope down to the lake which is a couple of minutes walk and has a small boat dock. If you hire a boat you have a key for the boat padlock, battery and tiller. There are lots of trees and the road is not at all busy so it is very quiet and relaxing. Grasmark a couple of miles north has a small supermarket and single petrol pump, Sunne is about 20 mins SE with a big supermarket, shop to buy alcohol and a great fishing shop. Down by the lake is a seating area, trampoline (which our kids loved) and play park items. The house has bbq, games, frisbees, badminton net & rackets, two bikes and a couple of fishing rods (all of this in mixed condition). As the property is off a long road we found you were either in the grounds or driving elsewhere to do things (brilliant beach at top end of lake). The house is really well equipped and the instructions for the house are clear, do read them early on! It is clean and well maintained but like all VRBO properties cumulative annual wear means some limited mould around showers, marks on walls and little bits of damage here and there. One key point is you need to bring your own sheets and towels, or arrange in advance for this service which I think costs €20 pp. We missed this but were saved by Christiane, thank you.

We felt very comfortable in the cottage, took advantage of the opportunities on the property (playground, canoeing) and had a very good rest. We will be happy to come again.

Das Haus liegt sehr schön gelegen am See. Durch den Abstand und der Gestaltung des Grundstücks hat man fast das Gefühl einer Alleinlage. Die Waschmaschine inkl. Trockner hilft das Urlaubsgepäck klein zu halten. Auf Anfrage waren auch Handtücher und Bettwäsche gegen Aufpreis verfügbar, vielen Dank nochmal dafür. Für Angelausflüge ist das Ruderboot inkl. Motor zu empfehlen, da der See doch sehr groß ist. Die Kanus laden zum Erkunden des See's ein, hier empfehlen wir zeitig bei Sonnenaufgang aufzubrechen, das Wasser ist zu dieser Zeit noch spiegelglatt. Die Sauna und der Kamin runden das Bild vollends ab. Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen und kommen gern wieder.
