Large authentic and renovated villa on an idyllic lake - perfect for wintersport
A dream spot! A lovely house for a family, friends, or for a group up to 8 - 10 people, directly at a child-friendly and excellent swimming lake, with the use of a large Canadian 'Lindner' canoe which can also be used for good fishing. Sagen' dates from 1938 and has been completely renovated in authentic Swedish style; it has a large Finnish family sauna, large kitchen, a play/music room with piano, several fireplaces, two bathrooms and four bedrooms. In the large barn table tennis is played and it is a nice playing ground. A completely free space directly at the lake, near the most southern serious ski and cross-country skiing nature reserve of Sweden: "Hövfjallet" and an hour drive from the more cultivated ski area Branäs. This authentic Swedish villa with 4 hectares of private land all around is situated in a picturesque area between Sunne and Torsby, near the estate of Selma Lagerlöf. It lies directly by the lake 'Stora Lisjön', with good swimming temperature and a slowly sloping bank (up to approx. 2 m deep). The Lindner canoe gives you complete freedom on the lake, so you can also go to the island to play or barbeque.
The house is fully equipped: dishwasher, washing machine, microwave, large garden with garden furniture and BBQ, a Harman Kardon player, an HD television with modern connections for laptops, DVD player with a collection of films on DVD, well stocked bookcases and games, and of course 4G internet everywhere around the house.
About half an hour's drive away is the fantastic ski and cross-country skiing area Hövfjallet, where winter sports in Sweden can be enjoyed safely, exclusively and very affordably; it has 2 black slopes and several red slopes, together with a Fun Park for snowboarders, so don't think it is peanuts. For the real sporty skiers, these slopes offer an enormous challenge if one undercuts the Telemark skis ! There is a great ski school where these skills may be learned. Hövfjallet also has great opportunities for cross-country skiing if it is too cold to go skiing. This area is really 'WinterWonderLand'.
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio. There's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can expect to find a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.
Note from host: Roken is absoluut verboden in Sagen.

Traumhafter Urlaub in der Natur
Tolles Haus, toller See, tolle Lage, tolle Natur, Elchsichtung direkt am Haus. Alleinlage am See, abseits der Landstraße am Rand eines kleinen idyllischen Ortes. Leider kein Mückenschutz an den Fenstern und durch Schilf am Ufer Verletzungsgefahr der Füße. Kleiner Steg wäre toll. Dennoch traumhaftes Feriendomizil.

Fotos im Inserat schmeichelhaft - Umgebung toll
Am Anfang zu den schlechten Punkten.
Bei den Fotos zum Haus sollten keine Bilder von einer Terasse eines 6km entfernten Restaurants enthalten sein.
Der Aussenbereich hätten besser gepflegt sein können (Rasenmähen, Griller kaputt, Stühle nicht gewartet,usw).
OK, wir sind bereits Anfang Juni angereist (wahrscheinlich die ersten Gäste in diesem Sommer), allerdings hätte man diese Dinge vorher erledigen können.
Der Innenbereich war gepflegt und die Ausstattung in Ordnung (nur die Waschmaschine mussten wir reinigen). Doch wir hatten einen nicht geplanten Mitbewohner. Maus im Haus, was mich persönlich nicht gestört, meine Freunde allerdings irritiert hat.
Der Urlaub war jedoch sehr erholsam, da Lage und Umgebung sehr schön und ruhig sind.
Das zur Verfügung gestellte Kanu konnten wir sehr gut nutzen, da wir einige Male angeln gewesen sind.
Den Giller haben wir durch eine Feuerstelle im Garte gut ersetzen.

Schönes Schweden
Schöne einsame Lage, Nutzung von Kajaks und vielen Spielen möglich, gut eingerichtete Küche und Klavier.
Einzig eine Sanierung von Bädern und Farben im Haus würden den Charme des Hauses deutlich erhöhen. Wir haben uns mit Hund trotzdem wohl gefühlt.

Schweden von seiner schönsten Seite
Das Haus ist wunderbar direkt am See gelegen, es ist einfach aber schön eingerichtet, die Küche ist super ausgestattet, auch wenn man mit 10 Leuten isst. Holz zum heizen ist da und man bekommt das Haus gut warm. Vielen Dank für eine schöne Woche.
