About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The House of Happiness

The Swedish path to happiness is called “lagom”: “Just right—not too much and not too little.”
Or as Astrid Lindgren puts it:
“And then, of course, you also have to have time to just sit there and gaze into the distance.”
Enjoy your time at Lyckans Hem: swim in the lake, go hiking, sit in the garden, and read a book. Don’t forget to visit Kalmar and Öland, the Astrid Lindgren World, and the wonderful loppis (flea markets). There are a thousand ways to enjoy Småland.
Our house is centrally located between Kalmar, Växjö, and Karlskrona, about 3 km from Route 25. It’s in a small, charming village with a swimming lake and beautiful hiking trails. If you’re looking to spend a nature-filled vacation in a house with all the amenities and a beautiful, large garden, right in the heart of nature, then you’ve come to the right place. You can also reach beautiful cities, shopping centers, and even Öland within 45 minutes.
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen and space to spread out with 2 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker. Housekeeping is available on request.
