About the holiday home

Welcome to gather friends and family to a fantastic accommodation with beautiful surroundings right next to Mörrumsån.

The house, which dates back to the 19th century, has been used as a private residence as well as by Red Cross activities in the post-war period. You are already greeted at the main entrance on the veranda by an inviting, beautiful and contemporary interior. The house has been carefully renovated with well-preserved windows and high ceilings, but still modern. Here, peace can be found and the days are spent indoors by mixed ages in everything from playrooms, social rooms to dining rooms. A spacious kitchen with all possibilities for self-catering and with large fridge space for storing food and drinks.

The well-proportioned bedrooms with varying numbers of beds and storage are furnished with beautiful interior details in different styles. Most bedrooms have a double bed, but there are also some family rooms with bunk beds distributed on both levels. A family room on the upper floor at the front with large windows with a view, has room for many people on the sofa in front of the smart TV. In adjoining rooms there are toys for the children, including a school desk from the past. The dining rooms downstairs have room for all 21 people for shared and pleasant moments at meals. Two bathrooms upstairs, one with both a shower and a bathtub. There are a total of 4 toilets, distributed upstairs and downstairs.

Outside, everyone can gather on the furnished patio for barbecues and communal activities. In the garden there is history in the form of two "King Stones" that can arouse the curiosity of anyone to know more about. There are bodies of water on the grounds of the house, so children must be supervised. In addition, the garden adjoins a nature conservation area that requires certain rules of conduct to stay in. The house is alarmed upon arrival. Abborresjön's swimming area with sandy beach and jetty within walking distance or a short drive from the house. Possibility of walking in the nature reserve's beautiful deciduous forests and, of course, for those interested in fishing, the famous salmon fishing in Mörrumsån. A short drive takes you to Karlshamn. A cozy small-town idyll that offers shopping, restaurants along the edge of the quay and archipelago tours daily during the summer. Kreativum Science Center, a science center for the curious of all ages can be highly recommended.

Welcome to Blekinge, "Sweden's Garden".

About Olofström

Olofström, a hidden gem nestled in the heart of Blekinge County, offers a unique blend of natural beauty, rich history, and a forward-thinking community. This small town, surrounded by lush forests, crystal-clear lakes, and rolling hills, provides an idyllic escape from the bustle of modern life, making it a perfect destination for those seeking peace and inspiration.

At the heart of Olofström’s charm is its deep connection to nature. With vast forests and a network of hiking and biking trails, outdoor enthusiasts are spoilt for choice. Whether it's a quiet walk through the woods, a refreshing swim in one of the many nearby lakes, or a peaceful boat ride on the Östra Ljungbyå River, the stunning landscape invites exploration and offers a sense of serenity that only nature can provide. The changing seasons bring their own beauty—vibrant spring blooms, lush summer greenery, golden autumn leaves, and snow-covered landscapes in winter—all contributing to the town’s allure.

Olofström's history is one of transformation and resilience. Originally a center for the timber industry, the town has evolved into a hub for innovation, particularly in the field of engineering and technology. Olofström is home to several cutting-edge businesses, notably in the automotive sector, where it plays a key role in manufacturing high-quality components for major car brands. This balance between tradition and innovation reflects the town's spirit—a place where the past’s hard work meets the future’s possibilities.

But beyond its natural and industrial assets, Olofström is a community driven by warmth and a strong sense of togetherness. The people here take pride in their heritage while embracing change, working together to create a sustainable future. The town hosts various cultural events, sports activities, and local festivals that bring people together and celebrate both the present and the past.

About Blekinge

The area is also called “Sveriges Trädgård”, the garden of Sweden, because of its beautiful nature, sea and archipelago. Almost all of Blekinge is beautifully situated along the Baltic Sea with its own archipelago and small and large islands. Angling in the river of Mörrum is very popular, but also many of the small lakes in the area attract a lot of angling enthusiasts.

Even though Blekinge is situated a bit off the beaten track, there is still something for every taste. Experience the nature from the bicycle- and hiking paths which are all over Blekinge. The Blekinge route of 22 miles is the most challenging one. The area offers opportunity to go hiking, canoe paddling and sailing. The long stretch of coast and the many lakes have a lot to offer both for fishing enthusiasts as well as for those who just want to relax in the beautiful nature.

In Karlshamn, it is possible to angle in the world-famous Mörrum River or catch sea trout in Norje gryt or Sillnäss Udde. Catch garfish in Hällevik or Tredenborg, or why not enjoy fresh-caught perch from Valjeviken for dinner?

You may dive in the Baltic Sea at Karlshamn or spend the day on Sölvesborg beach, which is the finest sand beach in Blekinge. Experience the archipelago on foot, bicycle or from a boat. Stop on a small island and enjoy a picnic in the beautiful nature.

However, also Blekinge has other things to offer. The whole family can have a lot of fun and challenges at Kreativum (which corresponds to Eksperimentarium in Denmark). 2000 m2 are filled with play and learn activities and there are also a number of outdoor facilities. One of the three largest cinemas in Sweden, Mega Dome, is also worth visiting.

At the maritime museum in Karlskrona, you will find the history of the Swedish navy illustrated by original models from the 17th century up till today – among other things the submarine is worth visiting. Go exploring the exciting underground tunnel and learn more about the marine archaeological world. Furthermore Karlskrona is on Unesco’s list of World Heritage sites.

For those interested in music, Norje, Sölvesborg and Sweden Rock Festival are all being held in June. Hällvik Tradjazzfestival starts in August and takes place in the small fishing hamlet in Listerlandet.

Børnenes Gård, with focus on life in the countryside, is an exciting attraction for families with children. Here you will find a refreshing water park, where the children can play while the parents relax. Furthermore there are a number of other activities aimed at children.

Excursions in the nature are a must in Sweden. Ronneby Brunnspark is one of the most beautiful parks in Sweden with different events and exhibitions. Räntemåla Gården offers activities in the nature. Among other things, it is possible to experience dears and elks in their natural environment. In Karlshamn, you can go horse riding as in the Wild West, rent Iceland ponies and make a trip on horseback.

It is very easy to spend a whole day in the nature reserve Tjärö which has free ranging animals, fields and meadows. It is also possible to visit caves, cliffs or paddle a canoe to the small islands nearby.

At Tärnö in the archipelago of Hällaryd, it is very easy to relax in the beautiful surroundings. Take a walk in the picturesque, unique and authentic streets. Hanö is also a very popular tourist attraction and has, among other things, a beautiful, well-preserved city heart dating back to the Middle Ages.

In Ronneby you can relax on the golf course, but you can also choose the course in Sölvesborg in the most beautiful location, or may be you prefer the large 36-hole course in Karlshamnn. Make a trip to the fortress island, Kastellet, where plays are performed in the summer. Visit the house of adventure, Boda Borg in Sävsjö, where it is possible to test your physical and intellectual ability. A visit to the automobile museum in Olofström is a must for automobile enthusiasts. Pay a visit to Snärjeskogen which is the most splendid event area of Blekinge. You can taste different wines and whiskeys, fish for crabs, take a bath in the large heated Viking baths or just enjoy nature and a well deserved gourmet meal.

In short, Blekinge has a lot to offer both for those who seek experiences in the nature and those looking for adventure, culture or just some peace and quiet.
