Peaceful retreat yet close to city delights.....
Mr. Warmenius' (Tord) and his daughter's cottage is a fully complete and comfortable lodging. We stayed 9 days and used it as a base from which to see many interesting and lovely sights in the surrounding southern Sweden area and also to take day trips to the cities of Gothenberg and Trollhatten. Neither are long driving distances.
Locally, many forest walks are available as the cottage backs up to trails and the woods. Bird song abounds and aside from the occasional vehicle all is tranquil and quiet. I found the swimming beach delightful and within walking or easy biking distance. The cottage is quite private and fully equipped. Self-catering is a welcome relief from looking for restaurants every day. The kitchen is particularly well appointed. That said, the pizza place in Hindas was quite tasty.
There is no TV reception so, we chose to take the optional WiFi. It was reliable and fast enough for basics. Tord is a friendly and helpful man. He is a font of local knowledge and also can advise on many if not all things Swedish. He is well traveled. His own home is a couple houses down the road and he will check in on you daily to make sure all is well.
We would definitely consider staying here again if in the area.
