Welcome to rent our summer paradise in Valleviken on northeastern Gotland! A traditional Gotland-style wooden house, but with a modern interior. The house has a cozy combined kitchen and living room with an open plan to the ridge. There is a sofa, TV with basic channels and Chromecast, WiFi with fiber, a wood-burning stove, a large dining table with four chairs, but with room for more. The kitchen is equipped with a stove, microwave, toaster, kettle and coffee maker. No dishwasher. There are two bedrooms on the bottom floor, one with an 80 cm bed, the other with a 120 cm bed. The bathroom is equipped with a toilet, shower and washing machine. On the plot there is also a cozy guest cottage with a bunk bed with 90 cm wide beds.
In the entry there are stairs to the loft, where there are two 90 cm beds, which can be pushed together to make a double bed. A high chair and travel cot for a baby are available to borrow. From the living room you can access the large sun-bathed terrace with garden furniture and outdoor lounge chairs. There is a barbecue that you are welcome to use and there is a trampoline on the lawn. The house also has a workshop/studio that will not be included, where we store our private things.
The house is located in the middle of Valleviken but is still secluded, at the end of a cul-de-sac. There are neighbors on three sides and the patio is in a sunny, sheltered position at the back of the house, in an almost unobstructed location. Through the pine trees to the west you can glimpse Valleviken's limestone quarry with turquoise water. Around the limestone quarry there is a forest with nice paths for walking and running. Fardume träsk, a lake rich in birds, is just a short walk away.
The house is about 700 meters from Valleviken harbor, which has a small shallow beach for children, and a pier at the end of the harbor which is great for swimming. There is a lovely restaurant in the harbor, Sjökrogen, for lunches and dinners, or for a drink on the quayside.
Within a mile there are many excursion destinations, such as Furillen with nice beaches and an old lime mill environment with a trendy hotel, Lergrav with a rauk field and a smoked fish specialty café, the Husken nature reserve, Rute bakery, Smöjen with a nice beach and several limestone quarries to swim in, Kyllaj with a rauk field and a beach, St. Olofsholm with limestone cliffs and a sandy beach, Hide with a shallow sandy beach.
A little further away, on the west side, is Stenkusten, a beautiful stretch of coast with, among other things, the Bläse lime mill museum and the Blue Lagoon in Ar. 14 km away is Fårösund, where the ferry takes you to Fårö.
The closest grocery stores are in Lärbro (13 km), Fårösund (14 km) and in Slite (17 km).
