Torpet, "The Cottage", is small but very charming and has just been refurbished.
You find it next to our coach house at the edge of the forest with wild strawberries
and bilberries right on your doorstep.
It has a living room/kitchen with cooker, fridge/freezer and sinkas well as a little
wood-burning stove. The bedroom is very small but has two comfortable beds.
There is also WC and shower.
You find great backroads and lovely woods with lots of berries, mushrooms, wild
animals and interesting flowers. The nearest place to go swimming is in the sea 1,5
km away. It takes you 10 min by car to the nearest golf course, Väddö Golfbana.
Another place to swim is a lovely lake with a great beach suitable for smaller
children and a beach volleyball court. There is a larger supermarket, bank and
postoffice in Älmsta which is 9 km away. The Norrtälje bus stops at the end of our
driveway (No 645). We have a few bicycles and a small rowing boat that you can
borrow for excursions.
