Nature house in Markaryd
Southern Sweden, Sweden
- 6 persons
- 3 bedrooms
- Pets allowed
This nature house was originally a so-called “soldier’s cottage” and was built in the early 1900s. It was a small home for a soldier and his family. The original structure consists of the current living room and bedroom downstairs, the staircase, and the area where the wood stove is located in the current kitchen-living room. The living room is furnished with, among other things, two two-seater sofas and a bookcase containing Swedish, Scandinavian, and Dutch literature as well as detective novels. There is one bedroom downstairs and two upstairs. The upstairs bedrooms are appealing to children because of their cozy atmosphere but are less accessible for people with disabilities and for tall people. The large kitchen-dining area features—in addition to the dining table and chairs—an original Swedish kitchen bench and the wood stove. The original natural-stone staircase is difficult to access for people with limited mobility. The bathroom is small and simple. There is no Wi-Fi. The wooden deck is located behind the house, ensuring complete privacy.

It's so pretty and lovingly decorated that you feel right at home.
Es ist so hübsch und liebevoll eingerichtet, so dass man sich direkt zuhause fühlt.
The beautiful garden borders a small wooded area, and when you sit by the fire pit in the evening, you can hear crickets chirping and sounds coming from the woods. Right nearby is a small river with a dock and a rowboat.
Der schöne Garten grenzt an ein Wäldchen und wenn man abends an der Feuerstelle sitzt, hört man Grillenzirpen und Geräusche aus dem Wald. Ganz neh ist ein kleiner Fluss mit Steg und Ruderboot.

Beautiful house where you actually feel at home right away. Everything is there, you lack nothing. Plenty to do in the area. With fire pits in the garden marshmallows are so made. We enjoyed and slept great. Can recommend the house to anyone.
Prachtig huis waar je je eigenlijk meteen thuis voelt. Alles is er, het ontbreekt je aan niks. Genoeg te doen in de omgeving. Met vuurplaatsen in de tuin zijn marshmallows zo gemaakt. Wij hebben genoten en heerlijk geslapen. Kan het huis aan iedereen aanbevelen.
Beautiful surroundings, bis as a backyard what more could you want
Prachtige omgeving, bis als achtertuin wat wil je nog meer

We were 2 people; in our opinion, the cottage is not really suitable for families because of the dangerous stairs, and the height upstairs (passages 1m20?).
Wij waren met 2 personen; het huisje is naar onze mening niet echt geschikt voor gezinnen vanwege de gevaarlijke trap, en de hoogte boven (doorgangen 1m20?)
Well cared for cottage. Extensive and spacious kitchen, and also nice living room to sit. Bedroom downstairs is fine. Nice terrace with garden chairs and table. Disadvantages we found that you can hear the traffic on the road very well on the terrace, and it is a fairly busy road. The height of the doors and ceilings downstairs are low. Fortunately, the bed is long enough. Upstairs we did not need to be, but it was very low there.
Goed verzorgd huisje. Uitgebreide en ruime keuken, en ook fijne woonkamer om te zitten. Slaapkamer beneden is prima. Mooi terras met tuinstoelen en tafel.
Nadelen vonden wij dat je het verkeer op de weg heel goed hoort op het terras, en het is een vrij drukke weg.
De hoogte van de deuren en plafonds beneden zijn laag. Gelukkig is het bed lang genoeg. Boven hoefden wij niet te zijn, maar daar was het heel erg laag.This text is automatically translated.
