Hem till Gården

Funkar för att bo under kort vistelse.

I spent a the best part of a week at Hem till Garden with my son and a friend of his during a tennis tournament in the Bellevue Indoor Sports Complex in early January. We were really impressed. The apartment was very nicely decorated and ideal for our purposes. Tina, the owner, and her son were very hospitable and extremely helpful. I would highly recommend Hem Till Garden.

On our tour through Sweden we had also plannend a stop in Västerås. We stumbled across Hem till Gården and found the website promising. We were not disappointed. Hem till Gården (At home on the farm) is just what it promises: an old swedish farm on the outskirts of Vesterås. We could hardly believe the pictures on their website but they are true indeed: it is as pictoresque and originall old as it is advertised. We stayed in the Lillstugan (small cottage), presumably the farm helper's cottage dating from the early 1800s. The inside was beautifully and tastefully renovated and looked like new. We felt home immediately and had a feeling of being in a special place during our entire stay. The cottage was large enough for us and our 7 months old daughter and featured everything we needed from fridge to cooker, cutlery, a Weber Barbecue, etc. Tina, the owner of the property is awesome, always helpful and seems to be the driving force behind it. The property is located near a larger street and well-connected to everything, the city is 5 min away by car and there's lots of shopping possibilities within easy reach. Absolutely recommended place, especially if you are looking for a more cottage rental type of accommodation rather than a hotel. Unique Swedish experience.
