A genuine Swedish torp (forest cottage) on a very sunny hill | Cabin in Örby
3 Bedroom Cabin in Orby, Örby
A genuine Swedish old-style forest cottage from 1879 (a typical Swedish torp), with seven beds on two floors (three bedrooms). The total living area is about 100 square metres. The house has been preserved and restored in old-fashioned style. It is located on a very sunny hill in the forest, with open spaces 50 metres in all directions, 600 metres to the nearest neighbor and 100% transparency protected.
Here you will not be disturbed by anyone, nature is at your doorstep and with endless walking trails through the forests. There are several forest lakes within walking distance from the house. Most of them are great for swimming, also for small children.
In the spring there are wild daffodils blooming everywhere on the slopes. From May to September you will have full sun 15 hours per day on sunny days. In the autumn there are chanterelles on the driveway and blueberries near the house. The winters can be white from November to March, but also green with only short periods with snow. The area is 175 m above sea level which means that it's normally a couple of degrees colder than in Kinna/Skene, cold enough to make the snow stay a bit longer.
If you like fishing you can buy a fishing card (fiskekort) which allows you to go fishing at some lakes in the area, for example Stora Galtasjön which is one of the closest lakes. This lake is also very beautiful and is great for swimming. Despite all this you will most often be alone here.
Please, note that Torpet Nyhem now has an ordinary water closet. Until December 2019 there was only a compost toilet which caused some negative reviews from guests because of the odours that sometimes came from it. The house now also has a fully equipped kitchen with a refrigerator and a stove with an oven.
There is a lot more to say about this house and environment. We love it ourselves and we spend as much time we can here between the bookings.
Although there are photos of lakes attached to the description there is no lake next to the house. The closest lake is 400 m from the house but not good for swimming, The closest lake for swimming is 1,5 km from the house through the forest or 5 mins by car. It's truly beautiful, typical Swedish lake where you can expect to be alone also on sunny summer days: Stora Galtasjön.
There are several other lakes in the area - all very beautiful and mostly isolated.
If you need a washing machine I have another property 8 mins from this house where you can go to wash your clothes. It's next to a fantastic lake and you can stay there the lake while you are waiting for the machine to do its job. If I am there I will probably offer a free cup of tea with a snack.
