General Overview
Log cabin built in 2022, traditional style but with all mod cons, in the Stockholm archipelago (mainland). Paradise for nature lovers, only about 100 meters from the Baltic sea, and with forest behind it. Access to a semi private bathing jetty 200 merers away. Great walking/hiking trails directly from the property. Sea views from all rooms except the guest WC. The cottage is 2 bedrooms; one with a premium double bed and one with a pullout single bed that can be pulled out for a double. In the summer there is also a 10 m2 wood cabin with a queen size bed. Close to nice excursions to the quaint town of Norrtälje, a large nature reserve, a popular seaside hotel with spa and restaurant, and in the summertime easy access to daytrips to islands in the archipelago.
The Space
The cottage is 65 m2, on a 3700 m2 plot, with a lawn, meadow and trees. Apart from the main cottage there is a small wooden cabin for further accomodation. A gravel lane and forest track ate next to the property.

Neighbourhood
Quiet coastal settlement with a mixture of summer houses and year round residents. Lots of unspoilt nature with lovely forest and seaview walks. The nearest village is 2 km away, and has a country store. nearby is a popular hotel/holiday cottages place with restaurant, spa, sauna, out door gym etc.
Getting to my home
The cottage is 1 hour easy driving from Stockholm by car. All except the last 6 km is motorway. About the same distance to Stockholm Arlanda airport. A car is convenient but not necessary, there is a bus stop 2 km away with connections to Norrtälje, and from there both to Stockholm and Arlanda airport.
Nearest airport
Arlanda, about 70 km
Getting Around
Car is again convenient. My car could be part of the exchange for short trips. 2 km to bus stop and country store, on quiet gravel road with sparse traffic

This sim exchange with Cecilia has been planned for 8 months and was more than one dream come true, 1. staying in a log cabin and 2. in the swedish archipelago and 3. bringing our much beloved dog. So the waiting was long, but so worth it. We were overwhelmed with joy when we entered Cecilias summer cabin, it was so cosy - and the view was truly stunning. The cabin is on a small hilltop, and you wake up to a beautiful view of the water(the cabin is in second line to the shore) Neighbors are close enough, so you don’t feel secluded but it is still very private. When people drive or walk by on the road down below, the distance is far enough so that you won’t feel observed. Cecilia gave us many suggestions for fun and interesting trips for the family. We really enjoyed a trip to the small island Arholma. We drove to Simpnäs/Björkö and took a 15 min ferry. But you can take a ferry from Norrtälje, the fare is aprox. 2 hours (with more stops in the archipelago) We visited both Stockholm and Uppsala. Our son had a meetup in Uppsala and our other son enjoyed the museum Gustavianum very much (the university) Communication with Cecilia was easy both before during and after the exchange. Cecilia is very kind and very helpfull. We were welcomed by a sweet local gift and a nice cold bottle of bubbles and cinnamon buns in the freezer. (We had to go for more of these, from the local bakery, they were delicious) Normally we would be exploring every day, we love to see as much as possible, but we felt so at home in the cabin and the area was so beautiful, so we “stayed at home” 2 days and just went for walks with our dog, and a small trip to Marholmen - (very close and it has a small beach - its a nice resort area) This is definitely a perfect location for anyone that loves nature. (And books :) Cecilia has so many books, we even spottet one of her own publication.) We would love to go back one day.
