General overview

The place is a quiet lovely spot next to forest at a place that was once a farm and now contains five separate housholds. I have semi off grid small wooden house/cottage that I've designed myself. It has kitchen, living room and a tiny bedroom + a separate guestroom. I have a big vege garden and I'm self sufficient on veges and herbs. Lots of garden space and walks in the neighborhood and in the forest.

The space

I offer the Hospitality option in my new guest room, only while I'm at home, usually around May - September. We would be sharing the kitchen and toilet which is an indoor separating compost toilet. Hot shower only outdoors by connecting the shower hose to the kitchen tap. The guest room is the yellow room on the photos! .

Guest access

The guest room entry is through the open garage/store room. It's ground floor, but there's stairs to enter the house and a couple of steps different levels inside the house as well.

Notes

There are a few practical details that you need to get into when staying here, like how to separate waste, handle the compost toilet and outdoor shower.

Neighbourhood

We're right at the edge of the forest, good for walks. Medieval church 2 km. Wild-park with a stream and picnic spots 3 km. Nearest grocery shops 12 km. Nearest coastal beach 25 km. Gotland has beautiful coast lines everywhere. Lots of historical landmarks. End of June - mid August tourist season is very busy!

Getting to my home

Flight to Visby from Stockholm is 35 min. Ferry a bit over 3 hours. There are buses around the island but not everywhere and you can basically only change bus line in Visby. The island is quite flat so bicycling is an option.

I live on Gotland in a country place which was once a farm, and now has five separate households. I have a vege garden and I'm self sufficient on veges and herbs. I've travelled a lot. Now retired and spend winters in Portugal.
