Modern, comfortable house in Stockholm, Sweden
Come visit beautiful Stockholm - city on water. If you stay in our house you'll have easy access to both city and nature adventures by subway, car and bike.
Our home is a semi-detached house, 150 sqm big. It is a two-storey house, with 4 "half-floors" and has 4 separate bedrooms with a total of 6 beds. Two of the rooms are childrens' rooms with toys and kids' stuff. If you enjoy cooking, you'll find all you need in our fully equipped kitchen (refurbished 2010). There is also a barbecue outside on our large wooden terrace. There are 2 bathrooms, one with a washing machine and tumble dryer.
The tube is less than ten minutes walk from the house and reaches the city centre in 15 minutes. Our car, which is included in the exchange, is a Volvo station wagon (of course... ;). It has two booster seats for children which are easy to remove if not needed. We also have 2 adult bicycles with children seats and 2 bikes for children.
Stockholm has many museums, attractions and sites that will entertain the whole family. If you get tired of the city vibe, catch a ferry and go island-hopping in the stunning Stockholm archipelago. Go seal-spotting, rent a kayak or just hike through unspoiled nature. You can easily spend your day and still be back on time for a nice barbecue on the backyard terrace. When you get tired of cooking there are many great restaurants. A personal favourite is local, family friendly 'Gamla Enskede matbod'. If you go by bike, you can even try their tasty mojito. If you have small children there are many local playgrounds nearby, some with farm animals and pools for toddlers.
