Annika och Kjell. We host this countryhouse for you.
Our cottage, situated in the countryside, is from the eighteenth century and the atmosphere is cosy and calm. We have a cross-over taste when it comes to decorating our home. A french kitchen with furniture from Bali, in other rooms tapestry from England mixt with swedish design
My name is Annika Eisen, married to Kjell Brunåker. I am a writer and Kjell, previous top salesman, spend his days taking care of our property here in Olsbacka. We love outdoor activities and of course to travel.
It´s very much in the countryside but still easy to reach the city, 10 minutes by car. If you like to take a stroll in the forest, upp on mountains and around small lakes this is the place. In the summer you can borrow bicycles here and explore the area we have some really nice tours to suggest. You reach a large number of hiking and cykling tracks from here just around the cottage. You are in walking distance to two lakes with nice bathing opportunities. In winter you have skiing and skating nearby. This is an area with signs from old culture and we'll be happy to point them out for you. Calm and relaxation is something our customers often says that they find here. After a day with outdoor activity you can enjoy a nice time in your private sauna and then sit down for a cool-off at your private terrace.
