What do you need right now?
01 · Before you arrive
A little planning. More time together.
Arrange the practical things before your stay — who sleeps where, anything extra you would like, and your arrival time.
14 guests, room to settle in.
The main house sleeps 12: four double bedrooms and a four-person bunk room. For bookings of 13–14 guests, the boathouse is included automatically, adding a double bed for two in the sleeping loft, with a kitchenette and shower room with toilet below. Smaller groups can add it separately. The boathouse is also usable in winter, but its water supply is switched off; please use the main house kitchen and bathrooms then.

02 · Make the most of your stay
Four things to make time for.
Our favourite ways to spend a stay at The Villa — a little warmth, a little adventure and a long evening outside.
01 · Warm up & unwind
Sauna & jacuzzi
Make an evening of it: enjoy the sauna, take a break outside and settle into the warm jacuzzi.
Sauna is included year-round. Jacuzzi is included May–October; a winter jacuzzi is an optional extra.
Please shower before every dip, including after the sauna. Wash off sunscreen, creams and body oils before entering the jacuzzi to help keep the water clean.
On each day you use the jacuzzi, add chlorine after use according to the instructions and dosage provided on site.

02 · Out on Åsunden
A boat trip & fishing
Head out together, explore the lake and bring a fishing rod if you fancy trying your luck.
Two motorboats and one canoe are included May–October. Boats are unavailable November–April. Wear life jackets and follow the boating instructions on site.
Buy the correct fishing permit before fishing and check the fishing area and rules.

03 · Pack something good
Walk to the picnic spot
Pack lunch, a blanket and a flask of coffee, then head out for a walk to the picnic spot. Leave time to sit, eat and enjoy the surroundings.
The walk starts at the house and takes around 30 minutes uphill. Wear good shoes, pack water and take your rubbish home.
Picnic inspiration →Open the Vegby picnic route ↗
04 · Stay out a little longer
Tripod BBQ & campfire bread
Cook dinner over the open fire with the tripod grill, then wrap bread dough around sticks and bake it slowly over the embers.
Use the designated fire area, check current fire restrictions and never leave the fire unattended. Put it out completely afterwards.

04 · Before you leave
Checkout instructions

- Leave the house tidy and take your belongings.
Put furniture and household items back where you found them and sign out of your streaming accounts.
- Strip the used beds.
We’re a small family-run team, and your help makes a real difference to Inga, who looks after our houses. Please remove used sheets, duvet covers and pillowcases, and leave the used bed linen provided by us together by the entrance. Leave duvets, pillows and mattress protectors on the beds, and take any linen you brought yourself home. Thank you for helping us care for the house.
- Clean the kitchen and start the dishwasher.
Wash pots and pans, wipe the worktops and remove leftover food. Load used dishes, add a dishwasher tablet and start the programme before leaving.
- Take all rubbish to the sorting bins outside.
Separate glass, metal, cardboard and plastic from general waste and put each material in its labelled bin. Do not leave mixed bags beside the bins.
- Moor the boats and refill the fuel can.
If you used a motorboat, leave it in the water with its motor attached and tie it securely at its designated mooring. Do not pull it out or remove the motor. Refill the supplied fuel can with the fuel specified on site.
05 · Anything else?
Good to know.
Can we drink the tap water?

Bring your own shower gel or body soap, food, drinks and any additional toilet paper you may need.
What should we do if the power goes out?
First look at the electrical panel in the entrance cloakroom to see whether a breaker has tripped. Do not remove covers or touch wiring. If everything is switched on, or you are unsure, contact us for help.
For reference, the main-fuse cabinet is the white box on the electricity pole behind the boathouse, by the driveway. Spare fuses are available for maintenance. Please leave any main-fuse replacement to the host or a qualified electrician.
Is the house just for our group?
Yes. The main house and its outdoor areas are reserved for your group. The main house sleeps 12; the boathouse is included automatically for bookings of 13–14 guests and can be added separately for smaller groups.
