Neighborhood

Our guest house is located on Apollovägen in Hörestadhult, a quiet and safe residential area with about 15 houses along a quiet street. Here you live in a natural environment, but still with comfortable proximity to Vimmerby centre which is only 4 km away - 5 minutes by car or 15 minutes by bike. The area is surrounded by beautiful Småland nature with direct proximity to forest, lake and hiking trails. Lake Borstingen is just a few hundred metres from the accommodation and offers wonderful swimming opportunities at a municipal bathing area with beach and jetty. The lake is a natural spring lake, which makes it both clear and pleasant to swim in during the summer months. For those interested in nature, the forest is just a few steps away. Here you can pick mushrooms and berries in season or just enjoy long walks and winding paths in beautiful surroundings. It is perfect for those who seek peace, greenery and nature experiences, without being far from the city's offerings and activities.

Guest Access

The entire guest house with its wooden terrace is included in the accommodation. In the garden there is a trampoline and climbing frame and it is free to use and play in as well.

We had such an incredible stay at Rikard's place! The location was absolutely fantastic, putting us right where we needed to be to explore all the things to do in Vimmerby. Besides the amazing house, our daughter absolutely loved the beautiful garden and the playground, which was a huge bonus for us. We also really enjoyed the short walk to the lake, which was a super beautiful spot for a swim. The hosts were incredibly responsive and helpful, making sure our stay was perfect from start to finish. The car charger was a fantastic and thoughtful add-on that we were so grateful for.
