The other day, someone asked me “I am moving to Sweden and looking for somewhere in the South, with beautiful countryside, beaches and lots of culture, but also that’s not far from a village or town.” Luckily two different areas popped up in my head – one was Kullaberg – where my parents-in-law live, and a place I covered extensively in this travel guide. And the other was Österlen.
Famous for its light, Österlen has been a popular destination for artist for hundreds of years and the countryside is absolutely beautiful. This pretty cottage, in Löderup is fairly near Sandhammaren beach, known for it’s incredible white sands and clear waters. The quirky interior is testimony to the creative scene you so often find in the area, and yet it also has a serene feel to it thanks to the soft shades not dissimilar from the tones seen in the sand, shells and sea of the nearby beach.
A few weeks ago we had the pleasure of Beppe taking us around his Swedish family home and today I’ll hand over to Snowy (*not his actual name, to be honest, I’m not sure what it is, but he sure is cute) for the tour!
