ForRest is a newly built & designed off-grid cottage with large glass sections that gives you the feeling of being out in the middle of the forest even though you´re indoors with all the conveniences of today. Wintertime there´s a chance to experience the Northern Lights.
It´s your own space in the forest. Use the freedom to roam to get into our wilderness. Watch the wildlife, pick berries/mushrooms, yoga, go for walks or a run. Here you´ll find the peace & quiet that are rare to find to day.

The space
A wise man I knew used to talk about contentment, a feeling that perhaps few people experience daily today. His wise words landed deep within me and in my dream of building a cabin in the woods where people can feel full joy of life and experience our great forests. All to yourself. Bring the person or persons who matter most of all in your life and experience the peace and quiet and wildlife in the Swedish forest or use the peaceful place for yoga, meditation or creative creating. Let the cooking take time and may be the only goal you have for the day. Make food indoors on the wood- or gas stove or over an open fire down by the stream.

Take the opportunity to fish, pick mushrooms and blueberries right outside the house - the forest offers many pleasures and the range varies with the season.

Staying in ForRest is modern "back to basic". You need to heat the house using the wood stove. In winter, if the night has been cold it will be chilly downstairs. Then you light the fire in the wood stove to heat up the house again. In the meantime, I recommend you snuggle up in the sofa under a blanket, drinking coffee or tea, looking for animals and socialize. ;-) Slippers can be good to bring during the cold season.

You have the Swedish wildlife just outside the door and this is you own spot.
No neghbours or trafic, just the sounds of the trees and the small stream running 100 m below the cottage. The accommodation is comfortable and modern technologies have been used to create an environment with the standard you would expect at home even though it is a long way both to the municipal water supply, and the public net of electricity. The water comes from a source deep in the ground and the electricity comes from the sun's rays.

Other things to note
Here you can enjoy your company without worrying about them being busy with their telephones since we are far enough out in the forest to have no or bad access to internet. The road to the house is a road in the forest, made of gravel stone but easy and good enough for a normal car to drive on. I don´t reccomend very low cars on the road.

The WIFI usualy works very well but might be a bit too slow for streaming.
You heat up the house by using the wodd stove, it´s also excellent for cooking during the cold time of the year. During the summer you can´t use the own since it gets too warm inside to heat the wood stove up.

In April or March the frozen ground melts, when that happens the road gets very soft. You never know exactly when that happens but when it does, you might have to walk the last 1,5 km or drive on the road only early mornings when its frozen. If you have a lot of luggage I´ll help you to get it to the house.

January-February are excellent for winter-sports and ice fishing.

In May you´ll get to be a part of the nature fully awakening after the long dark winter, this is my favorite time of the year since everything comes back to life. An absolutely wonderful time to be in the forest.
If you come in June, the whole night is bright. The trees and the ground are bright green and the nature is fully awake and full of life again after the long winter.
In July and August the nights gets a bit darker, the green is deeper and the weather is usually warm.
In July, August and September the forest is full of mushrooms and berries that you are free to pick as much as you´d like.
The leaves fall of the trees in October and the snow usually comes around November/December. In the winter you have the opportunity to see the northern lights and there are only about 6 hours of bright daylight in the middle of December. Here we go all in for Christmas during the whole of December.
