Villas and rooms
Nature Huts
In the middle of nature, right at the forests edge, there two cozy little nature huts. With one side completely glass, you can literally lie in bed, look out over forest, pond and paddocks and maybe see a hare or a deer up close. A bit like camping but in a much more luxurious way.
The cabins are furnished with a double bed in each. There is electricity and elements that heat during the cooler seasons.
Image displayed as two twin beds but will be one double bed. Bathroom located in cottage close by.
The Cottage
The cottage has three bedrooms and a shared living area. It is located up on the hill between the Ekoladan, the sheep pasture, Lindeborg's residential building and the farm's many crops.
One bedroom with a double bed, a second bedroom with two single beds and a third bedroom with a single bed. In the cottage there is a fully equipped kitchen, dining table and two bathrooms with showers. This is the perfect spot to have your own space with the option to feel more social and make friends with your cottage buddies on retreat.
The Barn (Ekoladan)
The Barn or the Ekoladan, has one eco-suite and one double room.
The eco suite is 35 m2 with large glass sections and doors that blur the line between outside and inside. In a stripped-down, modern and natural environment, there is a kitchen from Gaggenau, and a wood stove. Wake up with a view of the lake, fields and vegetable gardens. This option has a double bed and bunk beds so will be used for 3 people who want to share their space with fellow retreaters.
The double room is its own space. This 20 m2 space has a view of the sheep pasture and the orangery and the farm's centuries-old oaks. The room is located on the northern long side of Ekoladan and is furnished with a stripped-down, natural and modern feel.

Amazing yoga classes, breathtaking venue and the best company! Coming back from the retreat has urged me to prioritise daily movement and make time for the little things in life that bring me joy!'
