Step into a piece of Swedish history in this beautifully converted workshop from the early 1900s. The guest house offers a perfect blend of historic charm and modern comfort, featuring geothermal floor heating and fast Wi-Fi while maintaining its authentic character.
The 30m² space is thoughtfully designed with a cosy sleeping loft overlooking the garden, a ground-floor bedroom, and a well-equipped kitchenette. The bathroom showcases creative upcycling with its distinctive metal-wall shower, while the dining area doubles as a comfortable workspace.
Your private garden area provides a peaceful retreat, with views from every window bringing the outside in. The shared laundry facilities in the main house and access to the lower garden add convenience to your stay.
The location offers endless opportunities for outdoor activities. Take a refreshing dip in the nearby quarry and enjoy a sauna afterwards. Explore numerous hiking trails, or visit the local lakes. The community art centre and historic mining sites provide fascinating glimpses into the area's cultural heritage.
This guest house shares the property with the neighbouring Swedish Quarry House. The space is private, but you may see us, or other guests, in the garden and/or driveway.

I'm a software professional balancing life between Copenhagen and our Swedish village with my partner Martin. Over the past five years, we've lovingly restored this quarry master's house. With a background of living across North America, I now spend my time here gardening, renovating, and enjoying swims in the quarry.

A magical, very special place! Between works of art at the Gylsboda quarry, where you can also enjoy excellent swimming, and the picturesque Swedish countryside, Andrew & Martin have created an oasis in old, historic houses where industrial design meets vintage style. There are always lots of people from all over the world in the lovingly renovated houses, but you still have plenty of privacy. Our dogs love Boots the cat, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay!
