Henån - House

Welcome to this charming and older house in Brattås on Orust – a holiday home with a simpler standard but with lots of character. The house is 85 m² and can accommodate up to 8 people divided into three bedrooms and a walk-through room with bunk beds and an extra bed. There are a total of eight sleeping places here: one bedroom with a double bed (160×200), one with a bed 90×200 and one 80×200, and one with a bed 90×200.

The house is simply but functionally equipped, with preserved charm from the past. The kitchen has a stove, oven, refrigerator and coffee maker, and in the living room there is plenty of space for shared moments. The bathroom in the basement has a bathtub and the house is equipped with an urine-diverting toilet. During the summer you need to be economical with your water consumption as the well can be sensitive.

Outside, a large plot of 5000 m² awaits you with a garden, furniture and barbecue. The natural environment with forests and meadows all around creates a peaceful holiday feeling, and just 300 meters away is the sea with a sandy beach and swimming opportunities. Two kayaks are included in the rent, making it easy to explore the archipelago from the water.

Dogs are welcome (up to two), so even the four-legged members of the family can come along on vacation.
