An oasis by the Tidan river

Årås Säteri & Trädgårdar (Årås Manor House & Gardens) is an oasis beautifully situated next to the Tidan in West Sweden. The rooms are nicely furnished, with comfortable beds and the outside surroundings ideal for walks, play golf or go skiing.

Picturesque hostel

Årås Kvarn was built around 1930. The two buildings that are now used as a hostel - Årås Manor House & Gardens - were occupied by the miller and a mechanic when the mill was in operation. The hostel now has eight picturesque rooms, each with a self-catering kitchen and a lounge. Drängstugan next door, the old lodgings for the farmhands, has another four double rooms. There is a BBQ shelter by the river that can be used by guests. Challenge friends and family to a game of boules during the warm summer days on one of the two quality pitches.

Historic adventures

There is a lot to do around Årås Kvarn, especially for those who have an interest in history. Explore the many ancient monuments and church ruins in the surrounding countryside. Take the opportunity of visiting Ekehagens Forntidsby - it makes a great family excursion.

Nature trails

If you enjoy the great outdoors, a walk along the scenic Wilderness Trail is recommended. It starts and ends at Årås Kvarn. You can also rent a bike and go on a longer bike ride in the area where the award-winning Änglagård films were made. The downhill skiing centre in Knaggebo or Ski Bike Hike will give you a whole bundle of fun in the winter.
