About the host
Hosted by Diana
My husband (Jonas) and I are a Swedish/Canadian couple that love traveling and spending time with our kids. We had a vision to build a rental unit in our old barn, to have available for family and friends, as well as rent out to other families looking for a cozy "home away from home" on their travels.
Why they chose this property
Jonas' mother was a teacher at Vassbo when it was a plant school, so he has always had a soft spot for the area. I fell in love with it when I moved here from Canada and we were lucky enough to buy two properties; our home and the neighbor property where the rental now is. To be only 10 minutes from both Falun and Borlänge with all your conveniences, but still be able to reside in the countryside by a lake, is just paradise to us.
What makes this property unique
Since Vassbo used to be an old tree nursery, there is a wide variety of plant life in the near vicinity, surrounded by forests with direct access to a lake, located between two cities, makes this place the perfect retreat for a mini vacation. No need to pack bedding, linens, or towels, most essentials are all provided with your stay. Just come, relax and enjoy!
