Tips from the Community
A church for rest and recharge. Swedish churches are brilliant. A place that offers all the amenities for cyclists. Thanks to the Swedish churches goes out here.

This is a huge tourist campsite. For campers, however, there is a completely separate area with its own sanitary building and communal kitchen outside the large motorhome/caravan area. This means that you still have a quiet and pleasant stay. Adjacent to the tent area is the local church, which also runs the campsite. In summer, coffee and cake are sold here at reasonable prices. There is also a church service every day; when the weather is nice, it is on the rock directly adjacent to the tent area. The tent area has its own sanitary building and a communal kitchen with an oven, microwave and kettle. Some kitchen utensils are also gone; but the selection seems a bit random. This is one of very few large campsites that I liked. I even treated myself to a day off here. There is a supermarket and a snack bar in the village.

Cute little café with homemade honey and lots of bee accessories. The café is open Thursday to Sunday and serves delicious cakes, and of course almost everything with honey in keeping with the bee theme.
