About Häljeboda and Borgsjön

The cabins are in Häljeboda, a village in the municipality of Eda in western Värmland, Sweden, close to the Norwegian border. Forest spreads out all around, and below the lawn lies Borgsjön - part of the Bortan-Häljeboda fishing conservation area. A mown grass path leads down through the birches to your own jetty, about 50 metres from the houses. Renting a cabin in Värmland comes down to exactly this for many people: a self-catering holiday home, the lake below and no neighbours in sight. Charlottenberg, with its shopping and border trade, is about 16 km away, roughly a 20 minute drive.

Nature all year round in Värmland

Summer brings swimming from the jetty, trips out onto Borgsjön and long light evenings. In autumn the forest turns colour and you can pick mushrooms and berries. Winter is snow-covered and still, while the wood-burning stove keeps the cabin warm. In spring the light returns and the birdlife wakes.

Fishing

Good fishing on the doorstep.

The cabins sit by Borgsjön in the Bortan-Häljeboda fishing conservation area, with 48 fishable waters and plenty of pike, perch and trout.
