Private house 70 meters from the sea on car-free Dyrön!

Our house is located 70 meters from the sea. You just wrap yourself in a towel and walk down to the child-friendly beach or to the lovely rocks with a trampoline. 5 minutes' walk away is the sauna where you can enjoy the sea from the sauna window. The island is car-free, with a calm that is unbeatable. Still, there are amenities such as an ICA store, restaurants, mini golf course and kiosk. Around the island, there is a lovely hiking trail and if you are lucky, you will encounter mouflon sheep on the way. The space You are very welcome to Dyrön! We think it's a lovely island you've come to and we hope you'll think so too! Here is some information about the house and the island that may be good to know. Bathing You have, in our opinion, the island's best swimming area a stone's throw from the house. Just follow the road outside towards the sea straight ahead (there is a jetty with a swimming ladder) or take a left down by the rocks and the water where there is another swimming ladder, then a trampoline, a diving board and another swimming ladder. Take the one you feel like! We've seen seals, porpoises and even sharks a bit outside the swimming area, so keep an eye out. A little further to the left is a long swimming jetty and a small child-friendly sandy beach. Another, and very nice, sandy beach called Sandviga, can be found a bit further away on Dyröleden (see map below). Of course, you can try the swimming area in Norra hamnen as well, it is very nice and good! The house The house is 100 m² spread over 2 floors, plus a basement of 50 m². There are 10 beds; upstairs 1 double bed of 140 cm, 1 single bed and 2 thick mattresses on the floor, on the ground floor 1 double bed of 180 cm and 1 single bed, spread over 2 rooms. In the basement there is 1 double bed (2 beds of 90 cm). Both bedrooms upstairs have sea views. One of them has a desk facing the sea and where it is nice to sit and work or study. The living room has 2 sofas, TV and armchairs. The kitchen can accommodate up to a maximum of 10 people around the table and has all the amenities you need in a kitchen. On the ground floor there is 1 bathroom with shower, toilet, washing machine and dryer. Half a staircase down there is 1 guest toilet. The hot water in the faucet quickly gets very hot, so be careful. The house was built in 1957 and we honestly don't think the outside is very charming… but it's all the more cozy inside, we think, and although there is still a lot you can change, renovate and redo, we hope you will like it as much as we do! In addition, the house is surrounded by other very beautiful houses, so it is a pleasure to sit and eat breakfast and look out at the beauty of others. Things to see and do on Dyrön We hope you will have really nice weather when you are here, because then you can really enjoy the proximity to swimming and warm rocks. But if the weather is a little worse, there is still plenty to do. The sauna on Dyrön is very cozy, book a place/subscription at Boka bastu - Dyrön (dyron dot se). Dyröleden is an experience you won't want to miss! Start at Norra hamnen and start with the eastern part of the island, where you can hike through lush areas and on trails with magnificent views. There are also plenty of good places to sit and eat your packed lunch. Then you can continue around the island on the west side, where you get a fantastic view of the open sea and Åstol, here are also good coffee places on the way. If you like to run and have relatively good balance, these are also lovely running laps. But take it easy, especially the western part of the island is very tricky. And it's really exhausting! If you like ball sports, you can rent the tennis court located at the school, a few minutes' walk from the house. We have 3 tennis rackets, but if you are used to tennis players, you will probably find them quite bad, so bring your own. But we think they work to play with! You can also rent the sports hall for badminton, floorball, table tennis and mat curling, book at Boka hallen - Dyrön (dyron dot se). In addition, there is a nice little gym, see Boka gym - Dyrön (dyron dot se). If you want to play mini golf, there is a course near Södra hamnen, where you can also buy an ice cream. Sometimes there are art exhibitions in the rock room near the Södra hamnen. There is plenty more to see and do, check out See & Do - Dyrön (dyron dot se). ICA Less than a 5-minute walk from the house, there is a well-stocked ICA store, Dyröboden. Opening hours vary throughout the year, but with the Ica To Go app, you can shop 24/7. In the summer, the store is usually open 8-20 every day and they also have a small pizza shop with delicious pizzas. Restaurants Dyröns Värdshus is a nice restaurant located right where you get off the ferry at Dyrön Norra, it is well worth a visit! During peak season, you need to book a table in advance. You can find some lighter dishes at Linas brygga in Sydhamnen, where you can buy shrimp sandwiches, shrimp claws, fish n chips, etc. They also have great ice cream. Guest access The island is car-free and the car is parked most easily in Rönnäng where the ferry to the island goes. When booking, we are happy to provide more detailed instructions. The easiest way to get around the island is on foot, it is short distances. Other things to note We rent to people who are 25 years and older (but of course you can bring your own children :)). For younger people, we highly recommend looking for accommodation on dyron.se. As tenants, you will bring your own sheets and bath/shower towels. You also clean up after yourselves, cleaning instructions are in the House Manual that we email after booking. Toilet paper, soap, shower gel, shampoo and hand towels in toilets and kitchens are available in the house.
