The forest is a great place to unwind. The smells, the colors, the silence. Add a setting inspired by John Bauer's evocative paintings, a meandering water lily-lined canal and an inn that cooks with locally sourced ingredients. Bauergårdens Gästgiveri & Konferens in lilla Bunn is the place for you who want bike-friendly accommodation where you can relax and enjoy really good cycling. 

Perhaps you take a walk on mossy paths in the enchanted forest before sitting down to the table and enjoying well-prepared food. Or glide along the mirror-like surface of the water in a kayak before it's time for a sauna. Of course, there is also great cycling in Bauergården's surroundings. In the area there are many cycle paths to choose from and you can also cycle in winter when the snow has fallen. There are bike washes and technical courses for those who are interested.

The hotel has a total of 25 rooms in various price ranges at Bauergården: From exclusive deluxe rooms in the main building—complete with a minibar and a bathrobe in the room—to standard rooms in the charming annex, where dogs are also welcome. The rooms aren’t very large, but each one has its own unique charm. Breakfast is always included in the price. There are also cottages available for rent. The Smålandsstugan cottage sleeps six and features a kitchenette and a bathroom with a toilet and shower, while the Alphyddan cottage has two single beds, and guests use the toilet and shower in the service building next door. Breakfast is always included in the price—both at the hotel and when you rent a cottage.
