The area in southern Dalarna near the border with Västmanland is known for its nature with deep forests and beautiful lakes. Malingsbo Herrgård testifies to the history in the form of railway traditions that started as early as the 17th century. The style that the main building from the early 18th century represents is called Caroline. Here, for example, you can find bikes along Strömsholm's canal, where you can find an accommodation with typical rock type atmosphere. Don't forget to take a look at the unique grain screw!
Around the mansion rise ridges created by deposits from the ice age. There are many fine buildings in the field of application and most notable is the barley screw. The building was used to dry harvested barley. The technology originally from Scotland is based on 228 ventilation windows where the air can flow through. In the summer there is also a mansion café, art exhibitions and flea market to visit.
Here you can book fully equipped cottages for self-catering or Handlarens villa with room for eleven people, a charming two-storey villa from the middle of the 18th century with individually furnished rooms that share three shower rooms with WC in the corridor. On the ground floor are the dining room and the lounge. You also get access to the garden with several seating areas, framed by a lilac arbor that smells wonderful in the spring.
The garden house has two bedrooms, a bathroom with shower and the kitchen has a microwave. Breakfast, towels and bed linen are provided at an additional cost.
There will be the possibility of overnight in more houses as well. Malingsbo Herrgård has slept a Sleeping Beauty sleep for 120 years and stood empty since the mill owner moved out in 1891. Now, gentle renovation is underway with great love for our common cultural heritage.
