Stinas Hotel Cottage

Stinas cottage was built by Stina and her husband, initially as a summer house. Stina grew up in Sällehägnad, as the farm is truly called, together with her 5 siblings. As an adult, she wanted to return to her beautiful Sällehägnad to spend summers and celebrate Christmas on her childhood farm. Stina lived with her family in Karlskoga, but a part of her heart always remained in Sällehägnad and Småland. In her home in Karlskoga, she decorated a room with items from Småland and Sällehägnad. Stina’s Cottage was renovated in 2016 to achieve the rural charm that it has today.
