Flat on Köpstadsö, Sweden
Our home is part of a villa, that we share with our children’s grandparents (we have our own, separate part. of the house).
In the first floor, there is the hallway, washroom and a spare bedroom.
On the second floor there is an open plan arrangement between the lounge, dining room and kitchen.
There are 2 bed rooms on the second floor, 2 double, and a small guestroom with 120 cm wide bed. One bathroom (only shower, no bathtub).
We have a Wii and Xbox consoles with multiple games, as well as Netflix available.
Good sized garden with multiple seating areas.
We have our own private pier and bathing platform as the garden is situated by the water line.
There is also a small public beach 20 meters from one end of the garden that is quiet and suitable for smaller children, but also provides bathing platform.
On the second floor, there is a balcony, with lovely views over the ocean and archipelago.
From the dining table area there are lovely views over the sea, archipelago as well as over a small yacht harbour.
Approx. 1 minute walk from our house is tennis court, and there is also a small playground, 5 min walk from the house.
In the summer the island is a livelier place, with visiting boats, and summer guests. But as our garden is quite spacious and have a variety of places to be, you can always find quiet areas.
On our balcony we have afternoon and evening sun, and it is a wonderful place to enjoy the sunset.
Ferries to the mainland go regularly, usually every hour, and the trip takes about 15 minutes.
From the ferry harbour, it takes approx. 25 -35 minutes to the city centre of Gothenburg, with the tram. And approx 15-25 minutes by car. Mind you, Gotheburg is currently undergoing major construction work, all throu out the city center (-> 2025). Avoiding using car into the city center is recommended.
There are no cars on the island, and no need for one as our island is a small one. We have our car by the ferry harbour on the mainland.
If you zoom in on the Google map, and turn on satellite, you will se our house and where it is situated on the island.
It is optional to watch our cat Åke. He tends to be mainly downstairs when there are strangers to him, in the house.

The city of Gothenburg was founded in 1621 by King Adolph of Sweden. The river on which the city sits is the Gota River. Gota Borg is the fort on the Gota River, built to protect the port. The name Gothenburg has traditionally been used for the city. Depending on the circumstances the city was referred to as Gothenburg or Goteborg.
Gothenburg's Botanical Gardens are considered to be among the most important botanical gardens in Europe. This park is home to over 12,000 plant species.
The Archipelago of Southern Gothenburg has several beautiful islands nice for bathing and excursions. One of which is Köpstadö , (please note that the information on Köpstadsö on Gotheburg.com is very limited, and somewhat incorrect)
Gothenburg is the birthplace of football in Sweden as the first football match was played there in 1892.
Gothenburg is also well known as a city, which has a rich music life and a variety of many fish dishes found in good restaurants of all kinds. There are several clubs with a wide array of music styles. In the district of Haga you may also find a lot of nice cafés.

This was a fabulous exchange to an island in the Gothenburg archipelago that has no hotels or shops! sitting watching the ferries and the boats sail past was just a delight. The house was fabulous. Lotta's family were nearby in case of any issues (there were none). Would happily go again!

We are Lotta, Martin, Sara age 27 and Emma age 24 (not living at home)
Our family consists, apart of us humans, of our cat Åke.
We will leave him at home, but can easily have Åke taken care of by the grandparents, downstairs. Åke is an outdoor cat, but requires feeding, if you'd like to care for him.
The grandparents have a dog (Beagle). So there are animals present in the house.
