What makes Näsets Marcusgård one of Sweden’s most unique nature retreats?

Anyone travelling through Sweden will encounter forests, lakes and red wooden cottages. Nature is everywhere. Yet some places invite people to stay a little longer. Näsets Marcusgård is located in Furudal, in the heart of Dalarna, surrounded by forests, lakes and walking trails. Just a few hours north of Stockholm, it feels far removed from the noise and pace of everyday life without being difficult to reach. Scattered among the trees are several thoughtfully designed stays, each with its own […]

Shooting stars and a silver sun: August 2026

If you are planning to visit us in 2026, try to aim for the second week of August. We are looking at a rare “double bill” in the sky that summer, and the forest here in Furudal is exactly where you want to be when it happens. On August 12th, we get a significant solar eclipse in the evening. Because the sun will be low over the trees, the light in the forest will turn into that strange, silvery glow […]

Why hushpitality feels at home in the forests of Dalarna, Sweden

In recent years, travellers have started looking for something different when planning a stay in nature in Sweden. Last year, many discovered the idea of the coolcation: travelling north to escape extreme summer heat. This year, another quieter movement is taking shape — something called hushpitality. Hushpitality describes a quieter form of hospitality where rest, fewer decisions and time close to nature become part of the stay itself. Instead of adding more activities, it creates space for presence, recovery and […]

Let the forest decide

We introduced our Forest Signature Experiences in early December. Winter had not arrived yet. There was no snow to depend on, no finished winter scene. The forest was dark and quiet, still open. We worked with what was there. Living at Näsets Marcusgård teaches you this quickly. Seasons do not adjust to plans. You adjust to them. Just before the end of the year, winter came. Snow changed the forest. Movement slowed. The landscape closed itself. Not long after, storm […]

Stronger together: the people who make this place special!

In 2014, we took a leap of faith. We moved our family from the Netherlands to Dalarna, driven by the story of this farm and the untamed beauty of the nature surrounding Näsets Marcusgård. From the very beginning, our dream was to build something small and personal, and to truly take time for our guests—a philosophy that our guests tell us is remarkable in today’s fast-paced world. A huge part of that philosophy is our driving force: to help keep […]
