Where you’ll be

Söderköping V, Östergötlands län, Sweden

You will have your own patio with privacy to sunbathe, and the option to take a dive in the canal, which is only 100m away. There is a barbecue available near the canal and we also have rowing boats or canoes to use.

There is plenty to see in the environment. You can watch the botes glide by on the canal. There are many beautiful hiking trails. The old town of Söderköpping is something to see. Also on a 10min walk you have the chance to see the interesting locks of the Götacanal.

My wife Kathleen and I have lived at Ängsbacken Övre for 40 years. We bought a small cottage with some simple outhouses, and now we have a farm with several fully equipped houses in a lovely nature setting along the picturesque canal Göta kanal.

During your stay

Since we, Jan and Kathleen, are both Kundalini Yoga teachers, there is the opportunity to join our yoga classes for a reduced price. We teach yoga at home in our own yoga studio, or outside near the water in summer time!

If you choose to stay with us, there are some additional things that we can offer. Kathleen is an ayurvedic therapist, so there is the possibility to get an ayurvedic massage. Also we engage in ayurvedic cooking, so if this interests you, we would be happy to share our knowledge and could prepare a meal for you.

We have been living on this lovely piece of land for 37 years now. We strive to be as self-sustainable as possible. In spring and summer we grow a lot of different vegetables and herbs that we use in the kitchen. We prefer our food to be ecological because we like to nourish ourselves in the most natural way. Every other day, Jan bakes his special bread filled with seeds, which we then take to our yoga studio for people to have after the class. We saved six beautiful hens from the bio-industry, that provide us with fresh eggs every morning.
