Some farms offer full board. Accommodation can be booked through local tourist offices. Forest cabins and chalets are available throughout the country, generally set in beautiful surroundings, near lakes, in quiet forest glades or on an island in some remote archipelago. They can generally accommodate up to six people, and cooking utensils, cutlery, blankets and pillows are provided. Visitors will have to supply only sheets and towels.
Log cabins offer a slightly more simple type of accommodation.
Renovated cottages and farm buildings are also available, usually in remote spots. Sweden's 250 chalet villages offer the advantage of amenities such as a grocery, general shops, leisure facilities, restaurants, swimming pools, saunas, launderette, playgrounds, mini-golf, tennis, badminton or volleyball. Some have programmes of special activities such as music, dancing, barbecues, riding, fishing and walking trails. It is often possible to rent boats or bicycles. Family camping holidays are extremely popular in Sweden and there is a tremendous variety of attractive sites.
