The surrounding area:
In the village of Åkebo you can feel the serenity and peacefulness. In the area there is a chance to see both roe deer and moose. In the forest there is also excellent blueberry and lingonberry-places. If you are lucky, you will hear the owl hooting over the lake at night. It is possible to rent the cottage in spring, summer, autumn and winter.
Åkebo 6 is located in Stora Hammarsjö area at Lilla Åkebosjön surrounded by forest and pasture in summer grazed by cows.
The lake is great for fishing as there is plenty of bream and if you are lucky, you can catch several on the same night (one of the largest caught weighed 1.2 kg!).
A short distance from our cottage you will find Stora Hammarsjön, where there is a nice family beach. There it is possible to rent both a sauna and hot tub through Hultsfreds tourist information centre.
At Stora Hammarsjön there is also the nature reserve Björnnäset, a real enchanted forest, with many long pathways in the beautiful nature of Småland.
Besides Lilla Åkebosjön and Stora Hammarsjön, there are about 23 other lakes to fish in, and if you want to fish for rainbow trout, there are also 3 lakes for it. Fishing licenses purchased at SFK Krokens website or at Hultsfred tourist information centre and Frendo in Hultsfred .
More information about the conservation area can be found at Hultsfred tourist information centre and SFK Krokens website.
