10 days : with your own transport or rental car
Purpose of this trip : The most expensive hotel is often not 'the best' and driving many kilometers does not always mean that you will actually see much. With our castle tour in southern Sweden you will not stay in a room of a large hotel chain with shareholders, but you will be the guest of people with an enormous passion. People with a passion for the location, for the history and the culture. Passion that results in atmosphere, conviviality and experience. Passion that you will feel as a guest. Proud locations with proud people who together leave a lasting impression on you. Not only a holiday for your body but also a holiday for your soul.
Is a castle trip extra expensive?
No ! But let's be frank about it: In general, dining in a restaurant in Sweden is never cheap. Alcoholic drinks are also usually higher in price than in the Netherlands, for example. Usually there is an alternative to 'eat out' within a reasonable distance.
At the first castle location we offer you a 4-course menu included with your first overnight stay. You also enjoy the freedom to decide everything yourself on the spot. Also take advantage of the extra options that each location has to offer. Think of sauna, massage, relaxation days, rental, etc. Pay attention to the prices locally and compare them if necessary. with local offerings nearby.

If you like to go into the city, Sweden's second capital, Gothenburg , is a beautiful place to stay and explore. From trendy to classic . Gothenburg has it all. Shopping, Culture and Culinary.
Vintage shopping in Sweden
Traditionally, Sweden has had the principle of re-use of consumer goods. The so-called second-hand is called Loppis in Sweden. The loppa, the Swedish word for flea. We know it in the Netherlands as a flea market.
Trendy throughout Scandinavia and 'reinvented' in the form of Retro Shopping , Vintage Shopping or Swedish återbruk (reuse).
Gothenburg has a wide range of well-stocked and high-quality vintage stores.
Day program
Day 1 - from home to Travemünde (D).
You travel to Travemünde (D) on your own with your own car. Since we are mainly traveling through Germany today, it would not be out of place to quote a German saying: Die Reise ist das Ziel. In other words: Your holiday starts as soon as you walk out the front door. Enjoy every moment on the road. When enjoying your trip, don't forget that you have to check in at the port one hour before the ferry departs in Travemünde. Make sure you arrive well before 9:00 PM. You sleep on the ship in a cabin with a view of the sea, the so-called outside cabin. The next morning between 6 and 7 the ship arrives in Malmö, Sweden.
Day 2. Malmö / Hällsnäs Manor / 285 KM
The first castle of this trip is Hällsnäs Manor House from 1906. Located on Lake Landvetter, you can enjoy peace and quiet, jogging**, a gourmet package with 18 courses** or a whiskey tasting** in the special Makmyra Whiskey warehouse & 'school of whisky'.
(**Not included). Take your time to make a few stops along the way. Because you are driving on the E6 highway, you will be making pretty good progress. Only 36KM. Landskrona Slott is located above Malmö. In good weather you have a view over the Öresund to Denmark. Maybe your first Swedish breakfast with kanelbulle and coffee in Landskrona?! Helsingborg is also beautiful, but remember that it is a somewhat larger city. A little further north lies Halmstad . Or how about a beach walk on Mellby beach? The cozy Falkenberg is a little further away. The E6 makes it all very accessible. It is not far to your destination in Västra Götaland, the province in which Gothenburg is located. After arrival you can enjoy a luxurious 4-course dinner (included, excluding drinks).
Day 3. Hällsnäs - Gothenburg / 50 KM
Your day starts with a delicious Swedish breakfast (included). Then you decide how you will spend the day. If you stay at Hällsnäs Manor and take advantage of one of the wonderful options available, you can also visit the Delsjö område Naturreservat nature reserve. in combination with a visit to Gunnebo Slott (with restaurant) or will you find entertainment in Gothenburg where you can also go for a fun day of shopping and wine & dining ?!

Day 4. Hällnäs - Tofta / 60 KM
After your luxurious breakfast (included), it's time to take a short drive. After only 60KM you arrive at your second castle: Tofta Herrgård. Beautifully situated on the archipelago, in the Tofta Nature Reserve and surrounded by the Lycke Golf Club. Because you don't have to drive far, you have a lot of time to explore the area immediately. The Skärgården is right at your feet and it is only a 17KM drive to cross and reach the offshore islands via bridge connections.
Tip: VERY EXCLUSIVE.
Extra night In the Skärg ården, on a deserted island with a lighthouse. We will take you there with the helicopter and we will pick you up with a RIB.
Day 5. Tofta Herrgård
After a delicious Swedish breakfast (included), you decide how you will spend the day. Endless options . The small harbors with their cosiness, the coast, the nature reserve ...
Day 6. Tofta - Kronovalls Slott / 365 KM
Our advice is to start the day early. After breakfast at the hotel (included) you will drive south-east towards Kronovalls Slott . Sweden wouldn't be Sweden if there wasn't a lot to see along the way. We would like to warn you now, there is a good chance you will encounter elk along the way. Always drive with at least one eye on the side of the road.
On the way you could make a stop in Skeppshult . There is a unique manufacturer there. Skeppshult's cast iron pans and pots are world famous. You will definitely find a great deal in the outlet. Alternatively, with a small detour, you could also visit a moose park in Skåne. Visit the Kronovalls Slott and dine in the excellent Castle Restaurant (not included) where you can enjoy 4- or 5-course menus, if desired. with wine package. You will also stay for two nights incl. breakfast in the beautiful Kronovalls Slott . Kronovalls Slott in a Vinslott. Ask about the wine packages! (Not included).

Rounded off with excellent wines and desserts, you will enjoy yourself here.
Day 8. Kronovall - Malmö / 80 KM
After the delicious Castle Breakfast you leave Kronovalls Slott and drive to Malmö. Malmö is a beautiful small city. Enjoy a delicious drink here, for example at ' lilla torget ', the small market with its cozy terraces. Time to enjoy the wonderful time you had at the beautiful locations. In Malmö you will stay 1 night in a luxury hotel, including breakfast.
Day 9. Malmö - Lund / 40 KM
Tonight your ferry leaves from Malmö to Travemünde. You must be checked in by 9:00 PM before departure.
You start the day in Malmö with a delicious Swedish breakfast. Our advice would be to use the day for a day trip to Lund. Lund is only 20KM away. Alternatively, there are also fun things to spend your day in Malmö and the surrounding area. You spend the night on the ferry on the way to Travemünde.
Day 10. Travemünde - home
You can reach Travemünde with the Finnlines ferry at 7am. Nice to be able to start the day early. That gives you plenty of time to drive home in the car.
