Between forest and lake
Enjoy a stay at our B&B in Dalarna, nestled in nature between the lake and the forest. We offer a peaceful retreat close to local wildlife, yet we are just a 10-minute drive from central Falun and only 10 minutes from the famous Lugnet sports facility on the edge of town.
750 sq. ft. suite
The B&B offers a spacious 70 m² (750 sq. ft.) suite in a bungalow located in the village of Österå, right by the shores of Lake Varpan.
The suite features a large bedroom, a sauna, a shower, and a bathroom, accommodating up to 4 guests. You will also have access to a lovely winter garden (sunroom)—the perfect spot for dining, breakfast, or simply relaxing.

Rich History & Culture
The village of Österå is located in the heart of Dalarna—a region renowned for inspiring iconic Swedish artists like Anders Zorn , Carl Larsson, and Arvid Backlund, as well as being the home of the legendary Vasaloppet ski race since 1922.
Österå is also part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site around the Falun Copper Mine. Today, you can still find traces of this historic industrial era; for instance, the village beach originally served as a bustling shipping port for copper ore.
No matter the history here—from clayworks and sawmills to tar production—Lake Varpan always offers truly special experiences. Watching the early dawn light gradually break through the shifting mists in early spring or late autumn is something that captivates anyone, artist or not. The same goes for the fireworks display on Walpurgis Night, as their lights reflect across the lake’s dark water. And on warm summer days, there’s nothing quite like taking a refreshing dip.”
