Lådfabriken

This place is unique, very different from anywhere else we have stayed and an amazing experience. Beautifullly located right on the western coast of Orust with a lovely garden leading down to the sea, perfect to watch the evening sunset over the bay. Johan and Marcel will make you very welcome and their food is excellent, our room was very comfortable too. We loved it.

It was my first time staying at Lådfabriken - but certainly not the last one! Coming to Lådfabriken was like visiting old friends or family. It's this distinct feeling of being welcome from the very first seconds of the informal check-in ("There you are, we've been waiting for you" was the first thing I heard) and through the entire stay. The place's warm athmosphere and the hosts' laid-back attitude make you feel at ease. Johan and Marcel are incredibly great hosts with lots of experience and the passion for what they're doing. The right people in the right place is the least I can say. And you can talk to them in all possible tongues - English, German, Swedish, Dutch (didn't try), Spanish, (o)djurspråket, and certainly many more which I didn't dare to explore. Lådfabriken is a creative place, well thought-out and designed. You feel at home instantly despite sharing the space with others. You can enjoy your meals (breakfast and dinner) in the company of other guests, sharing your impressions and experiences. It's the Lådfabriken magic which unites everyone involved and makes them friends, for the moment or maybe longer. I came to Hälleviksstrand to celebrate a wedding (not mine though), and the celebration wouldn't have been as full and accomplished without my stay at Lådfabriken. Thank you! :D

this is one of the most unique places we ever visited: starting with the overwhelming hospitality of johan and marcel, enjyoing the faboulous dinner prepared by marcel, drinking your evening coffee /tea / ... in the outlook window facing the sea, the freshly prepared breakfast - fabiolous! the rooms and the whole building are filled with design and fancy items from antique stores and flew markets. we enjoyed all of this, and also the common breakfast and also dinner (in case you book it) with the other guests.

We had the great opportunity to be invited to Lådfabriken for a birthday party. The place is so unique. It is like spending time in someone’s fantastic and superbly designed home. Johan greeted us like a friend at the door. He and Marcel were always around, working with stuff and attending to our needs simultaneously. The place as a very refined yet extremely relaxed wine to it. We had a fantastic shell fish dinner with the most exquisite cray fish, crabs and shrimps. The best and the freshest I have ever tasted. The breakfast was an experience in itself. Thank you for a wonderful and surprising stay.
