Fågelsjö Gammelgård Bortom Åa - En världsarvsgård i Orsa Finnmark.

The gammelgård (“old farmhouse”) is for good reasons UNESCO world heritage listed and beautiful, remarkable and well worth a visit. What I want to emphasise here though is 1) the fantastic whole hamlet of Fågelsjö (“bird lake”) with its original well-kept houses and beautiful scenery, 2) its many friendly inhabitants who make visitors feel very welcome and 3) last and absolutely not least the café in the big red building (the “new” farmstead which replaced gammelgården). The café is run by a lovely Thai lady who both knows Thai hospitality at its best and knows about Swedish home cooking. Do yourselves a GREAT favour and have a meal or at least a bulle (sweet Swedish pastry role) and a cup of coffee there (open 10-17 in summer, remaining time of the year I am not sure) - enjoy the food, the hospitality, the serene surroundings and a moment which will linger in your memory. And yes, there is a kids’ playground, a spot to park your motor home overnight, and the possibility to rent a boat or a kayak. Did I mention the fishing? Enjoy! It does not come better than this!

Ett jättefint kulturarv! Väldigt trevligt personal, god fika (rekommenderar deras kanelbullar), två loppisar, häftiga byggnader och fin butik. Väl värt ett besök! …

En fin och historiskt gammal plats, där alla byggnader står kvar på de platser där de ursprungligen byggts. Nu är den ett världsarv. Finns fik och går att äta thaimat (finns annat också) i Amerika huset. Två loppisar finns. Guidning erbjuds …
