Hi there!
We’re Elin & Kristoffer, and we’re thrilled that you’re considering one of our three holiday homes for your next getaway—whether it’s for a few days, weeks, or even months.
Originally based in Stockholm, Sweden, we’ve recently relocated to Palma, Mallorca, where we continue to pursue our passions. Together, we run We Are Local, an advertising agency and interior design studio. Our work revolves around helping companies and individuals bring their visions to life, whether through architecture, branding, interiors, or creative campaigns.
For as long as we’ve been together, we’ve been collecting homes in our favorite parts of the world. Our journey began with Skogsviste in Uttervik, just outside Nyköping. Purchased in 2007, it was our first project and remains close to our hearts. Over the years, it has evolved and transformed, yet it continues to be a cherished retreat. For a time, we also had a charming apartment in Cannes, France, just steps from the Mediterranean Sea.
Next, in 2020, we acquired Fjällviste, embarking on a major renovation to transform the once-dated cabin into a cozy holiday home, complete with all the modern amenities needed for a perfect family escape.
In 2022, we added Sjöviste to our collection and were immediately captivated by its unique setting, stunning views, and rich history. Over the past year, we’ve focused on renovating the main building and jetty, enhancing the beauty and comfort of this exceptional property.
These homes are incredibly special to us, embodying what we believe are life’s greatest pleasures—whether you’re spending time as a couple, with family, or even hosting a creative business retreat.
We hope you’ll enjoy them as much as we do!
Our mission is to share the most interesting places in Sweden – according to us – and we offer bookings in our personal holiday homes in the heart of the Swedish countryside – Uttervik, in the heart of the "Swedish alps" – Vemdalsskalet, and in the heart of the Swedish archipelago – Hummelvik.
Our homes
A beautiful gathering of small houses nested in the lush forest - right by the Baltic ocean. With sea views from every house and your own private jetty and small beach this is a relaxing and fun place to spend time with friends, family or why not the management team?
A lovely gem close to both the green forest offering exciting hikes and close to the ocean. Take a relaxing dip in the all-year-around heated hot tub, play in the big back yard and enjoy dinners, laughter and fun right next to the wood burned fireplace inside.
The place to be during winter for cross country and downhill skiing – and the place to be during spring, summer and fall for hikes and that inspiring relaxation you get when surrounded by the mountains.
A short 5 minute’s drive and you are in the heart of Vemdalsskalet with its slopes, restaurants and shops.
