Country B&B & nature retreat in the heart of Bergslagen, Sweden. Home since 1903.
We welcome you to Bredsjö Herrgård
Originally from California, we made Sweden our home in 2020. After years of city life, we longed for more meaning, less screen time, and a deeper connection to nature. That longing grew into a shared dream: a place where movement, creativity, good food, and time outdoors could be shared.
Completed in 1903 by bruksdisponent Lars Larsson, Bredsjö (Nya) Herrgård has long been a place of gathering. Shaped by industry, celebration, and creative life, including many years as a collective for a theatre group. Most recently, Robert Norelius and Susanne Lindholm lovingly ran the property as a bed & breakfast and passed the baton to our family in Oct, 2025. We will continue to operate as a Bed & Breakfast, and also add wellness and fitness experiences for our guests to enjoy.
We see ourselves not as owners, but as caretakers, continuing the tradition of community and care for the next generation of families to enjoy. Stay in our guest rooms, cold plunge in the lake, warm up in the sauna, gather for movement or conversation, or wander the endless forest. However you spend your time here, you are welcome.
