Welcome to Bredsjö Herrgård

The grand dining room, built in 1903 at Bredsjö Herrgård

Built in 1903 by bruksdisponent Lars Larsson, Bredsjö (Nya) Herrgård has long been a place of gathering and reflection. Over the years, it has been shaped by industry, celebration, and creative life, including many years as a theatre collective. Most recently, Robert Norelius and Susanne Lindholm lovingly ran it as a bed & breakfast before passing the torch to our family in October 2025. Today, we continue this legacy as a B&B, while gently expanding the experience to include wellness, movement, and time to reconnect – with yourself, with others, and with the land.

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. We see ourselves not as owners, but as caretakers, continuing a long tradition of community and care. Stay in our guest rooms, cold plunge in the lake, warm up in the sauna, gather for movement, nourishment or conversation, or wander the endless forest. However you spend your time here, you are welcome.

Guest Reflections

“A true gem inside and out! Set in gorgeous surroundings overlooking the lake, it really feels like a place that invites you to pause, enjoy, and charge your batteries. The house is full of charm and the sauna by the lake is exactly what you'd wish for. Don't think twice, just book it and look forward to it.”

— Christine Clancy

“Recently back from a fantastic getaway weekend at Bredsjö Herrgård and I will definitely return to this magically peaceful property nestled between forrest and lake. I was pleasantly surprised by how easy it was to get there without a car from Stockholm and getting picked up at the bus station, upon my arrival, by Marc was just the beginning of their full service. If I could give more than 5 stars for the breakfast, I would. Great destination to rest and recharge, in my opinion.”

— Emily Barouch

“Fantastic place in Bergslagen run by the incredible Marc and Erika! Warm and genuine. Worth one or more visits to relax, get away from the screen and enjoy the peace. Highly recommended!”
