Skummeslöv is situated in the south end of Sweden’s longest beach between Halmstad and Båstad. We have about 900 metres to the sea where the water is shallow and the sunsets are amazing. Just by the beach, hidden in the sand dunes, is a heated salt water pool, open to the public. The town centre of Skummeslöv is 1 km’s away where you’ll find a well-sorted grocery shop, a bakery, some restaurants, minigolf-courses and tenniscourts. It’s close to Båstad, just 10 km’s away, and it’s possible to go by car or by bike. Båstad is a charming town, visited by lots of tourists in the summer to relax, play tennis & golf, party and to enjoy the wild and beautiful nature. Båstad is host to the Swedish Open tennis tournament. It’s wonderful driving around the peninsula and make stops along the way to buy local produced ecological delicatessen. There are plenty of golf courses around in the area, and within walking distance from our house there’s a 12-hole pay&play. Skummeslöv is situated between Sweden’s 2nd city Gothenburg (150 km north) and 3rd city Malmö (100 km south). Nearest larger airport is Copenhagen in Denmark (100 km).

Skummeslöv is just on the border between the regions Halland and Skåne. Southern Sweden is where around 80 % of the population of the country lives with pastoral, rolling countryside, endless forest and temperate climes. Skåne is Sweden’s most southernmost region and is generally associated with rich farming districts, endless open fields and wide, flat horizons. Halland and Skåne has rocky coastlines such as the scenic Kullaberg peninsula and the famous and dramatic Hovs Hallar on the Bjäre peninsula, near Torekov (an enchanting seaside town, well worth a visit), where Ingmar Bergman’s “The Seventh Seal” was filmed. Both of these landscapes, however, are first and foremost characterised by the many mile-long beaches with white sand and rolling dunes of a kind many visitors are amazed to find on these latitudes.
