  : All and all we were happy with the stay. We loved the sauna and all the equipment we could use as SUP and toys for the kid. The cabin was one of the smaller one but had everything we needed basically. We made food on the provided grill/bbq. enough for a small family. The bed was big and comfortable even for three people like us. All the animals outside was a great bonus.
  : The only thing I could make a remark on is the tidiness. It was mostly clean but not underneath the furnitures. It also wouldnt hurt if the bushes and grass was properly cut so it wouldnt grow too far into the property/cabin. we didnt mind but could be done better.

  : Cosy little cottage in the middle of the farm close to all the animals, the kids spent the whole day in the stables and didn't want to leave! Relaxed atmosphere and friendly hosts. Nice sauna on the beach but also nice that we had a little sauna inside the cottage. Convinient that there are bikes for adults and children of all ages that you can borrow whenever you like.
  : Really nothing to complain about!

  : We stayed in a beautiful traditional red country house with a small garden and with chicken and cats visiting us regularly. There were other animals (goats, rabbits and horses) on the farm. After walking ca 500 m along a beautiful country road you could reach a beach to swim, canoe or paddle (on board). On the beach area there was also a volley ball field and sauna heated with fire wood. The island (Fgl) can only be reach by a ferry few times a day so it was quiet even if the place was along the road. The reception was open 24h with necessities for sale which you paid by inserting money in a box when unmanned. The host family was exceptionally kind and took their time to chat and explain even if busy in their farming work. It was like a small paradise in a beautiful landscape of land with scents of early Summer and concert of nesting birds around. We did rent electric bikes from Mariehamn after exiting Viking line boats and it took us one and a half hours and 25km to reach Svin with several stops, from where the ferry goes to Fgl (30min). 5 km remained after ferry to reach the Westergrds. Perfect holiday for us with experiences and sights to bring us back to our childhood with flowers and sounds of nature.
  : There was nothing we did not like. A small complain could be about the sauna in the beach area that it did not really become warm like Finnish saunas are expected in spite of burning firewood constantly. Also the sauna could be in a more private location than in the middle of the beach with other visitors running around the sauna. For many people sauna is a bit of a "holy" place and relaxing ritual. There was the sauna also in the house we did live and it was a way much better than the one on the beach.

  : The environment was amazing, the farm animals were cute and friendly. Host was lovely and helpful, lived in neighbour house, would always say hello but gave you space. Island was "in the middle of nowhere" so it was lovely quiet. Overall great stay.
  : Cabin had few technical issues - doors had to be locked so they would not open by themselves, windows and bathroom doors were unstable. This is normal in old cabins though. There are multiple cabins and the pictures online are from the seemingly better ones, so probably ask ahead what you're getting.

  : The 4 person house close to the beach was great, but a car is recommended. Its great if you like privacy. The other 4 person unit is by the main house with farm animals and reception about.The terrace has both chill sofas and a dining space. You can fit about than 10 persons comfortably on that terrace. Easy walk to the sand beach with a jetty, sun chairs as well as paddle boat, SUP and canoes for rent.
  : The white outdoors cushions look dirty, would look nicer with a darker color.The loft is very small, ok for kids but a bit tight for adults.Id go again!
