Despite the rainy weather, it's really impressive and it's hard to believe that work is still being done there! The farmer showed us his machines and equipment

Landed here on the way to Anfredsro Gård, nice place with cozy nature.

Beautiful part of Skåne, especially now that everything is green. If you're lucky, you might see red deer when you drive through here. The Lodge is nearby if you fancy a spa day.

Björnstorp's annual Christmas market is an event to look forward to every year! We never miss it.

The Christmas market was disappointing, there were too many people, too few sales to really look like it was Christmas, and no 'real' food you could buy for lunch, despite the cafe and food stalls...
