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.
Kate Petersen (2 years ago)
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...

Unjustified entry fee of SEK 60. Didn't buy anything at the Christmas market, there were few things that attracted and quite commercial

Château du Lude

The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
