Take a break at this charming mansion in Tofta

Bordering a natural reserve and close to the sea, family-run Tofta Manor is ideal for a quiet getaway with family and friends. The historical estate boasts fantastic culinary experiences, numerous activities and themed packages, and an inspiring backdrop for conferences and meetings.

Tofta Manor is a family-run estate, located on the Tofta peninsula between Gothenburg and Marstrand on Sweden’s west coast. The main building dates back to the 18th century and is listed as a historical landmark, with classic interior including more than 100-year-old wallpaper and some of the original furniture. The estate includes a number of other beautiful buildings with cosy rooms for guests, a praised restaurant, conference and meeting rooms, a new sauna and lounge, and its own farm.

In the restaurant, the team serves up a culinary experience with carefully selected local produce from small-scale farms and gardens in the area. “Our chefs work with set menus in the evenings, which means that we can control the waste,” confirms Petter Karlander, who runs the hotel and restaurant together with his wife Karen. “We also work with local produce on a seasonal basis. And the estate actually houses a farm, so if we serve for instance steak tartare in the restaurant it will made be with meat from our own cows.”

Inspiring meetings in gorgeous backdrop

The estate borders a natural reserve and the scenic backdrop adds another dimension to conferences, workshops and meetings. “Groups find Tofta Manor an inspiring setting for their activities,” confirms Petter. “Walk & Talk meetings around the natural reserve are particularly popular and perfect for combining teambuilding, creativity and fresh air.”

The peaceful and cosy atmosphere is also ideal for romantic weekends and celebrations such as birthdays and anniversaries. And Tofta Manor offers fantastic themed packages including golf, with the golf course winding itself around the estate, as well as hiking and gourmet experiences. “The whole family will find something to enjoy,” assures Petter. “Someone might enjoy a round of golf, whilst someone else goes for a hike or a swim, and then they’ll meet up for a drink by the sauna afterwards.”

New at Tofta Manor this year is a sauna and lounge designed by architect Karin Wingårdh, the perfect place to unwind and socialise after a day of inspiring activities. And on 29 June, the summer theatre will premiere with Private Lives by Noël Coward, a play about passion and marriage. Theatre tickets are available from Wednesday to Saturday during the month of July.
