Our guests tell us

Welcome to Wallhalla B&B – where Västerbotten hospitality meets a genuinely homely atmosphere. In our lovingly renovated 19th-century family farm, we offer you much more than standard accommodation. Here, it feels like visiting family, even though you have never been here before. Our guests describe Wallhalla as a place where time slows down, where fantastic breakfasts featuring homemade bread and local produce are served in the cosy kitchen, and where comfortable beds guarantee a good night's sleep in the completely silent night. End the day with a soak in our wood-fired tub beneath the starry sky or enjoy the sauna in our relaxation area. Here we create memories that our guests cherish – and they return time and time again.

"Everything we could have dreamed of"

Wallhalla was everything we could have hoped for, and more. Stig and Ing-Marie were so lovely and welcoming. We had the best time here in your beautiful Swedish home! Being here with you and experiencing traditional Swedish life was everything we could have hoped for! We can’t wait to come back!

"There is a reason why people keep coming back"

Without Wallhalla B&B, Växa Sverige would come to a standstill. I’ve stayed there several times during my business trips to Norrland. A warm welcome and exceptional service. There’s a reason why people keep coming back here.

""Rest and relax under the Northern Lights""

A lovely bed and breakfast run by an incredibly hospitable couple with an eye for detail in everything, from the surroundings to the food! Local produce and little curios to accompany a delicious dinner, followed by a soak in the hot tub under the Northern Lights. Absolutely brilliant, 5/5 toasts!

"You really feel how time slows down"

A wonderful, authentic Västerbotten experience! We came here to find some peace and quiet and get away from the city. You really feel time slowing down, and it’s lovely to stay in such a historic setting. It was great fun going on a kick-sleigh ride too! =)

"Highly recommended"

We, a sporty family, enjoyed our stay at B & B Wallhalla. During the 4 days we made optimal use of the sporting opportunities in the area. Ing-Marie's cooking was excellent. She even took our allergies into account. The house is beautiful. And we liked the sauna and tub. All in all, highly recommended.

"My gut feeling told me we were going here"

We were looking online for some peace and quiet in Umeå and then we found your place. My gut feeling told me that we had to go here and that feeling was so right. What a lovely and peaceful place and your wonderful welcome when we arrived and your hospitality throughout our stay. We are so glad we found Wallhalla and we will be back. Lots of hugs!

We recently had a wonderful visit to Wallhalla. Our time spent was enriching, connecting with the local community and admiring the beautiful landscape. Our hosts were lovely, warm people who I plan on keeping in touch with. There was a great hot tub and sauna too! Highly recommend Wallhalla!

"The best of 10 overnight stays"

Very good accommodation. Top-class service and rooms. The best of the 10 overnight stays we have made on our trip. Homemade jam and marmalade for breakfast! The hosts treated us to dinner as we hadn't had time to eat before check-in!

"A wonderful evening with 27 people"

We were able to visit Wallhalla with a group of 27 people, and the hosts arranged a wonderful evening! Pre-dinner drinks in the garden, where we could walk around and see everything that is grown. Then being able to sit in what used to be a barn, and there enjoy a fantastic Västerbotten buffet featuring local ingredients. Highly recommended.
