The Edible Country – Gunnebo

This stately home is nestled between two lakes just 15 minutes from the centre of Gothenburg, and is easily reached by public transport. When you book the table at Gunnebo House and Gardens you can enjoy fresh ingredients from the estate gardens, surrounded by imposing oaks in a beautiful cultural reserve just next to Gothenburg.

 

When you book the table at Gunnebo House and Gardens you can enjoy delicious ingredients from the estate kitchen gardens, freshly baked bread from the bakery and one or two herbs you’ve picked yourself. The table is placed by idyllic Lake Stensjön and surrounded by imposing oaks, in Gunnebo’s leafy cultural reserve just next to Gothenburg.

The well preserved 18th century estate of Gunnebo House, with its formal gardens, kitchen gardens and surrounding park has historically been where city jaded Gothenburgers head when they need the peace and quiet of the countryside. The House is situated between two lakes, just 15 minutes from the centre of Gothenburg and is easily reached by public transport. A short walk gets you from the House to the pretty oak grove.

 

The table is bookable on Thursdays from May to September, starting on 26 May.

 

Grown here on the estate

Gunnebo is one of the region’s most popular tourist destinations. Over 200 original drawings and water colours survive to inform the Gunnebo of today. The building is famous for its neoclassical architecture and well kept gardens. Many also come for the food made with Gunnebo’s own seasonal ingredients. The KRAV certified organic vegetables and herbs from the kitchen gardens are harvested and served to guests. Guests who book the table at Gunnebo can expect a menu consisting a main course created by Gunnebo’s chefs. The ingredients basket is also packed with fresh bread and cakes from their own bakery and organic ‘kokkaffe’ to make Swedish boiled coffee.

Gunnebo House is just outside Gothenburg, or to be exact, in Mölndal, about ten kilometres south west of the centre of Gothenburg. It’s easy to get there on public transport.

GETTING HERE

 

Lovely area for walks

Around the house both gardens and the natural landscapes are lavishly planted. In the historic grounds covering approximately 100 hectares there are plenty of lovely trails, for both shorter walks and longer hikes.  These include a pushchair and wheelchair friendly round walk, among others.

Take the opportunity to go on a guided tour of the house, where our knowledgeable guides will relate fascinating stories about the first owner, John Hall, one of Sweden’s richest men, and the other families that lived there. East of the kitchen garden lies Gunnebo Farm, where children can say hi to the hens and have fun in the play area.

Fifteen minutes away Gothenburg awaits, with a huge choice of sights and activities, including Scandinavia’s biggest amusement park, Liseberg, Universeum’s impressive rain forest and an archipelago on the doorstep with fantastic beaches and paddling waters.
