Bartley Garden
Askerön

Interior and café in a charming setting

In the old barn on Askerön, between Svanesund and Tjörn, you'll find Bartley Garden. A charming farm shop with a carefully selected range for both home and garden. Here, you can also buy eggs from the farm's chickens, shop for Swedish-grown perennials, shrubs, and small trees. At the garden's summer café, you can enjoy coffee and the view of the sparkling Askeröfjorden. The farm's Hedemora hens roam freely from early morning to late evening.

Inspirational garden

Large parts of the garden are still a classic farm garden with open, spacious grassy areas adorned with old fruit trees and old-fashioned perennials. Taking inspiration from an English Cottage Garden, the garden is gradually being developed with a fenced kitchen garden, an orangery, and raised cultivation beds. Here, you will be able to stroll around or sit among vegetables, floral splendor, and the buzz of bumblebees and bees.

Along the western side, a dramatic rock wall rises, adorned with large oaks and wild ferns below. This area is undergoing a transformation into a woodland garden with an enchanting atmosphere, varying terrain, and woodland featuring conifers, hydrangeas, rhododendrons, and magnolias. The beautiful nature of Little Askerön offers opportunities for refreshing swims, invigorating walks along the sea and meadows, as well as beautiful forests rich in berries and mushrooms.
