Monday 11 August - Part 3
Åtvidaberg Golf Club
Driving on towards our goal for the day, Västervik, we were hoping to find somewhere to have lunch in Åtvidaberg - a small town (~7000 inhabitants) neither of us really knew much about. As we approached it, we saw a sign pointing to a golf course, though - and one thing we've learned on previous road trips is that golf clubs usually also have restaurants serving lunch... So we turned down that road - and weren't disappointed!
After having had lunch in their rather elegant (but at the same time cosy) dining room, we also went for a stroll down to the golf course and lake nearby.
They even have a hotel on the premises - I suppose convenient for golf tournaments etc.
"Villa Baro is an exclusive and very cosy hotel situated by the lake in Åtvidaberg, 30 minutes from Linköping and 2 hours and 20 minutes by train from Stockholm. - Villa Baro offers meeting facilities, a 18-hole golf course, yoga, relax, paddle, kayaking, hunting and fishing (crayfish) – great kitchen with locally produced food. All in a very relaxing atmosphere creating energy and harmony in beautiful surroundings."

Villa Baro is the perfect blend of elegance, relaxation, and natural beauty, making your detour well worth it
