There is a time of year when the pace slows down a bit. When the evenings become softer, the mornings clearer and nature begins to shift into warmer tones. For us at Båsenberga, late summer is one of the most beautiful periods of the year.
Many people think that summer is over when the holidays end. But here in Sörmland it feels almost the opposite. The calm returns, the golf course is still green, the lake is mirror-clear and the forest is filled with scents that tell us that autumn is on its way.
It is a time when it becomes easier to stop.
Mornings that start in peace and quiet
Waking up at Båsenberga on a late summer morning is something very special.
The window is ajar. The air is cool and clear. Outside, you can hear the birds and the wind moving through the trees. There is no stress, just a long breakfast with freshly baked bread, freshly brewed coffee and a view of the Sörmland countryside.
Perhaps that's when you realize that a weekend isn't about getting as much done as possible - but about being where you are.
Flavors that follow the season
The changes of the seasons are clearly visible in the restaurant.
Our chef lets seasonal ingredients guide the menus and draws inspiration from the Sörmland pantry. When late summer arrives, the kitchen is filled with flavors from the forest, gardens and local producers.
Each menu becomes a reflection of the location and the season.
This means that no two dinners are ever exactly alike.
Nature right outside your door
One of the things our guests appreciate most is that nature is always close by.
Take a walk in nature before dinner. Sit on the dock for a while. Play a round of golf while the air is still warm or hit the roads and discover the surroundings at your own pace.
It doesn't have to be more complicated than that.
Often it's the simple moments that stick around the longest.
A time for recovery
After the summer, many people feel they need a break again. Not a long vacation – just a day or two where the phone can rest a bit and where the most important decision of the day is whether to go for a walk before or after dinner.
That's exactly why late summer has become a favorite with many of our guests.
Welcome to late summer at Båsenberga
Whether you are planning a weekend for two , a golf weekend or just want to get away for a while, we hope you will have the opportunity to experience late summer with us.
Because sometimes it's not the big trips we remember the most. It's those days when everything had to go a little slower.
And then nature had to set the pace.
