Lagomhuset
Lagomhuset - "The Lagom House"
Swedish "Lagom" is one of those special words that doesn't translate directly into English but we feel it is an important word to know - especially for your holiday!
Lagom is more than a word, it is a feeling or sense of being. Lagom can be understood as not too much, not too little, but just right - a feeling of balance. What is "lagom" for one person may be completely different for the next. The temperature of your morning coffee can be "lagom", the cosiness you feel wrapped up by the fire at night can give you a feeling of "lagom", the pace of your day can be "lagom", the taste of your "fikabröd" can be "lagom", sitting around the fire with friends can be "lagom".
Your holiday in Swedish Lapland can be "lagom".
​
This is the feeling that we hope to help you achieve when you stay with us.
​
