Scandinavian cottages are what dreams are made of. From summer to winter these homes truly inspire with all their hygge and romantic charms.

10 Dreamy Scandinavian Summer Cottages

Is there such a thing as a Scandinavian cottage?

Once summer arrives, there’s nothing like escaping to a beach house or a little cottage in the woods. While either option may not be necessarily accessible to all, a little inspiration never hurts.

Our friends in the north countries inspire us today by living simply and beautifully. So let’s dip our toes into the sand, take a walk into the woods and immerse ourselves in these breathtaking interiors.

From Sweden, Norway, and Finland…

1. Niki – My Scandinavian Home | A Charming and Idyllic Swedish Country Home in Summertime

A little red cottage in Sweden with fabulous casual hygge. Dream away…

2. Eva – Cafe’ Design | A Scandinavian Cottage Makeover

This Scandinavian cottage makeover in the woodlands of Norway is absolutely amazing with simple cosmetic changes on a budget!

3. decordemon | The Red Traditional Scandinavian Cottage

It’s cottages like this one that inspired me with the color and style of our home here in Vermont. The dark reds and rich wood tones, oh my goodness!

4. INREDNINGSVIS | A Swedish Summer House To Kill For

This summer cottage is just too good to be true. It is perfect in every way from the surface to the interior, and style, and is also located on the summer dream island of Gotland.

Elsa will take you from the beach to the garden, and onto the table throughout her beautiful Scandinavian cottage. If this doesn’t inspire you to visit Sweden, I don’t know what else will…

6. This Ivy House | A Haven for Faded Beauty, Artful Neglect, and Stylish Dilapidation

Can you hear the floors creaking and smell the bread baking? This old Scandinavian summer cottage is filled with heirlooms and flea market finds. A true gem!

7. Elin SKÖNA HEM | LANTLIG SKÄRGÅRDSLYX I HUSET MED HAVSUTSIKT FRÅN ALLA RUM

Bright and airy and by the sea. Marvelous perfection!

8. Huset i Lunden | Baketips til helgen

You’ll start inside this cottage with a few Scandinavian baking recipes and then fall deep into the photos of this beautiful minimalist home where every detail is more charming than the next.

From this to that! An absolutely awe-inspiring Norwegian summer cottage transformation.

10. BY SHNORDIC | My Rustic Nordic Summer Cottage Project

A little red summer cottage in southwest Finland. Flaky pastel-painted walls, dusty crochet curtains on the porch windows. Mismatches of faded patterns and recycled furniture make this truly a slow-living cottage dream.
