Golf Courses
We're not golfers (yet) so we can't tell you exactly how it's to play on the nearby courses. The clubs' websites are in Swedish but use the google translation if they don't have any switch to English. If you struggle with the booking, as a guest at the Metz Cottage we call our golfing friends and ask how to do ;).
