Ystad kommun stretches along the eastern half of the southern coast of Skåne, and is peppered with delightful little villages where accommodation can sometimes be found. We’ve heard a lot of great things about Gästis Afkopplingen, though its austere antitechnological philosophy means it’s not for everyone.
