We are Sune and Åsa, the owners of Klobbar´s Hostelry and Cabins. We live on Kökar all year round, just like our family has done for centuries. The name Klobbar´s comes from the name of a hill, Klobben, where Sune´s grandparents lived until 1900. When they bought their new farm, Östergård, they brought the name Klobben and ever since then our part of the island is know as Klobbar´s. The place that Klobbar´s is situated on has been carefully chosen. Its strategic location at Degerfjärd protects us from wind and high sea and provides us both a safe harbour and close by fishing waters. |

On the aerial photo on the left (taken in the 1960s) it is easy to see how beautifully located Klobbar´s is. When Sune´s grandparents first came here it was love at first sight! |
In 1978 we opened our first four cabins. The cabins become very popular and in 1980 we expanded with two more cabins. Many of our guests return every summer!
Cabin no. 7 is the largest and the most modern of our cabins and it was built in 1984. The cabin used to be part of the old farm and Sune´s father Albin mainly used it for his boat-building workshop.
In 1984 Sune built the barn, which would later become the Klobbar´s Hostelry. Until we could welcome our first guests at the hostelry in 1999, it was the home of Sune´s sheep.
