Sjöstugan is a hall for hire on the island of Tjörn, in the harbour of Myggenäs, also called Almösund, on the Swedish west coast. The upper floor holds up to 150 people, with seating for up to 100. It is rented for weddings, dinners, large and small parties and dance courses, and it also suits information meetings, annual general meetings and courses. The hall comes with furniture, china for 100, a kitchen and a sound system, so organisers bring their own food and entertainment.
Seminars and company events
The official site lists the hall as suitable for meeting use: information meetings, annual meetings and courses. It does not describe a conference package, projector or breakout rooms, so treat it as a simple hall where you set up your own programme. The sound system, with a wireless microphone and a cable for a laptop, phone or music player, is the only presentation equipment mentioned. Daytime weekday hire and evening hire are both offered, which suits a half-day session or an evening meeting.
Weddings and receptions
Weddings are one of the main uses named by the owner. The site shows wedding table settings in the main hall and links to more table plans. With seating for 100 and room for 150 guests in total, the hall suits a mid-sized wedding dinner followed by dancing. Access to the hall the day before, or the evening before from 17:00, can be arranged for decorating.
Rooms and capacities
The building is a split-level house. The upper floor is the party hall, and the entrance level is part of the same hire. The lower floor is used by the Hjälteby sea scouts and is not part of the hall. The hall takes up to 150 people in total and up to 100 seated. The main entrance has a ramp for wheelchair access.
Accommodation
There is no accommodation in the building. Almöns Camping lies within walking distance, and guests can also come by boat and moor in the guest harbour.
Catering
The hall has no in-house catering described on the site. The kitchen has fridges, a freezer, a cooker with oven, a microwave, a coffee maker and a dishwasher. Tables, chairs and china for 100 people are provided, so a hired caterer or a volunteer team can serve a seated meal.
History and setting
Sjöstugan sits in the small-boat harbour of Myggenäs and Almösund, overlooking the marina and the Askerön fjord, Askeröfjorden. The building was designed with the upper level as the party hall and shares the site with a scout group.
Getting there
The hall is close to the Tjörn bridge, so it is easy to reach from Orust, Stenungsund, Kungälv and Gothenburg. It has its own car park, and more parking is available in the harbour, especially in summer.
