Aircamp Furillen
Enjoy an exceptional Airstream experience at a Swedish design hotel on the island of Gotland.
Hotel Furillen, one of the best known design hotels in Sweden now offers another outstanding recreation experience. From the end of this month guests can stay in a brand new Airstream 534 close to the beach and enjoy the style and comfort of Hotel Furillen nearby.
Besides the Airstream the hotel offers 18 unique rooms and a restaurant styled in industrial shades of grey with pared down design in true Scandinavian style. There is an equal portion of austerity and luxury, with crackling fires and freshly baked bread tossed in for warmth.
The design of the "Furillen Airstream" fits perfect to the rest of the hotel and surrounding. With his distinct style Johann Hellström has created a very special atmosphere in the Airstream that brings nature into the focus when you look to the outside through the real glass panoramic windows.
The perfect service, delicious food and the family atmosphere of Johan and his wife taking personal care to guarantee an unforgettable Airstream experience on the Furillen Island with its untouched nature, long beaches and stiff cliffs. Furillen Island is a small island connected to the famous island of Gotland.

The Tin Pangolin
When images of Airstreams became the wall paper for the family mac, Carla knew husband Paul's level of obsession was something she needed to take seriously. She wondered if this was to be the start of a mid life crisis, and felt that an Airstream for family trips sure beats a motor bike. Follow the adventures of these touring first timers with their new
Airstream blog as they take a career break and tour Europe in an International 684.
