SMULL-tron-stell-eh[ˈsmɵltrɔnˌstɛlːɛ]
your own wild-strawberry place: the spot you would rather not share
Closest in English: hideaway, haunt, bolthole. None of them covers it.
Smultron are the tiny wild strawberries you find in a clearing and tell nobody about, and the word slid from the patch to any place you keep for yourself. Bergman borrowed it for a film title in 1957. English has to go to the pub for it and say your local haunt.
