Green fields. Clear blue skies. Two kilometers west of the very well-preserved medieval castle of Glimmingehus is Vallby. The village lies around the crossroads where one road leads from Glimmingehus to Hammenhög while the other, a rather narrow and winding road, connects highway 11 with Borrby.
The settlement consists of farms and low street houses. The villagers can be said to be a mixture of farmers, artists, entrepreneurs and summer residents. The nearest major town with a school and other services is Hammenhög just under half a mile to the west and Borrby half a mile to the south.
Midway between Hammenhög and Vallby is the popular farm shop Gunnarshög, where rapeseed oil is pressed and processed into a wide range of products that attract many visitors. Simrishamn is about one mile northeast of Vallby. The distance to the beach at Borrby Strand is also about one mile.
