High, almost in between Södra Mellby and Vitaby, is the small village of Bästekille, along the winding country road. To the west, Bästekille hills rise with pastures, stone fences and juniper trees. Around Bästekille there are several popular horse farms with riding stables and trail rides.
The view from the high ground towards Kivik, Stenshuvud and the Baltic Sea is breathtaking. The distance to Kivik and St Olof, with services of various kinds, such as a retirement home, shops and a school, is about five kilometres away. The village offers cultural activities such as art exhibitions. Bertil i Bästekille's farm shop, which offers organic vegetables etc. is also in the village. A stone's throw east of Bästekille is Friden with its popular wood-fired pizzas.
