About this property

Western Norway. Unusual architect-designed cottage. Peaceful surroundings. Near water.

You may think you can do without all the modern conveniences, but do you dare? This cabin is "back to nature". It is insulated for year-round use. It is deliberately designed to disconnect from the busy everyday life and see how we can actually manage, in a more environmentally friendly way. The value of doing things together, without all the technology we surround ourselves in our daily lives, is indescribable and must be experienced. The fact that things take time gives a sense of freedom. Nothing must be done in a jiffy. Cumbersome? Maybe a little, but also very rewarding. The experience of peace and quiet here is medicine for most people. We only live two kilometers away, so we can help with laundry if desired. There is no wifi and it is conscious, because we do not want to spend time online, but if you need it for practical use, feel free to use the wireless network in the house where we live. Similarly, if there is a need to freeze items for example fish or berries, you can freeze it at the house we live in. The guest house is 120m2 with 4 bedrooms. 3 up and 1 down. Lots of space inside for both adults and children. It has solar panels, gas stove, gas fridge and a fireplace in the living room. Manual pump shower, washbasin and biological toilet in a separate attachment. Water must be collected from lake nearby. One can charge cell phones by the solar penal. Plenty of cold drinking water from a 40 liter milk can in the kitchen. We will provide you with more, when needed. Outside there are two sun terraces, barbecue area, trampoline and plenty of space for different games and toys. This is the place for those who want to "log out" of modern stress. There are two hammocks for use outside. There is freshwater fishing in the lake directly across from the guest house and deep sea fishing in the fjord 5 min. away by car. You can, if you wish, fish in several lakes (at least 6 fishing waters in the area). In the lake from the guest house it is great to swim. The same can be said about the fjord. You can take the boat out to the islands, bring food and stay there every day if you wish. Great opportunities for mountains and forest hiking. Berries and mushrooms can easily be found and harvested in late summer / early autumn. The guest house is located near a river with salmon and sea trout. You are welcome to use a 10 foot boat in the lake and also a 13 foot boat with 5 hp fishing / swimming engine in the fjord just five minutes drive from the cabin (included in the rent, pay only for patrol).
We have collected booklets, printed maps of the area and written about things to do while enjoying your stay. That's all in our information package in the guesthouse.

Magical Norway
It's not just a holiday home. It's a place Roy and Berit build themselves (literally) and originally for their own family use. Cottage is very well designed, extremely comfortable and full of good vibes. It gives guests fantastic opportunity to slow down and enjoy world without hustle and bustle of everyday urban life. Highly recommended!

Erholsame Ferien mitten in der Natur
In dem sehr gemütlichen Haus lassen sich mit der ganzen Familie gut entspannende zwei Wochen verbringen. Mitten im Grünen gelegen und mit jeder Menge Outdoor-Aktivitäten drumherum findet sich für jeden etwas. Die Vermieter sind ausgesprochen nett und helfen bei allen Problemchen jederzeit weiter.

Ein Haus mit Herz
Das Ferienhaus ist sehr schön in Norwegen gelegen, viele Ausflüge sind von hier aus möglich. Das Ferienhaus selber ist sehr liebevoll eingerichtet, passend zu den Vermietern die einem immer mit Rat und Tat behilflich sind. Es ist ein kleines Abenteuer in der heutigen Zeit ohne viel Strom und fließend Wasser auszukommen, welches aber erstaunlich gut funktioniert und überhaupt nicht stört - im Gegenteil. Wir können das Ferienhaus wärmstens empfehlen.
