Words from happy guests

Beautiful location, and the price matched the conditions: no electricity or water. The cabin was -10 degrees Celsius in the morning before we arrived, but Bente had heated it up to 16 degrees by the time we got there, and it was 24 degrees at bedtime.

Max Vittrup from Norway

Stay for 2 adults and 1 child

A beautiful, practical, and cozy cabin in peaceful surroundings and beautiful nature.

Marie Salomonsen from Norway

Stephan from Germany

Stay for 10 adults and 1 baby

We really enjoyed our stay at this lovely house. Everything is very well equipped and you find all the things to really enjoy your stay. The surroundings are lovely especially as we‘ve been lucky to have a perfect winter wonderland. Victoria is very responsive and answered all our questions.

Jan from Switzerland

Stay for 2 adults and 1 child

Really nice cabin! Top notch. Great view from the cabin to the mountains.

Mie from Denmark

Stay for 4 adults, 1 child and 1 baby

Very nice, stylish, and cozy cabin. The cabin and the surrounding cabins are beautifully secluded with great views, good parking conditions, and a well-cleared road for snow. It took about 15 minutes to drive to the Hemsedal ski center, where you can find plenty of parking spaces right next to the lift. The cabin was modern and well furnished. We had brought everything with us from home, but as the landlord uses the cabin himself, it was fully furnished with everything you need for everyday life. The beds were comfortable, and both the bathroom facilities and toilets were clean and tidy.

Anders from Denmark

Stay for 4 adults, 1 child and 2 babies

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this spacious, state-of-the-art cabin, which offers every amenity one could wish for. As architects, it was a delight to stay in such a well-designed home, clearly created with an eye for detail and style by the owners. We especially appreciated the fireplace, the sauna area, and grilling sausages outdoors. The proximity to the ski slope and Hovden town center was also very convenient. Thank you for letting us stay here!
