Completely undisturbed, this lovely, traditional log cabin lies 906 meters above sea level with grass on the roof and sheep grazing around the cabin wall. Here you get modern comfort in a unique setting with traditional cabin furniture, cozy textiles, raw timber walls and an elk head on the wall. Here you can retreat and enjoy the calm and cozy time together as a family. The new guest cabin also offers the opportunity to bring the entire extended family to the cabin.
The interior is characterized by the warm atmosphere we associate with cottage life. The cabin is furnished in a typical Norwegian way with furniture that has been inherited, and has many cozy memories associated with it. With beautiful references to the Norwegian cabin tradition, a lovely sofa nook in front of the fireplace with room for the whole family and personal details that really set the mood, you have everything you need for a really cozy holiday together.
Prepare the day's meals together in the cozy kitchen and enjoy them together at the long dining table. Here you can have long conversations over a good meal or play games together in the evenings after a long day in the mountains. In the kitchen, there is a cozy nook where you can keep the chef company or drink your first cup of coffee of the day with a good book.
The area around the cabin offers wonderful hiking opportunities in summer and winter, and is something that can form the framework for many great experiences together as a family. Visit the Hardangervidda national park, which is directly behind the cabin, or enjoy alpine skiing at the ski center in Ulvdal.
After a few hours out in the fresh mountain air, you can grill sausages on the terrace and enjoy them leaning against the sun-warmed cabin wall. The paving around the cabin means that the outdoor area is arranged for play, sunbathing and just enjoying the peace, the sun, the view and each other's company.

We are Bjørn and Gro and live in Sande in Vestfold, together with our 2-year-old flat-coated retriever Max. Our cabin is only a couple of hours' drive away, and we often go there with our son Gard and his wife Mariell, and our grandson Harald. We love spending time at the cabin together, and when we bought it, we had to promise the previous owners that we would continue their tradition: when you arrive at the cabin, you must have a shot of aquavit. Then you know you're at the cabin, and a sense of calm descends as the fire crackles in the fireplace and the candles are lit. Nothing is urgent.
Our dog also loves being at the cabin and roaming around the yard. In the summer, sheep graze around the cabin. When we are at the cabin, we go on trips right from there, either on foot or with mountain skis on our feet, and have direct access to the Hardangervidda National Park, where we enjoy the sight of eagles almost every time we are at the cabin.
Sometimes we drive to Solheimstulen (3.5 km), park there and walk towards Imingfjell or along other trails. It is about a 10-minute drive down to the ski slopes at Uvdal Alpinanlegg. It is also less than an hour's drive to Langedrag, where we go on trips with our grandchildren and see wolves and other wild animals if we want a completely different kind of day. We enjoy grilling sausages for lunch while sitting against the sun-warmed log wall, reading a little, looking at the mountains, and listening to the sounds around us.
