South of Fredrikstad, among the beautiful reefs of the Torgaut Islands, you'll find this bright and cozy cabin. With lots of charm, plenty of outdoor space and plenty of beds, this cabin is ideal for families who want to go on a cozy cabin trip together. Everything is set up for you to enjoy yourselves in all weathers and spend quality time in each other's company.
The natural light and light wood materials, combined with the blue color scheme, give the cabin a maritime and cozy atmosphere. Curl up on the sofa facing the large windows in the living room and enjoy the fjord view that becomes a painting and a natural part of the cabin's interior. With binoculars, you can look out for boats, birds and the fjord's beautiful animals.
The cabin has plenty of outdoor seating that can be used all year round, so you can move from one spot to another and enjoy the sun all day long. If you want to relax in the shade on a hot summer day, you can lie in the hammock and listen to the leaves rustling in the wind and the birds chirping.
Gressvik offers many cultural monuments such as Kjøkøy Fort and Torgauten Fort from World War II, and Strømtangen Lighthouse from 1859. The Glufsa lookout point is right next to the cabin, and in summer you can walk to the popular bathing spot Foten. Those who want to can take the short drive into Fredrikstad city center where you can explore the cozy Old Town.
It is important to point out that there is no road to the cabin. It's a 30-minute walk from the parking lot at Foten bathing area to the cabin. So take your family by the hand and find this authentic cabin after a nice walk.

My name is Anne, and I own this cozy cabin in Fredrikstad. For me, the cabin is synonymous with leisure, swimming and paddling. Here I enjoy the fantastic view, the sea, the sky and the weather. I enjoy myself regardless of the weather, both inside, outside and in the area around my cabin.
The cabin means a lot to me and is a place I go to spend time with family and friends. Here I get a break from everyday life and feel a special peace.

It was a lovely weekend! The cottage was extremely clean and tidy when we arrived. The view is beautiful, and the cabin is charming and quiet. We brought hiking packs with all our food and clothes and it worked quite well on the walk to the cabin. We went for a walk to have a meal at the kiosk at Foten bathing place and the food was good. We hope we get to visit the cabin again. Absolutely recommended!
