Welcome to Ellingbu, a charming mountain cabin where you can enjoy peace and nature completely undisturbed. The location is perfect – just 2.5 hours from Oslo, yet in its own little world with no neighbors.
The cabin has been recently upgraded with modern amenities, while retaining its authentic cabin atmosphere. The personal decor creates a warm and inviting atmosphere, and the unique conservatory with glass walls offers fantastic views of the yard and valley.
The property offers many outdoor activities right on your doorstep. You can gather around the fire pit in the gapahuken, barbecue on the gas or charcoal grill, and the children can play badminton, volleyball or croquet in the yard.
From the cabin, you can explore several beautiful hiking trails, such as the popular route to Jettegrytene or the charming trail to Stølstjern. In winter, there is a short distance to both alpine slopes and groomed cross-country trails, and right outside the cabin you will find a fun sledding hill for the whole family.

I have grown up with Ellingbu since 1963, and the cabin has been a beloved gathering place for the family throughout the seasons. We have recently upgraded the cabin with all modern amenities, but retained its personal atmosphere. Now we want to share this special place with others who can appreciate its unique location and the tranquility of the mountains.

The stay in the vacation home was wonderful. Combining the classic rustic charm of a log cabin with many modern amenities, the atmosphere simply invited you to relax in comfort.
The basic equipment is so extensive that you should not lack for anything.
To get to know the area better, you can simply go on a discovery tour yourself and explore hiking trails, footpaths, rivers, lakes, and mountains, or consult Per's wonderful suggestions for guidance. This also includes the option of using Per's canoe at the lake, which is within walking distance.
