Do you want to wake up to only the sound of birds and sheep bells? Then this nature house is the right place for you. This typical Norwegian nature house is located in the middle of nature and can be reached by a beautiful walk of about 10 minutes from the car. This cottage sleeps six and has a modern kitchen with electric stove, oven, refrigerator and microwave, but has no running water indoors. There is also a small bathroom with a so-called hyttedusj (shower with fillable tank and foot pump). Outdoor toilet without drain is located in the shed (so-called utedo). Water you get from the well located further away, which in summer is connected to a tap located next to the cottage. This nature house is a wonderful place for the absolute peace seeker and nature lover, without unnecessary luxury and with complete privacy without nearby neighbors.

Nature and surroundings

The nature house is located in Gausdal, a side valley of the well-known Gubrandsdal. In and around the cottage there is a peaceful atmosphere and you can completely relax with walks and explorations through forests and fields and/or with a cup of coffee on the terrace, overlooking the valley. If you want to make larger, possibly multi-day mountain hikes, several national parks can be reached within 30 minutes to 1.5 hours by car. In the summer there are also opportunities for fishing, mountain biking and horseback riding.

    The 10 min climb from your car is really worth it. Beautiful nature, fantastic porch with great views. From early morning to evening sun on porch, otherwise beautiful clouds where you can sometimes look over because they hang low. Various activities are offered in the area. But entertaining yourself in nature is enough actually. Supermarkets and refueling is 10 min by car in Tretten. Warm reception, contact with the manager is smooth. There is also quickly responded. We also received a nice tip from the manager of beautiful hike. Water is no problem, is close to the house, with the foot pump showering we found no problem. The Hytter (toilet) is a great cozy place :-). A drink by the fireplace after a hike was enjoyable. House was clean and beds slept well. We found the area really beautiful! Around every corner we were again amazed by the beauty of southern Norway.

    You really need to be familiar with Norwegian Hytte life to appreciate a 10-15 min walk with your belongings and food on your back. Good backpack and sturdy shoes are required. Delicious fresh water from the spring you tap at the outdoor tap and take inside. An outside toilet is very common at a hytte and fine. Nice furnishings (with piano!) and fine wood stove. You can really feel at home here. swimming in beautiful lake (cold!) at 10 min. drive. Drive, it was very nice!

    Lovely to sit on the terrace and enjoy the wide view over farmlands with mountains in the distance. All kinds of birds fly to and fro, sheep bells tinkle. A beautiful setting to completely unwind. Particularly friendly reception.

    Clean, tidy, everything well organized and otherwise quick and easy contact with the landlady. Descent to the cottage (and of course especially the climb back up) is really tough, but no less than what you would expect in the area. Toilet outside stays just clean even in summer. Only water outside requires some adaptability of course, but in the cottage are enough possibilities not to have to walk outside for water for every little thing. Tip for the shower: 1 bucket of cold water with twice a full kettle of hot water provides an excellent temperature for showering.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    The cottage is wonderfully quiet. Beautiful view over the valley and the only thing you hear in the area are the sheep bells. Fantastic place to unwind.
