The surroundings of this authentic farmhouse in Presterud, Norway, will introduce you to the native culture, atmosphere and character of the Norwegian landscape. The monumental nature house has the authentic look from 1803, but has been completely modernized inside. To preserve the old, the tree trunks, from which the house was built, are still visible in the kitchen. The nature house, surrounded by a large grassland, stands in the middle of the forest. The only sound is of birds and the wind through the trees. Here it is quiet and full of nature. So from the nature house hiking, biking and fishing and in winter cross-country skiing, alpine skiing on Norefjell is all possible. As an extra, in the forest there is a double treehouse at your disposal. Presterud is located in the municipality of Modum and in Buskerud county. This province is a short distance from Oslo, Norway's capital, and near the ski and nature areas of Vikersund, Norefjell, Geilo and Hemsedal.

Clean and complete
Schoon en compleet
The cottage is beautifully situated in the countryside. Surrounding the cottage are terraces with comfortable patio furniture where you can enjoy the peace and quiet and the view. The owners live nearby and are available if needed, but they also respect your privacy. In short: highly recommended!
Het huisje ligt prachtig in het landschap. Rondom het huisje zijn terrassen met fijn tuinmeubilair waar je van de stilte en het uitzicht kunt genieten. De eigenaren wonen vlak bij en zijn beschikbaar als het moet maar bieden ook alle gewenste privacy. Kortom: een absolute aanrader!

Everything we needed was there. And whenever we needed help, the owners were quick to step in and assist us.
Alles wat we nodig hadden was aanwezig. En als we hulp nodig hadden waren de eigenaren snel aanwezig om te helpen.
The tranquility around the cottage was very profound. The view was soothing, and the goats, cats, swallows, and other birds were a real delight.
De rust rondom het huisje was heel intens. Het uitzicht rustgevend en de geitejs en de poezen, zwaluwen en andere vogels erg fijn.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Presterud. The house is fully equipped and situated in a beautiful setting. The little lake, the animals, and the comfortable couch were the highlights for our son (age 8). The owners are incredibly friendly and make sure you have everything you need. The wildflowers and fresh herbs on the counter made for a warm welcome.
We’ll definitely be back!We hebben enorm genoten van ons verblijf in Presterud. Het huis is van alle gemakken voorzien en staat in een prachtige omgeving. Het meertje, de dieren en de relaxte bank waren voor onze zoon (8 jaar) de hoogtepunten. De eigenaren zijn super vriendelijk en zorgen ervoor dat het je aan niets ontbreekt. De wilde bloemen en verse kruiden die op het aanrecht stonden, zorgden voor een warm welkom.
