Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Stranda Municipality

What a wonderful home away from home for a long weekend! The house is part of two different worlds - one the rural Norway of the past and the other very much the present. Being on a working dairy farm also made us reflect on the sources of our food and how much we take for granted day-to-day. We enjoyed convenient access to kayaking, hiking, cruising the fjord by ferry to Geiranger, and cooking local foods in the well-appointed kitchen. Special thanks to Synnove for fresh home-baked bread and sending on our way with slices of cake for the journey.

Martins place is amazing. We felt immediately like home and having the cozy fireplace in the main room was very nice. Everything was super clan and well in order, the beds were comfy and we had everything we needed, except a hairdryer at the beginning, but Martin organized immediately that someone brought us a brand new one the next day. We were blessed with 180 cm snow within our one week stay and with spectacular polar lights which we observed on the upper terrace on New Year’s Eve as well as on the day after. Our main activity during our stay was to go ski at the Strandafiellet ski resort only a 10 minute drive up the mountain, which we also can highly recommend. Martin was super responsive and helpful when we were in need (we got stuck in the snow with our car a view times) and directed us for the best route back to Oslo on the snowy winter roads. We highly recommend Martins place and we would love to come back some day.

Randi is an amazing host. We didn’t actually meet, but felt she was extremely hospitable from multiple text exchanges. Her home is so classic Norwegian. It is, as she said, the home she grew up in. She and her husband built a home nearby on the acreage. The home is very spacious and would easily serve the needs of several family members (We were two!) Note that the setting is a few miles from the small village of Hellesylt, the launch point for the ferry to Geiranger. In that sense it is perfect, but you will need to have a vehicle. We ended up taking two trips to Geiranger. The setting for her home is utterly spectacular, one of the most beautiful sites we’ve ever stayed. Highly recommend.

Everything was great. Spacious and with very good views.

It’s a very nice home located nearby water surrounded by mountains. It contains everything that is required in a household. We loved it. Highly recommended.

We had a wonderful stay. The house is beautiful with huge windows overlooking the scenery. Would definitely recommend.

a very nice and cozy place to stay for relaxation. And a nice host :)

Cozy apartment located right by the water. Lovely summer and winter 🙂

Nice apartment near Stranda Ski Resort.

A wonderful place to come and stay. The views were spectacular and unlike anything we’d seen before. There were lots of opportunities for hiking, relaxing and getting away from all the hustle and bustle. I would highly recommend and would definitely come again. Monika and her family were extremely friendly and made us feel at home. The only thing I would do differently is hire a car as it is quite remote. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

We had a wonderful stay with our two kids. The hosts were very helpful and responsive with any questions we had. Beautiful view of the fjord and the mountains. Close to many beautiful hiking and sight-seeing opportunities. The house was wonderful and included everything we needed for a relaxing visit. Would definitely recommend to others.

A spacious apartment with a terrace, fireplace and wonderful views of the Fjord mountains. Impeccably clean, with everything you need for a good stay. Comfortable beds and good linens. Martin is an exceptional host, he was always in contact with us giving us tips for a good arrival and accommodation. I highly recommend it.

Gunn is awesome, she helped us find our way because of road closures. Very quick to respond and very welcoming. The house was very nice and clean with all the luxury from home. It's a nice place to start hikes, you can easily walk to the town center if you don't mind going up some stairs. At one of the hikes we even got engaged during our stay here.

We had a very nice time at the cottage with 8 guests. Nice location and good comfort in the cabin. Good standard and good facilities. Communication with the host was great :)

A beautiful view with lots of outdoor sitting spaces to enjoy it too! We were a group of 10 and had plenty of space to spread out.

I had a wonderful stay. The house is perfect and exceeds the description. Thanks a lot!

Such an amazing location in Olden and we loved being right on the water. Couldn’t think of a better place to stay. We loved spending time outside in the jacuzzi and using the fire pit. The town is nearby and the home included everything we needed.

Great house in Ålesund!

The house is very cozy and spacious, the view is priceless, and Mr. Olav is very helpful and kind. It was a wonderful experience, and I highly recommend the place.

Fantastic place to stay with amazing views.

We have been very happy to stay in the house. It was cozy and everything worked as it should. There are a lot of nice hiking opportunities right from the house.

We had a great time in Valldal. Plenty nearby activities, nature, hikes and amazing views. Especially the view from the house to the fjord (while being in the hot tub) was stunning. The house provides everything you need, even some fruits you can pick in the garden. All 8 of us enjoyed our time in Valldal.
