What a lovely home this is! Clean, contemporary, stylish Scandinavian design throughout. Everything from the furniture and layout, to colors and decor was relaxing and comfortable. The house looks just like in the photos and is exactly as described.
Cathrin's place was very clean, spacious, and had everything our family of 7 needed for our weeklong stay. We appreciated that we could cook and eat meals in the kitchen and dining room or back yard. We also enjoyed the swing and the use of the driveway. Most of all, we loved the many outlets in every part of the house because we each had a laptop to use or cell phone to charge.
The house is in a safe, quiet family neighborhood and has a gated driveway. It is close to a train station, groceries, park, and a mall. It is in a great location in Oslo where you can easily access other sites by foot, bike, car or train. We had a rental vehicle and were able to visit all the sites in Oslo city center. Our day trip to/from Stegastein Lookout to see Sognefjord was 5 hours and to/from Bergen is 8 hours.
From day 1, Cathrin was a gracious host and great communicator. She gave very clear instructions about the home and gave good recommendations for nearby places to visit. We are grateful for this home and for Cathrin's hospitality. Highly recommend!
TIPS: 1-Bring your own European transformer(s) for electronics and small appliances. 2-This is a family's home - treat with care and respect.
