I was looking for a calm and decent living space for the 4 day long vacation without any expectation of proximity with the city center. However this place was not only peaceful with rustic beauty all around but also not too far from means to reach Oslo town if one would like to use public transport. We decided to use it the second day and it made us appreciate the nice walk along with the coast with boats lined on the side.
The island is small with restaurants and stores little more than 3.5 to 4 kms away in different directions but thats not an issue if one has the support of the car. The house is almost at the end of community and has a decent size space to park. As Torkell has mentioned, one has to take steps to reach the living area. The apartment is spacious for size of our group and it had all the amenities listed. The details are accurate and one gets to experience Norweigian climate and environment(though we were lucky to have sunny days). With glass doors and windows, one gets to know the Initial Summer days with sun poking at 4 30 am and day not ending till late 11 pm. Everything was well organized in Living room, bed rooms with sufficient and clean comforters and sheets. Kitchen is equipped with all the required equipments and being a family with small kid, we used all and everything was easy to use and neatly maintained. I hope we left the space as it was given and not done any mess for the host to clear. I would recommend this place for a decent size family looking to spend quality time away from city noise and pollution.
