Farm stay in Hole

Las kvegas

ArchanaRating, 5 stars5 months ago
Nils and Mette are absolutely lovely people. The cabin is on a beautiful farm with a view of the fjord, very dreamy and beautiful. We had a lovely time there and would love to go back some day. It is quiet, relaxing and a perfect place to unwind. I highly recommend their cabin. They also let us use their other cabin to chill which was right next to the fjord - perfect sunny day for fjord swimming. And yes - the fresh chicken eggs were pure nostalgia for us because it is so rare to get them in cities.

Penthouse apartment with panoramic view (incl. parking)

DanielaRating, 5 stars5 months ago
There were two of us staying at the property for three nights. Everything was exactly as shown on the pictures and description. The contact with Camilla was always very friendly and she responded within a few minutes. We immediately felt comfortable at the place. Despite the proximity to the center, it was not too noisy. The center of Oslo is easily accessible in about 15-20 minutes by metro or scooter. Everything you needed was available in the accommodation and more. The bed and sofa were very comfortable and the balcony with the view over Oslo was an absolute highlight. We are more than satisfied and would return to this apartment again for our next stay in Oslo.

Cozy cabin 3 meters from lake Lyseren, near Oslo

LucieRating, 5 stars4 days ago
Tobias's cabin is a real little cocoon, the view is magnificent and the layout is very nice. We stayed a short time but had trouble leaving the accommodation as it is so warm. Tobias is an extremely responsive host, at any time of day. The video projector is a real asset, even if its remote didn't work when we came; Tobias gave us a solution very quickly.

My boyfriend and I have been to Norway for the first time and very happy with this accommodation. Wonderfully quiet and beautiful surroundings. Anikken was easily accessible and was quick to respond. Especially very helpful and thoughtful, we got a lot of tips from her. We have felt very much at home here partly because of the hospitality. The cottage was also clean, cozy and equipped with everything you needed :)

Panoramic view of the Oslo fjord. Proximity to Oslo

SamRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We stayed in this apartment for around 6 months during 2024 whilst working in Oslo for some time. The apartment is very nice and had everything we needed. The large balcony with sea view was definitely a special feature, especially during the longer summer evenings. Located in a very nice suburban neighbourhood of the city, close to public transport connections to the city centre, and shops, local town centre. Morten and Metere are excellent hosts, very friendly and more than happy to help us with everything we asked for!

Your guide to Oslo

All About Oslo

Oslo is a perfect destination for outdoor lovers. The Norwegian capital is one of the greenest cities in the world — two-thirds of it are designated protected natural areas, and its bike-friendly city center is emulated throughout Europe. You can swim in the fjord right from the city center, or get lost in one of its massive city parks. The Oslo Harbour Promenade meshes nature with urban living, with converted warehouses and cultural institutions like the Norwegian Opera and Ballet just steps from the cool waters of Sørenga Beach, where locals take plunges on summer days.

Oslo is home to a number of historical buildings, including the Oslo Cathedral and the Nobel Peace Center, and there’s no shortage of world-class museums here. Take the ferry to Bygdøy, where you’ll find the Fram Museum of polar exploration, the Munch Museum, and the Norwegian Museum of Cultural History, an open-air living museum.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Oslo

Thanks to its northerly latitude, Norway is known as the Land of the Midnight Sun. Even as far south as Oslo, the sun doesn’t set until around 11 p.m. at the end of June, which means that visitors head to this capital city from June to August to make the most of the longer days and the warmer temperatures. During fall and winter, temperatures dip below freezing, days are short and dark, and Oslo is blanketed in snow, a perfect time to visit museums or the Holmenkollen Ski Jump on the outskirts of the city, particularly during the Holmenkollen Ski Festival in March. At Christmas, the city is illuminated with holiday decorations and hosts several Christmas markets with food stalls, crafts, gifts, and all-ages entertainment.


Top things to do in Oslo

Vigeland Sculpture Park

This green urban oasis with a fountain at its heart contains 200 sculptures by a famous Norwegian artist that are made from bronze, granite, and cast iron. At the highest point in the park, you’ll find a staggering monolith, carved from one block of granite and standing 55 feet tall, that features 121 intertwined human figures clinging to one another.

Norwegian Museum of Cultural History

Take a journey back in time at this open-air living museum featuring 160 buildings from all over the country that have been reconstructed on site. It’s a fantastic spot for exploring the history of Norway, dating back as far as the 13th century with the Gol Stave Church, which has its own museum and exhibition halls showcasing Norwegian culture.

Oslo fjord cruise

Water is the reason Oslo was founded, and one of the best ways to see the city is from the fjord itself. A fjord cruise takes you around some of the many islands and bays and past the Dyna Lighthouse. You’ll catch great views along the shoreline of the city’s modern architecture of the Barcode Project in the city center, as well as the beaches on the Bygdøy peninsula.
