"What can we say about this little gem... Firstly, my hate goes to Kate and Odd for how accommodating they made us feel - nothing was too much trouble for them and went beyond the call of duty on more than one occasion (come to that part later!) Secondly, the cottage itself is a romantic setting with a lake view worthy of a 5 star hotel. The bed is ridiculously comfortable (just try getting out of it in the morning!), the bathroom is nicely laid out and functional and also plenty of character offered by random ornate items. The wood burning fire is a great feature of this cottage, with the heated floor being a nice bonus. Very clean as well. All-in-all, you couldnt ask for more in a cottage! Service-wise, Kate provided a good selection for our breakfast each day (enough for a 'paradise omelette') and anything like dinner could be requested. Value-wise, you will struggle to find better priced accommodation near to Oslo for what is on offer here (I checked over 50 various options and this came out best). No extra charges for linen/towels as well. And finally, as I have said, Kate & Odd have hearts of gold.. our hire car found itself in a ditch and they came to our rescue with a tow. Their patience and 'Norwegian Spirit' will not be forgotten! Thanks for our 1st Christmas together and our best one yet!! Kristina & Ricky "
