“An interesting and welcoming place to stay for a few days in Bergen.”
A lovely old house within walking distance (20 mins) of central Bergen. Bus stop and shop almost next door. Parking nearby (use the EasyPark App). Although a small house everything you need is there with very good and thorough information left by the hosts.

Loved this charming place. I felt like I'd gone back in history. We unfortunately used Google maps to find the address and it took us a long way around but we certainly got to see the city and got good exercise pulling our suitcases. Always a positive to every situation 😁

The house is absolutely charming and modern, but preserving the character of the original building. Really clever adaption. There are lots of great touches that make staying here comfortable and easy. It is.an easy.walk to the city.

Lovely house in a pleasant, quiet area. The house is old but is very well fitted out with modern appliances. Great recommendations from owners regarding local walks/bars/bakery. Supermarket next door.

“Great quirky traditional house”
Fun! Very quirky little traditional house with everything we needed. Kitchen amazingly well kitted out considering size and age of property. Soap, dishwasher tablets, washing machine and detergent, shower gel and shampoo, some basics in the kitchen. Ideal for a couple but worked for a family of 3 for a couple of nights due to comfy sofa bed. Parking right beside (paying - use the Bergen parking app, there are no signs indicating it being a paying car park!), mini-market and bus stop - very easy to go into town either by bus or a 20 odd minute walk. Easy access to the house with a code so no key to contend with. Excellent contact from hosts and clear information provided. Didn't realise the house was surrounded by other buildings. Not an issue as such but not obvious from the photo as you would expect it was on a street.

“Cosy Norwegian Experience”
This house is beautiful. Cosy, characterful and really adds to the Norwegian experience! The kitchen is well stocked with cooking equipment and the house is super clean and comfy YET old, wonky and truly memorable! The bedroom is lovely, the shop is close by and it’s a very nice 20ish minute stroll from the centre of Bergen. Hosts were amazing on communication too!

When entering the house, I've instantly fell in love with the nice timber smell of the house. Smells like a sauna in there. Very cozy. Very cute.

We had a wonderful stay at this small and cozy house. It truly felt like a home, with everything well-arranged for a comfortable experience. The flexible check-in was a big plus, making the arrival process smooth and stress-free. The location was excellent—very close to the city center, with a bus stop just a 2-minute walk away. Additionally, the nearby Joker store, also just 2 minutes away, was a great convenience. The host was excellent, providing clear and detailed instructions on how to reach the property, which was incredibly helpful. We highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a warm and hassle-free stay!

“Perfect”
Everything if you want to experience the authentic Bergen then this is for you. It was minus 8 outside and the house was lovely and warm extremely clean and everything you needed to make it at home from home. The local shop called the joker was a 2 min walk from the property and so was the bus stop. You could walk to the centre of Bergen within 20 mins it was perfect !!

“Great location, 20 minute walk into Bergen, quirky and novel accomodation.”
We enjoyed this quirky and historic building in a great location only a few bus stops from Central Bergen. The cottage had every modern facility we needed and we felt very comfortable and welcome. The nearby supermarket is very convenient, nearby BOD 24 coffee and cold water plunge is a "must visit".

Fabulous house (our 6-year-old daughter said she would like to live there for ever) with everything we needed, including extremely comfortable beds. Great location within easy reach of the centre and excellent walking routes. Friendly, helpful hosts.
