Very nice guest house!☺️ We felt very comfortable. The house is cosily furnished, has everything you need and even a hot tub outside. There was food in the fridge which we used to prepare a delicious breakfast. I can well imagine that on clear nights you can see the northern lights very well.

Comfy and good nights sleep!

Stayed one night only. Came in late and went early morning after. Very clean and comfy small room. Very quiet and good nights sleep. Cosy and lovely feel, as walking through grandmas house. Self service breakfast and coffee was very nice early in the morning. Enough choices for light breakfast. Had a nice chat with other guests, in the living room before departure :) Very homey feel. There was a hot tub and grill outside which we did not have a change to use, but looked nice. Environment beautiful with the winter sunrise in the morning.

Worth it!

Accomodation smells fresh & clean. There are extra towels in the bathroom, free coffee and tea. Hot tub with a view, if you like to take a warm bath. Water comes from a natural source via drill hole. Owner lives across the street and is available for further questions. You wake up to a stunning view ❤️.

Simple stay on a horse farm with all amenities you need

The guesthouse is well-managed, you check in on your own, and you can use all of the amenities on your own, including the hot tub, which we enjoyed, you also make your own breakfast, which is a novel approach, but actually works quite well.

well equipped, good common area, calm.

We are family of 4 and stayed in a family room. it was a bit tight as there was a bunk bed to accommodate the whole family. although, it was ok for one night and we spent the rest of the time in the common area. the guest house was well equipped, including washing machine and a drier that was really a big plus after several days of travelling.
