Beautiful authentic house, with great view

The house is an old fashion house, but very well equipped! The view outside is beautiful and the walks in the area are wonderful. The weather was good and we could sit outside. The owner was very friendly and helpfull. If you like an authentic house with a quit area and beautiful view, this is a perfect house! We loved our stay there very much. Wim & Jeanet

A nice old house, a fine place to stay

A nice old house with enough space for us to stay. The house is old, but has everything you need to stay (although the washing machine is old, small and has low spinning so it takes some time to dry) and the wifi is poor. Lot's of opportunities for hiking in the area, and also to go with the ferry to the other side. The house is in Ortnevik (we thought it was in Bjordal) at the end of a road. Joar is a very friendly and helpfull guy, and is easy to reach. We recommend this house for a stay.

Een heerlijk huisje in een pittoresk dorpje. Zoals in de advertentie ook duidelijk is het schattig en wat ouder maar dat draagt bij aan de charme. Heel mooi huisje en Joar is altijd vriendelijk en helpend.

Oud huisje in prachtige omgeving

Het huis en de spullen zijn oud, je moet geen luxe verwachten. Joar is erg aardig, de kinderen mochten pruimen en kersen uit de tuin eten. Dat vonden ze erg leuk! De omgeving is prachtig, je kunt er mooie wandelingen maken. Het nadeel is wel dat de veerpont niet vaak naar de overkant vaart en dan moet je een flink stuk omrijden. Je moet daar wel goed rekening mee houden. veerpont

Die Hütte muss saniert werden

Wir fanden ein kleines Haus vor, das dringend entrümpelt und saniert werden muss. Es ist voll mit alten, verschlissenen Möbeln, aussortierten Elektronik- und Küchengeräten, teils Jahrzehnte alt. Dazu war es nicht sauber und das Bad roch unangenehm. Der Fernseher funktionierte nicht und die steile Holztreppe braucht ein sicheres Geländer. Es tut uns für den netten Gastgeber Leid, aber das Häuschen so nicht im Angebot bei FeWodirekt bleiben, als genaues Gegenteil der deutschen Werbung von FeWo direkt!

I am sad that you did not like the house. But the pictures and advert for this house, shows that it is an old house, and have old furniture. I do not recommend it for guests who is looking for a new and modern house.. In stead it is suitable for people who appreciate a quiet time in beautiful nature , and at an inexpensive price. The TV is actually working, but because of a new system, it is not online for a short time. My impression is that most of my guests are not that interested in TV in holiday time..but normally it works,_and will be in the future. The stairs are steep , but has railings on both sides. The bathroom is renovated a few years ago , and in my opinion was clean, and had a normal smell at the time you arrived . It may have changed during your stay - I do not know.

Ferie i ortnevig

Beliggenheden var rigtig fin men huset var simpelt hen for gammel sengene var dårlige og sengetøjet var bare ikke uorden. Det er en fin hytte til jagtfolk som vi kunne læse i gæstebogen de kom jo igen.

It's an old house with a variety of items and equipment from all decades. We liked it a lot. Everything was functional and Joar very helpful. Ortnevik is a pretty remote location but a beautifully situated one.

Schönes, altes Haus in einer ruhigen Umgebung mit toller Landschaft

Als Großstätter zum ersten mal im Land waren wir zuerst einmal skeptisch, ABER: nach kurzem Einleben war es für uns ein gemütliches, uriges Holzhaus mit viel Platz, einer guten Ausstattung (Waschmaschine, Wäschespinne, Spülmaschine, Küchengeräte, Geschirr), einer schönen Holzterrasse und tollen Blicken auf Fjord und Berge. Das geräumige Wohnzimmer hat auch für Abendunterhaltung etwas zu bieten was wir aber nicht brauchten. Der nette Vermieter war sehr hilfsbereit. Gerne hätten wir uns noch mehr mit ihm unterhalten, aber abends waren wir etwas müde von unseren Wanderungen. Für diese bietet die Umgebung sehr gute Ziele. Zu anderen Aktivitäten können wir nichts sagen, da wir sie nicht ausprobiert haben. Alles in allem sehr weiterzuempfehlen für diejenigen, die eher Ruhe statt Trubel suchen!

Beklagelig at Dere ikke likte huset. Vi mener informasjonen og bildene på nettsiden gir et realistisk inntrykk av huset. Dette er et gammelt hus, og hvis man vil bo i et nytt og moderne hus, er nok ikke dette det beste stedet... :-)

A lovely stay in beautiful surroundings

My wife and I had a lovely stay at Joar's home. The house is situated in perfect surroundings for anybody who is looking for a quiet retreat and beautiful, in fact, stunning nature. Joar and his wife were extremely helpful. They were right there for any question we had. Joar helped us a lot in planning our hikes. There is nothing like local knowledge. The home is simply furnished but has everything you need. And the fjord fills the view from the windows from every corner of the house.

Quiet and authentic stay in a beautiful place

Authentic, quiet house at a beautiful spot in a little village on the Sognefjord. The house is well equipped (dishwasher, oven, tv, dvd player etc). Some of it is a bit dated, but there is everything you need and the furniture and wallpapers from different time periods are also charming. You are staying on the farm of Joar and Ingrid who are very friendly and willing to help when you need anything. The area is quite remote, so you really need to bring your walking boots and trekking-poles to explore the mountains around the village. There's a gorgeous waterfall and some stunning viewpoints over the fjord and the village. Daytrips outside the village include Bergen (2,5 hrs by car), the lovely town of Vik with its beautiful Stave church (1,5 hrs by ferry), the Glaciers of Fjaerdal (30 mins by ferry and then another 2 hrs by car). But hiking in the mountains really is the main attraction here. Good value for money.

Nice place and house

The place was deep in a fyjord, surrounded by hills and sea. It was very quite and beautiful. There were several hiking courses which I learned from the owner. Though we had two small kids, we could easily select several hiking courses so that all of us enjoyed. Lakes hidden in the mountains are must-see-places. They are beautiful and quiet and almost mysterious. We visited Vik one day by ferry, which was a good tour of fyjord. The weather was mostly fine but it became quite cold in the morning. We enjoyed using a fire place in the house in the occasion. The stay was very relaxing.

About the host

Hosted by Owner

Host profile image
This is the house where my grandparents and kids lived, after they bought the farm in the early 1930`s.
Later my father took over , and from 1991 I took over this small farm.
This has been my home more or less my whole life, and I am pleased with that..:-)
Best regards Joar
