Beautiful Cottage with the most incredible view

We stayed the week in Urke for hiking and kayaking, we LOVED the cottage, it was beautifully designed, spacious living spaces and the full length balcony was perfect for soaking in the most incredible view of the fjord.

The house is spacious and very comfortable with three bedrooms. It is located up the hill just below the forest and fully equipped. It provides opportunity to sit outside, under the roof, and grill or enjoy the fresh air. There is a beautiful view from the kitchen and living room. Good location for fishing and holiday stay. We have stayed over there for almost two weeks and really enjoyed despite sometimes having bad weather. The owner is helpful and supportive. It is also easy to use the ferry to Saebo or next big town Orsta.

Captivating

An indescribably beautiful place with an enchanting view of the fjord and the majestic mountains. We had an unforgettable stay in the wonderful cottage and explored the local area and other places such as Loen and Gejranger. Highly recommended.

Stunning Long House Cottage in the Sky

What a wonderful place to spend 7 days & nights. Done a fair bit of driving through the Fjords over a couple of trips and the road up to Urke and our final destination takes some beating. Amazing place. An added bonus was getting out onto the Fjord on the boat that comes with wth cottage. Thank you Thorunn for all your help and advice which all added to making it an unforgettable few days.

This is a truly special place. We stayed for a week and didn’t want to leave. The pictures doesn’t do the views justice. This is by far our favourite place we ever stayed at. And the owner Torunn was lovely and answered our questions in a fast manner. Also really appreciate to be able to bring pets along. Can’t say anything else but thank you.

Amazing Stay!

We had a most wonderful stay! It felt like home away from home. The cottage had everything we could possibly need and was spotlessly clean. We loved boating and fishing on the fjord. Our favorite fjord on our trip and we saw many! Such a magical place to visit! The owners are great! They are friendly and helpful. We would love to come back and stay again!!!

Perfection!

Such a wonderful stay, this house is really something very special. Great architectural design, great art within the house. Everything on the kitchen you could need. Plenty of towels, bedding, cleaning bits. Not forgetting the outstanding view, I sat in amazement everyday, watching the ever changing light and reflections on water. We have great fun on the boat, visited lots of places nearby. I hope we will be able to come again on our next visit to Norway.

Fabulous cottage on the fjord!

We spent two weeks in this fabulous cottage in July. The photos on the website are accurate in terms of the cottage itself, but can't do justice to the outstanding view. The cottage was very clean, bright and comfortable, with everything we needed, including a good sized fridge and freezer. We cooked in the cottage every day and found the facilities for this to be excellent. The bed was very comfortable and there were plenty of spare sheets and towels. We took the boat out a couple of times to fish, but found that we had just as much luck fishing off the pier near the coffee shop and bar - we caught and ate a lot of fish in Urke. We mainly went to Urke to hike in the mountains and we were not disappointed. We hiked many of the trails, including Slogan, Saksa, Leknesnakken, patchellhytta, klokksegga and a few further afield. We found most of the trails in this area to be well marked, if a bit muddy and rocky in places, but enjoyed the hiking very much. The supermarket in the town is small, but adequate for most needs, but didn't have anything gluten free, if like me you need to eat that way - we had stocked up before we got to Urke, so it didn't matter. There is also a small shop selling locally grown tomatoes, cucumbers and if you are lucky, strawberries, although we were never there at the right time. Communication with Torunn was excellent from start to finish. I highly recommend this property.

Sehr schönes Haus, in großartiger Umgebung. Das Haus ist toll ausgestattet, aber manches ist etwas älter und die Fotos sind nicht mehr ganz aktuell. Sauberkeit war ein Thema bei uns, aber die Vermieterin hat sich bei allen Themen gut gekümmert.

Urlaub in traumhafter Lage

Wir hatten in unseren zwei Wochen JEDEN Tag Regen. Am Anfang immerhin noch öfter mit etwas Sonnenschein. Von den Temperaturen her war es auch schon recht herbstlich. Trotzdem hat es uns super gefallen! Der Blick auf den Fjord, den das Haus bietet ist einmalig. Ich hätte stundenlang einfach nur auf den Fjord hinausschauen können. Das Haus war sehr sauber und mit allem bestens ausgestattet (Geschirr, Handtücher, Bettwäsche). Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt! Die Umgebung ist einfach sehenswert und die Fahrt durch das Tal Norangdalen immer ein Highlight. Auch mit dem Boot haben wir unsere Runden auf dem Fjord gedreht, schön, dass das möglich war! Wir würden definitiv das Haus wieder buchen. Vielleicht gibt es in der Zukunft auch noch eine Wallbox, das würde es noch etwas einfacher machen. 😉

Die Aussicht ist genial

Die Aussicht von der Terrasse könnte nicht schöner und imposanter sein!! Das Haus ist doch sehr in die Jahre gekommen und die Sauberkeit lässt zu wünschen übrig. Die Auffahrt könnte besser gepflegt werden und es sollten auch kein Bootsträger in der sehr steilen Auffahrt gelagert werden.

Einfach traumhaft!

Wir haben zwei wunderbar erholsame Wochen in Thrallheimen verbringen dürfen und möchten uns ganz herzlich bei Torunn für ihre Gastfreundschaft, ihre Erreichbarkeit und natürlich für ihr unglaubliches Haus, das wir nutzen durften, bedanken. Thrallheimen ist ein unvergesslich schönes Haus, das alles bietet, was man braucht. Wir haben den Ausblick, der sich ständig verändert, je nachdem wie die Wolken und die Sonne stehen, so genossen. Es fehlte uns an nichts. Urke ist ein ganz besonderes Fleckchen Erde und wir waren bestimmt nicht zum letzten Mal dort. Thrallheimen können wir allen, die einen unvergesslichen Urlaub verbringen möchten, nur empfehlen.

Schönes Haus in toller Lage!

Das Haus liegt sehr ruhig, fast im letzten Dorf an dieser Straße, anschließend kommt nur noch die Fähre. Es gibt alles, was man im Urlaub benötigen könnte. Die Aussicht ist spektakulär und exakt so wie auf den Bildern. Wir haben viele Tagesausflüge unternommen. Man muss sich nur gewahr sein, dass die einzuplanenden Fahrzeiten sehr viel länger sind als bei vergleichbaren Entfernungen in Deutschland. Aber wen das nicht stört, der ist hier richtig. Wie haben unsere zwei Augustwochen hier sehr genossen.

Das Haus lässt keine Wünsche offen, die Lage ist einmalig und der Komfort ebenfalls. Die transparente Architektur gibt einem das Gefühl, überall im Haus mitten in der Natur hoch über dem Fjord zu sein.

Traumhafter Blick auf den Fjord

Den traumhaften Blick auf den Fjord hat man sogar vom Bett aus. Wohnraum und Küche bieten eine wunderschöne Aussicht. Es gibt viele Ausflugsmöglichkeiten, u.a. eine direkt vor Ort abgehende Fähre nach Ålesund. Wanderungen können vom Haus aus gestartet werden und eine schöne Badestelle am Fjord ist in der Nähe. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt!
