Hoyanger Saebotjorna Lake Hotels

"This is a lovely spot.  The cabin is set into the side of a ridge with forest at the back.  The front wall of windows and deck look out about a kilometer, over fields and the village, to the Sognefjord.  During our stay with our teenaged granddaughter in early June, the wildflowers were everywhere, and the forest was  a misty J.R.R. Tolkien landscape of thick moss, crags, rocks, crevices and rivulets.  Great hiking out the door in every direction, and, even on a drizzly day, the anticipation of a cozy return.  The heated floors are delightful.  Much thought went into the cabin's layout, with touches including carvings, a gnarly stump supporting the kitchen counter, and stairs to the loft hewn out of a single log.Ortnevik is off the beaten path, at the end of a narrow road from Bjordal to the west.  That is an appealing reason to visit this part of Hoyanger.  But, the visitor should realize that ferries are more limited on the weekend, the small local store is often closed, and no nearby cafes.  So, a good idea to pick up supplies on the way and double check the ferry schedule.   Our time here was the highlight of our trip to Norway."

"This is a great place for a fishing trip. It also has an amazing location and view. Amenities are limited, and you are required to do a lot when you leave."

"Prachtige omgeving, maar je moet wel van sportieve wandelingen houden. Je kunt een heel mooie boottrip maken over de Fjord naar Vik. Aardige verhuurders! Wel tanken voor dat je er naar toe rijdt! In het dorpje is om de dag de buurtsuper open."

"Nice, simple property. Be warned there is a significant walk up a steep hill to get to the cabin from your car, so prepare with luggage accordingly. We had a nice stay for two nights. There is plenty around to explore, especially if you rent a car.. "

"Owners are very nice and hospitable. Location has a beautiful view and both breakfast and dinner was fresh made by owners. Place is clean and rooms are taken care of although hotel is slightly dated. However the friendly owners make up for the outdated building and the atmosphere was friendly and comfortable."
