We loved absolutely everything about this gem of a property: the location in a stunning natural environment, the adorable staff, the unique history and decor of the hotel full of collectible and heirloom furniture and, of course the wonderful dinner. Food certainly was a highlight as this is generally where Norway fails to impress us. We were served a fresh, creative, and delicious dinner in the beautiful dining room overlooking the fjell. The chef even adjusted the menu for the vegetarians among us, creating genuine new dishes for us. Wow! Again, that was unexpected as eating veg in Norway is often a challenge. Everything felt authentic and personal in this independently-run property. Dinner starts with a presentation of the history of the place by the owner, their struggles during Covid and how they overcame them. Charmingly, this introduction included the reading of a poem (sadly we don’t understand Norwegian so had to rely on the translation of the presentation afterwards). Every effort is made to be sustainable : There’s a vegetable garden, the delicious bread is baked on the premisses (we took a box of the amazing Flatbrød with us) and the lovely shop sells some local cheese, honey and other specialties including, this being Norway, sweets :) We are already dreaming of a next stay to the Tuddal Høyfjellshotel to experience more of its magic and of the stunning nature around it as our stay this time was way too short. Note to the owners: stay as you are, you are a genuine gem and the world needs more places like yours. Thank you for everything!

The hotel was located right outside town so it was easy to get to town and not be in the middle of the city. I loved the fact it was close to beautiful trails so you could go for a walk. It was close to all the facilities from the pools, skate rink and rope climbing areas. Great property! Also I really enjoyed the fact that we received both breakfast and dinner, very good food.

The cabins at Beverøya Hytteutleie og Camping are reasonably priced and met our needs perfectly. The reception staff member is Outstanding! She provided valuable information on local events and attractions and assisted us multiple times during our stay. Our cabin (#32) was clean and quiet. The facility is located off 36 (the main road), about a kilometer southeast of town. Bø is the perfect location for exploring Mid-Telemark. It features several grocery stores, a drugstore, numerous dining establishments, and multiple refueling locations.

Excellent place for a stay. Clean and well equipped facilities, warm cottage and friendly staff. The morning sun is really beautiful there. Superb activities for children as well - games, trampoline etc. and nice beach. Quite big place yet still peaceful as long as you do not mind a group of happy kids playing around here and there

The area was very quiet and all the local people were very friendly and welcoming. All those I met spoke very good English. Norway is a very beautiful unspoilt country with some stunning scenery. I would enjoy spending more time there. Public transport is excellent with booking / payment made quick and easy via the use of an app (and very cheap compared to the UK!). I should imagine that during high season, it would be fairly crowded (I was there in early October) when it was very quiet but the weather was still pleasant and sunny. Overall, I would recommend this as a very pleasant location to spend a few days.

A rather small but fun system, the main attraction for the more advanced skiier of course beeing Gaustatoppen which makes for a great adventure, both the access and the lines possible. Check the weather forecast and try to go at a sunny day. One of the best off pistes in the Nordics if the stars align.

Rjukan as a town has a fascinating history.

Rjukan as a town has a fascinating history. However the reason we come is to ice climb. Obviously, this is a niche attraction and Ice climbers will know why Rjukan. However, the history and beauty plus accessibility of venues is world class for this activity. Beyond the climbing, Rjukan is an interesting town with all the main amenities one could need as a base for exploring the amazing countryside in which it sits.

A beautiful place to visit and have a look around. A few nice places you could eat, I tried the little restaurant next to where I stayed at Hytteby. The town is easy to get around as there is mostly one street that goes all the way through. The fact that Norways oldest cablecart (krossbannen) was there was really nice and I did take a trip up and the view was amazing.

We came from Sweden for a extended weekend and wanted to get 2 full days of skiing, which we did! The ski slopes are a good mix of easy and gentle to a little more challenging, yet all fun and well maintained. All the operating staff were very helpful and pleasant. The resort is small in terms of amenities (only a few restaurants and bars - but all of good standard!) but more than enough for a cosy stay! It has a very relaxed atmosphere and very picturesque location. A lot of cross- country facilities and possibilities to explore the winter outdoors. Highly recommend for a families and individuals alike who come for the outdoors! The only downside is depending on where you are staying you may need a car to get around. There are few walkways unless you are on skies so for those that don't ski you have to stay close to the lodge or have a cosy cabin where you plan to spend a lot of time.
