Rorbu i Gilsvågen - 3 soverom - Båtutleie

The cabin is in a great quiet area. With short walks to some amazing hikes. It is one of a set of cabins (they don’t all belong to same landlord) and the area itself has other cabins that seem to be used for vacations. It is spotlessly clean and looks quite new. All amenities were very much new and it’s fully equipped with everything you need including a drip coffee machine, a sealed coffee pack and filters. There is also a washing machine and a full-size fridge. Perfect for a family of 5 (maybe more if some are willing to sleep on the couch or in the attic). There is a single free car park available and I did notice an electric charger as well (not sure if you can use it so better ask). Andreas (who we did not meet but only spoke to) was available 24x7 on-call for anything needed. I would not hesitate to book this cabin again in the future if traveling with a family.

On our second day we encountered ants in the room. Being spring and that we decided to switch on the heat pump maybe drew the ants in. Tho not acceptable (because there were ALOT of ants) it is often expected in rural areas and such privately hosted places. Andreas offered us to stay in the cabin next to it which was equally good so no harm done. The only other thing is the cabin only has curtains on the windows in bedrooms. All those facing the lake (or in the back door) do not have curtains and leave too much for privacy. Even the ground floor sitting area with the tv has windows with no curtains and people staying in other cabins walk back and forth. It’s Scandinavia and people value their privacy very much so I hope the hosts add more curtains in the future.
