Andersbu - Holiday in the heart of Norway

The cabin is situated idyllic and sunny at the foot of the Andersnatten (733m) within sight (150m) of the lake Andersnattjenn. Nearby there are many lakes for fishing and the area is perfect for gathering berries and mushrooms. The accommodation is suitable for couples, solo travelers as well as families with children.

The cozy cabin (60m2) consists of a large living room with kitchen, 3 bedrooms, bathroom and corridor. The house is equipped for 6 adults. The living room has a couch corner and dining table as well as a kitchen line. The small kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals and is equipped with a gas cooker and a sink (no running water). A gas-operated refrigerator is located in the storage room.
The bathroom has a sink (no running water), a simple cottageshower and an environmental toilet from the company Separett (villa).
The beds are divided as follows.
Bedroom 1: double bed (130cm), bedroom 2: family koye (lower bed: 0,8m, upper bed: 0,8m), Bedroom 3: family koye (lower bed 1,20m, upper bed: 0,6m). The cabin has a 12V electrical system. Each room is equipped with lights and sockets. All 12V devices can be used. (celphone, tablet, laptop etc.) 220V units can be connected via a petrol unit if required. (max 4h per day) There is an extra 220V outlet in the living room.. The heating is provided by a chimney, a stove and a paraffin oven in the living room and a gas oven in the bathroom.
In the cabin there is no running water, but a central water system from the hot and cold water at all points of sale (kitchen, bathroom) is available. A central water tank must be filled by hand. The water is brought from a source with hand pump, which is situated behind the cabin.

In front of the cabin is a large sun terrace with seating and a fire place. Wood to make fire costs 150Nkr for a 60 liter sack. (price can change)

There is very poor coverage in the cottage but there is WiFi via mobile broadband. If you want access, the following prices apply:

10GB 179, -
20GB 229, -

Data package can be ordered in advance.

We are speaking Norwegian, English and German.

Our guests have access to all rooms in the cabin.

Because we are living about 1 hour away from the cabin it will seldom be possible for me to receive the guests personally. The key for the cabin is in a key safe. I will send the code before arrival. Otherwise, can you always reach me by phone / SMS or via homeaway.

We don`t provide bedlines or towles at the cottage.

You can park with your car at a roundabout at Andersnattjenn. From there it is about 250m to the cabin to walk.(se picture) The way up to the cabin is a tollroad. The fee is 60Nkr. The fee can be payed at www.youpark.no until 48 hours after you passed the road. If you don't pay within 48 hours you will get an invoice at home. NB! If the invoice is sending at home you have to expect an extra fee.

The cottage is only accessible by car.

Truly incredible experience
I spent a week with my young family at Andersbu in January and we had the most amazing time. Besides the breathtaking landscape and surrounds, the cabin itself is great. Homely, well built and very functional. The heating and water systems setup by Stefan are modern and more than you could ask for and the place is very comfortable. We had a blast playing in snow, going for walks and exploring the local area. Stefan responds to all messages within minutes and was always super-helpful. We are so grateful for the experience we had and for being able to share Stefan’s amazing cabin. Will definitely hope to come back!

tolle Auszeit in wunderbarer Umgebung
Die Lage der Hütte ist traumhaft. In unmittelbarer Nähe beginnen tolle Wanderwege. Mehrere schöne Seen sind einfach erreichbar. Man kann vor allem Forellen angeln, den Angelschein gibt es sehr preisgünstig unten am Berg beim Bauern. Der Gastgeber Stefan gab uns vorab schon wichtige Informationen bezüglich der Einreise nach Norwegen. Außerdem hat er uns alternative Stornierungsoptionen aufgrund der Pandemie-Lage geboten. Das Internet-Paket haben wir glücklicherweise nicht dazu gebucht. Denn in dieser Hütte hat man mal die Möglichkeit sich auf die einfachen Sachen zu besinnen und die Informationsflut zu bremsen. Man hört kaum Geräusche und kann mal so richtig abschalten. Man sollte aber wissen, dass man sich bei dieser Art von Unterkunft ordentlich bewegen wird (Wasser pumpen und tragen, Weg vom Parkplatz hoch zur Hütte). Den Luxus lässt man mal zu Hause, um so schöner, wenn man ihn dann wieder hat. Die Hütte war aber vor allem abends mit Kamin und Kerzen sehr gemütlich. Es gab eigentlich alles an Kleinkram-Ausstattung, die man in so einer Hütte braucht. Kühlschrabk und Ofen funktionieren einwandfrei mit Gas. Kaffee haben wir mit einer French-Press gemacht. Ich empfehle viel geeignete Bekleidung für Regen mitzunehmen, vor allem mehrere Schuhpaare, denn auch der Gang zur Pumpe kann bei Regen sehr nass und matschig werden. Ich war froh über meine Gummistiefel. Insgesamt ein wunderbarer Urlaub, den wir gerne in Erinnerung behalten.
