Forest Cabins

4 stars

The picture-perfect Forest Cabins are tucked in amongst the trees on the Vestlia side of the resort. If you want the real Norway experience, then these are an absolute must – and how can you say no to a private sauna? We’ve a range of sizes – some sleeping up to 12 people – but they are such great value that they won’t break the bank for even small families or groups.Each of the cabins is spacious, with a large lounge area where you can put your feet up after a day on the mountain – plus a full kitchen to cook up a storm for dinner. You’re never far away from the slopes and ski school, which are an easy walk from all the cabins. When you make it back to your cosy retreat, you can relax in front of the fire or soothe sore muscles in the sauna. Eating out isn’t cheap but the supermarkets in town are great value and we’ll even include a grocery starter pack to get you going.If you’ve got any little ones who don’t want to ski, the kindergarten is right next to the cabins, so they really are ideal for families.
