The atmosphere felt like a yurt, which was great. Unfortunately, the road in was terrible and we bottomed out our car a few times; knowing this beforehand would have let us prepare better.

The yurt itself would have earned a perfect score – the tent looked gorgeous, the furnishings were fantastic and staying there felt unique, plus the included breakfast offered excellent items that filled the fridge bag, and the view from the hilltop was spectacular, although we didn’t get to enjoy it much because the weather turned against us. We lit the stove because it was very cold, loved sitting by the fire and felt the atmosphere became magical. I’d definitely recommend the experience, but the bathroom situation and the climb up the hill need careful consideration. The yurt we got sat on the hill, isolated from the other two and about 80 m from the toilets, which are actually beside the two lower yurts – a fact I hadn’t realized when booking, so anyone needing a bathroom, especially at night, has to step outside the yurt, trek down through tall grass and then climb back up in the dark, which is impossible on a cold, rainy night. You have to park five minutes away from the lower yurts and then make another uphill walk to the hilltop yurt, all on a path through high grass, which is far from pleasant with any luggage in rain and wind. I’d suggest the owners improve the overall site, maintain the lawns, trails and outdoor tables better, and most importantly add a toilet next to the hilltop yurt.

The silence and sense of safety inside the yurt were wonderful, the location was perfect with my own car from the airport, and it was a real treat to splash in the crystal‑clear pool while being the only guests around (the nearest village was two places away). The view over the fjord was stunning. However, the three yurts were spaced about 20 m apart, the breakfast was sparse, and on bad weather you need to be ready for a 150‑m uphill walk from the parking spot to the yurt plus another 20 m to the toilets; the parking area could also be marked more clearly.
