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.

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.

    Our stay at Andersbu was unforgettable, offering the perfect blend of solitude and comfort. The basic amenities fit our needs, and we loved the cozy atmosphere. The location was ideal for hiking, both directly from the house as well as only a short car drive away. The host was incredibly helpful and communicative, ensuring that we had everything we needed, both before and during our stay. We highly recommend this cozy retreat for anyone seeking a peaceful getaway.

    If you are looking for a comfortable cabbin in the mountains, with a great view and comfort, this is the one! We have spend a week here with our two boys (7 & 4 years old). The cabbin has everything you can think of and is in very good state. We hiked the beautiful surroundings, cooked on the fireplace, went to the animalpark in Fla and above all enjoyed the fabulous nature by simply looking out the window. On our last day, we have crossed paths with an Elk on the road up the mountain. We have seen a good part of Norway, but this location really went above and beyond our expectations. The same goes for the owner: he took care of us entering a nice and warm cabbin (we arrived on a cold afternoon, late april), made sure we were enjoying ourselves and was always kindly standing by for answering questions and gave good suggestions for activities. The cabbin is located at a small and quiet site with a few other cabbins around the lake, where a track up Andersnatten-hill starts. Multiple other hiking paths are in the area and good maps are found inside the cabin. We will surely come back to this beautiful area and cabbin one day :)

    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!
