Private Villa for 15, Hot Tub, Sauna & Boat – Near Preikestolen
Rogaland, Rogaland, Norway
The cellar lounge offers something different again: a grown-up retreat with a wood-burning fireplace, deep sofas and a built-in wine wall behind glass sliding doors. Ideal for late evenings, after the kids have gone to bed.
A Hartley Botanic greenhouse in the garden
In the garden stands an authentic Hartley Botanic greenhouse — handcrafted in England by the same maker that has supplied greenhouses to Highgrove and Kew Gardens. A quiet place for morning coffee or an evening glass of wine, whatever the weather. Guests are welcome to pick fresh herbs and vegetables when in season.
Sleeping arrangements
The villa sleeps up to 12 adults in proper beds across five bedrooms and an open loft bedroom. Additional sleeping arrangements can be made available when needed, allowing up to 15 guests in total. A fixed crib is ready in the villa; an additional travel cot can be provided on request.
