The holiday home with a terrace and sea views has 4 bedrooms, a living room, a flat-screen TV, an equipped kitchen with a dishwasher and an oven, and 1 bathroom with a shower. Guests can take in the ambience of the surroundings from an outdoor dining area or keep themselves warm by the fireplace on colder days. This holiday home is allergy-free and non-smoking.

Based on just the view from the deck of this house, the rating is worth a 10. Loved sitting on the deck and looking at the harbor. Nice, big place (designed for much larger groups - we were just 2 people) with lots of room and comfort. Big TV. Clean, with excellent facilities. Very well equipped. Loved the isolation and solitude, despite being above what appears to be a busy roadway. Bedrooms were very quiet. Be aware that you will have to carry luggage up a short gravel path to the house. This was one of the best places we stayed while in Norway for a month.

Set in Arendal, within 17 km of The Ibsen House, Båthus med egen stor brygge og alle fasiliteter offers accommodation with free WiFi, air conditioning and a private beach area. Guests can benefit from a patio and an outdoor fireplace. Outdoor dining is also possible at the holiday home.

Fantastic location on side of fjord. Very modern and comfortable interior. Lovely outside seating although we only used it one day due to the weather. Good area to explore. Arendal is only a few minutes away by car and has lots of shops and restaurants. We also used the historic passenger ferry which only takes 6 minutes and runs all day late into the evening but is a pleasant 30 minute walk from the boat house. The host, Arild met us on arrival to show us where to park and show us the property.

Located in Arendal in the Aust-Agder region, Koselig lite hus nær sentrum features a terrace. This holiday home provides accommodation with a balcony. The property is non-smoking and is set 22 km from The Ibsen House.

We would have appreciated some information in beforehand on how to find the house, where to park and what was included. It was not possible to drive to the house (with the help of google map) or walk by foot without an instruction.

The cleanliness was really good, the fridge and kitchen were nicely cleaned and all rooms had been cleaned before we arrived. There are also towels etc. which you can borrow so you don't have to bring your own, it's very nice. We have had a nice view of the entire Arendal with sun as metioned in the title :D. The hosts have shown real hospitality and have been easy to get in contact with and they also reply very quickly regarding questions, so we were happy and recommend this to others going.
