The cottage was a perfect spot to stay just outside Vik. We spent 2 days on the South Coast and although we had a very short visit, the cottage was comfortable, clean and quiet.

A nice place close to two waterfalls

It is a clean and comfortable place with a kitchen which is very convenient. The view is nice too. There was enough hot water for all of us (4 in all) to have showers. The staff was friendly and helpful.

Kitchen had great options but we didn't use them. Location was nice, good amount of space in cabin. The bathroom and bedroom doors close tough. The shower was scalding hot and wouldnt seem to adjust cooler. I would stay again!

A beautiful well equipped cottage in a stunning location. It was clean, easy to get into and the view of the mountains was breathtaking. 4 of us (2 adults and 2 kids) stayed there and it was small but well laid out so we felt like we had a good amount of space. The kitchen had everything we needed and it was nice to have coffee, tea and sugar (many places we stayed at on the trip didn’t so this was great to see). We would certainly stay here again and highly recommend this accommodation.

The views around the property were grand. It is an amazing property nestled at the base of some mountains. The best thing is the view of the mountain in the morning. Only two concerns; we came very late after hours and it was hard to get the access code by messaging and calling; and there was a used makeup sponge left in the bathroom.
