Holiday rentals with lake access in Sotra

We stayed for 3 nights and really enjoyed this beautiful place. Even though its part of a bigger (beautiful!) house because it is across 2 floors the apartment feels spacious. It's very beautifully decorated and feels cosy and warm. The views across the fjord are incredible and seem to change every time you look out of the window. Aleksander and Johanne were responsive, friendly and helpful. The Thai restaurant opposite is fantastic too. The only thing we missed was a comfy chair or sofa - and slippers for our little girl to wear on the wooden floor whilst she was rushing around at speed (bit slippy/splintery in a couple of places). I'm sure this wouldn't affect adults or older kids though! She LOVED the bath and bathroom! The outdoor deck area is lovely, despite a lot of rain during our stay we made use of it. There's a rowing boat you can borrow and sauna to hire too - we didn't as our daughter a bit young but would be great fun! A great place to stay in a beautiful part of Norway!

Great location for this beautiful house, perfectly as described and as shown in the photos. Anders was very friendly, proactive and responsive by messaging. Small touches were waiting for us upon arrival, and the living room was very nicely decorated for Christmas. The 40-degree Jacuzzi facing the fjord is a must! Only one slight downside on the cleanliness of the kitchen which was good but not impeccable. A very nice place to recommend without hesitation. Thanks again for a wonderful Christmas in Bergen.

it is the second time thar we spent some time at Stig's cabin and once more it was idyllic! The house is beautiful and the garden perfect for a family holiday, not mentionning the sauna and the wonderful surroundings. I am surw we will come back again soon!

We loved our stay here; you absolutely can’t beat the view and it’s super peaceful. The bathrooms in particular are really nice and were very clean! There is only one true shower as the master bath is a giant tub with a handheld sprayer but no curtain or hook for the handheld sprayer, but still very manageable and the other full bath has a stand up shower. We did not have a vehicle, but the host provided instructions with pictures for us to get to the house; we managed just fine with the 92 bus and train connection into Bergen. Be warned that the transit doesn’t run 24/7 though, so we had to schedule a taxi for an early morning airport departure. We would absolutely stay again; thanks for a great visit!

Definitely one of my most beautiful rented homes on Airbnb. The house is decorated with care, feet in the water, calm, kindness of Torstein and Ida. We are the opposite of the anonymous key boxes that are multiplying everywhere. I would recommend it 100%

Beautiful spot with small private beach! Excellent views of the water from all rooms. Private and quite, great for the kids and a good spot for excursions to bergen and the fjords

Our stay at this magnificent property in Bergen was nothing short of extraordinary. This spacious haven, brimming with every imaginable amenity, enveloped us in warmth and comfort. The views were absolutely breathtaking—every bit as stunning as the photos promised, if not more. It’s the perfect retreat for relaxation, offering a serene escape from the world. Hosts Kenneth and Janette were exceptional, always responsive, and went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. This gem of a property has been a standout highlight of our European tour, leaving us with unforgettable memories. Highly recommend!

Very beautiful home! Everything was awesome:)

We spent a weekend at the apartment and felt very comfortable there :) The flat was very clean, the interior very cozy and the kitchen had everything you might need. In the bedrooms the blinds make it very dark at night, which is very helpful in the summer. We also really appreciated the calm surroundings, perfect for hiking!

What a fabulous central location. Apartment exactly as described…really comfortable and cosy. We slept really well. Good WiFi and well stocked with books & games. We mostly ate out but kitchen is well stocked. We would absolutely stay here again.

We loved our stay here. The neighborhood was great. Very pretty and close to all the sites we wanted to see. Easy walk into historic area. Loved the little balcony. Check in was very easy. Great stay!

We loved staying here! Its such a cute place and the street is so charming and beautiful, feels very private but is also walkable. The interior is very nicely furnished and designed and made for a very cozy place to rest and enjoy looking out the windows at the surrounding rooftops. Highly recommend!

Pictures don’t do the justice!!! Place is so beautiful. Love all the plants. It has everything you need and more to make you feel like home.

I had an amazing stay! This Airbnb is gorgeous. It's such a treat to get home to after a day of exploring. Very clean and lots of amenities (I.e., washer/dryer, blow dryer, kitchen supplies). The location is also great! It's in a central location that makes it easily walkable to many desirable attractions in Bergen. There is a grocery store beside the unit and restaurants within walking distance. 10 min walk from main transit line to airport. Such a wonderful stay!

Amazing find! This place is absolutely magical— even better than the pictures! Being right on a fjord was a unique experience. The location is convenient, just a short ride to the heart of Bergen. Although our stay was brief, we thoroughly enjoyed it. Highly recommend this cozy accommodation to anyone seeking a memorable getaway!

Great stay! The apartment was clean, stylish, and exactly as described. The bed was very comfortable, and the kitchen had everything needed for cooking. Wi-Fi was fast and reliable. The location was perfect — close to public transport and shops, but still quiet at night. Check-in was smooth, and the host was responsive and helpful throughout. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the area.

We had a wonderful stay at a very unique location, views from the apartment are stunning, and we enjoyed a lot taking the boat to explore the Fjord! Trude and Björn are great hosts, thanks a lot and love to return! cheers

Nice quiet place by the water.

Very nice old little house in rural surroundings. Well-equipped kitchen, comfortable and new bathroom. Listen between rooms/floors. Nice garden and patio. Very clean and tidy.

Very nice place. Absolutely perfect for families with children, with a lot to find for small and large persons. Lovely and sheltered space, quiet and quiet. Very nice play and helpful hosts. We'd love to come back!

The house is incredibly beautiful and we would have liked to have spent more time in it. And the surroundings are simply great. Johanne and Ingvald are very likeable hosts and gave us good tips for the area. We will be happy to come back!

Ok: if you're into resting & doing some work at a peaceful location then this is it! Cozy, warm, everything works. (If you're there to have a party, then stay far far away from it - the place is calm and peaceful and doesn't need you turning on your lousy, cheap JBL and howling towards the mountains "how amazing you are for existing" ) Anyhow :D , it's one of the pearls of planet: no tourism - just natural beauty and being. If you haven't had a farm-/summerhouse, you might be a bit "stuck up", how everything isn't entirely spot clean or new, but for humans, it's a sincere, cozy place that has been treated with respect - and you should too ! ;) I'll bring my stingy attitude (because I really enjoyed it and wish it lasted for decades) a bit more down and say: go and have a great time! It's a real experience (especially if you're from a flat land)! :)

We had a great stay despite the rain, the house was lovely and cosy. The boys loved being near the fjord and beach. The sauna unexpected extra. Sverre was easy to contact and friendly. The whole experience was super laidback. Thank goodness the sun came out for our last couple of days.

What a fantastic time we have spent in Trude and Andreas’ magnificent house in Haukanes on Huglo! The charming, secluded and well equipped traditional red house and its quiet surroundings are breathtaking with ever changing views, the greens and flowers, the small cottages, the boathouse, the pier, the boat and of course the sea only a few meters away. Despite some fairly rainy days we (two adults and a youngster of 16) enjoyed a lot the cozy house and had plenty to do exploring the island; hiking the Natur/Kulturstien, “climbing” Høgafjellet more than once, and talking to the very friendly and helpful Huglare. Other highlights included ice cream sessions at the Huglabutikken (with a surprisingly good selection of groceries), the multiple ferry trips to Hodnanes and Jektavik and the hiking on Stord (Stovegolvet). Trude and Andreas are fantastic hosts, extremely fast in answering any questions we had and we would warmly recommend to visit their magic place on Huglo.
