A very nice house built in the late 70´s. It´s very spacious and has a good location right in the center of Balestrand. From the living room there´s a beautiful view to the mountains and the terrace is secluded and nice. 400 meters away there is a perfect sandy and children-friendly beach. Great hiking opportunities. Restaurants, grocery stores and cafées two minutes walk from house. Children friendly house. We have baby beds, strollers, chairs for children, some toys and toddler cutlery.
My husband and I live in Bergen with our four children (twins born in 2015, girl born in 2013 and girl born in 2004.) Aslak works with theatre and bicycles, and I work in the Norwegian Broadcasting (NRK). We love spending time in Balestrand. The atmosphere, nature and fjord is amazing. We love laughing and bicycling! We are available through the Booking app/website and phone/Whatsapp. We also have local helpers and cleaners that can be of assistance.
Balestrand is special in the way it forms a cosy village with a well defined centre, unlike most small places in Norway, where the houses and facilities are more spread out. From the house you can get all that you could wish for literally within walking distance from the house: Cafés, museums, grocery stores, design stores, bars, restaurants, post office, aquarium, bike/boat/canoe/kayak rental, guided fishing trips to mention but a few. Other than that, Balestrand is known for wonderful light and breathtaking nature. This area of the Sognefjord has welcomed tourists since the 1800s. English lords and the German Emperor Wilhelm II also spent a lot of time in Balestrand and the Sognefjord area during about a hundred years ago. These visitors left their mark on the many villas in Balestrand, which show traces of both English and German wooden house architecture, most notably perhaps the use of dragon heads and beam ends on the facade. The English Church also is very special. This is also a wooden building, has many windows to the fjord, and a petite charm. Its interior was actually also the model for the crowning scene in the blockbuster film Frost.
