Family-friendly vacation rentals in Agder

Fairytale place by the shore of idyllic lake. Traditional lovely cozzy lavvo. Thank you

Beautiful inviting place. Per Kristian & Christine we’re very hospitable. My kids loved the wide open space, playing with their kittens, puppy, chickens and even made friends with their son. The view of the river and the green surroundings were very peaceful. Christine also brought us around her garden to share her plants and house history with us. Amazing time!

Thanks for a great stay! The apartment was only a 12 minute drive from the zoo. Incredibly peaceful atmosphere, beautiful garden and an amazing view. The apartment was modern and clean, and the host went above and beyond and was super helpful and friendly. Definitely a nice plus to be able to enjoy the view from the jacuzzi. Would easily come back again.

Our stay at Joakim’s place was magical! The view was incredible and the cabin cozy and inviting. Joakim was responsive and friendly throughout the stay. We certainly hope to come back in the future!

Beautiful house - was what we expected from the pictures. Scenery was unbelievable, it was quiet and private. Really wish the hot water had been working in the kitchen sink and outdoor shower. Also wish the hot tub wasn't an extra cost to use -- it should just be part of the overall price as it's one of the main draws and features in the rental description. Overall amazing, would stay again, but for the price, would want the hot water working.

We had the most wonderful week with children, grandchildren and mother-in-law in this absolutely unique and for an architect's exciting house - an original Norwegian log cabin with super comfortable furniture, beds and well equipped with all kitchen equipment, firewood, games, TV and internet. The cabin was secluded a little by itself overlooking the beautiful Brokke mountain and over the cabin area, which we enjoyed from the porch around the fire pit, We could walk/stand skiing to the ski place, which also meets all our needs. We give the cabin, Bente and Tor-Olav our best recommendations and would like to come again - not least to also experience the place in the summer. Only downside was that we had to wear snow chains 500 meters before the cabin. We were not prepared for the driveway to be so steep. We later found that it is easier to drive a little further on the big road, and first drive into the cabin area from the driveway just across from Brokke-Alpincenter. In the cabin, there is gravel to spread out, but we only found out later. Thank you very much for the loan: -)

The place was amazing, and the host was always quick to reply to either phone calls or text. Will visit this amazing place again for sure!🤩

Absolutely amazing place! Jonas is a great host, responded quickly and came up with great recommendations. The kitchen has what you need and the stomp was a big plus. Highly recommended, we will be back :)

Great beautiful spacious accommodation in a beautiful place. Very hospitably received by the host with tips for points of interest. Recommended for the peace seeker!

beautiful place, beautiful view, great owners, you can always contact them and ask about something. Thanks Pat, we hope to see you again.

Beautiful village, Big house, Lovely kitchen with all the basic stuff for cooking.

The cottage was very cozy. The surroundings were peaceful with beautiful nature. We really enjoyed it. The host was very friendly and helpful. The cottage had everything we needed. We had a barbecue and went for a walk along the beautiful river. We highly recommend this little paradise.

simple but very nice accomodation! Would go back there anytime!

lovely place right on the lake

Incredible location with all the amenities for a longer period stay. We stayed for almost 3 months and we had a wonderful time . Magne and Lena are great hosts, very friendly and made us fell like home. They offered us the opportunity to join to different gatherings to fell the community atmosphere and traditions. During our stay, we worked remotely and the WiFi was the best ever seen . Not any problem encountered during our stay and Magne was there to respond to any questions we had. At the location there are many hiking trails and nature spots to discover. We can't wait to return there. Tip for tenants: If the location is available during your desired period, don't think twice and book it... you will thank me later for the tip.

Very simple and tidy rental. Worked perfectly for a family of 5 going to family meet.

Perfect stay for our Christmas holiday! The house was decorated, beautiful, and very large. The kids couldn’t stay out of the pool and hot tub! Host was very very accommodating, and the location was breath taking! Id do it again in a heart beat :) very pleased.

Great cabin/house with everything we needed. Would love to come back.

We had a great time at the apartment for 10 days. The pool was extensively used with the 4-year-old both in the sun and rain and we never got the feeling of inconvenience to the homeowner who was at home. The apartment was felt larger than it looked in the pictures. The location is perfect starting point for a trip to the zoo or city center. Of course, you won't get away from any traffic noise so close to E18, but the apartment was well soundproofed so this wasn't very annoying Aina as a host was both nice and very helpful. We would highly recommend both host and place!

Top score from us! Great house, spacious, Tidy and clean. Good outdoor area suitable both for both badminton, boccia and the terrace lion. Short route to the beach, shop and city center. Recommended!

Very friendly hosts - would highly recommend staying here! Description and pictures are very accurate - small and cozy! Cooking in the kitchen was tight but my wife and I managed to make some easy meals during our stay. Shower is outdoors but very private, great water pressure and hot so even on the colder days it was very pleasant. Not a ton to do in the specific area but very easy drive to Kristiansand and Mandal if you are looking for more shops and restaurants. Beautiful place very close to the beach!

It is a nice house in a wonderful surrounding. we had lots of fun in the waterfall, the river and the fjord. The conversations with Olav were always on point and fast answered. I recommend it warmly.

Great house, great host!

Hi Gunnar, Thank you for letting us spend our family vacation in your cabin. Hovden is a very nice quiet place with great hiking opportunities even with a toddler. We felt very comfortable and were able to really relax. Kind regards, Jana, Tobi, children and grandchild
