About this lodge

Lothlórien Lodge sits on the hill above Straand Hotel — two minutes by car, or a ten-minute walk — with Vrådal centre and the lake beach both close by. It's a brand-new build, and the design shows throughout.

Downstairs, the open-plan living and kitchen area centres around a sofa, Smart TV and dining table, with a wood-burning stove for cooler evenings. The kitchen is fully equipped — an induction hob, convection oven, combination microwave, dishwasher, fridge, freezer, Nespresso machine, Quooke kettle, toaster and mixer.

Two bedrooms are on this floor: one with a double bed, one with two single beds. A separate toilet and two further bathrooms complete the floor — one with a shower and sink next to the sauna, and one with a toilet, shower and sink. A technical room holds the washing machine, dryer, iron, ironing board and drying rack.

Upstairs, two more bedrooms — one with two single beds, one with a double — sit alongside a small workstation: a desk, chair and monitor with keyboard and mouse, two relaxing chairs, and a cupboard of board games, books and card games for quieter days.

Outside, a large covered terrace holds garden furniture, sun loungers, a BBQ and a grill, with a fire pit for evenings under the stars. Parking for three cars and an EV charging point complete the house.

Where you’ll be

Forest Hideaway Near Lake Nisser

This stunning retreat offers the perfect blend of tranquility and convenience. Nestled on a lush green mountainside in Hytteveld Furuheim, the property is surrounded by forests, mountains, and lakes, creating an idyllic setting for nature lovers. From here, you can enjoy beautiful views and fully immerse yourself in the peaceful Norwegian landscape.

The location is ideal for outdoor activities year‑round. A short walk to Lake Nisser’s beach makes swimming or relaxing by the water easy. The ski slopes are just a 10‑minute drive away, and the village of Vrådal—with shops, cafés, and essential amenities—is only 2 minutes from the property. Whether you enjoy hiking, kayaking, fishing, cycling, or skiing, this area offers endless opportunities for adventure.

The property’s setting guarantees a green mountainside location, walking distance to the lake, and quiet surroundings in the heart of nature. Enjoy the sun from morning to evening, while being just 10 minutes from the ski slopes and 2 minutes from Vrådal center. Surrounded by lakes, mountains, and scenic hiking trails—and only two to three hours from major cities like Oslo, Kristiansand, Langesund, Larvik, and Sandefjord—this is the ultimate nature escape.

Whether you’re planning a winter ski holiday or a summer lakeside getaway, this forest retreat is the perfect base for an unforgettable stay in Vrådal.
