We liked the cottage, especially the hot tub. The cottage was well equipped, although a second pillow per person would have been nice and blackout curtains. Overall -- very recommendable.

The interior of our cottage was comfortable and full of amenities. And what really addedto the vibe was the hot tub in the center of the cottages. No luck with the northern lights due to clouds drifting in, but it was a lot of fun anyway.

Fantastic Cottage

The cottage was charming, spacious and very clean. The bed was very comfortable. The kitchen was really good, four burners, an oven and cookwear in good condition. Everything was very well organized including a QR code at reception to load directions to the cottage into google maps and another QR code n the cottage to join the internet which was fast and reliable. Highly recommended.

We loved the hot tub in the middle of the cottages. Very nice cabin that came fully stocked with pots, pans, dishes, towels, bath robes, and several sizes of crocs to walk to the hot tub in. Spacious and comfortable.

We loved Hestasport Cottages! The hot tub was very relaxing. The property was wonderful and it was so nice having our own private cottage after staying in many cramped guesthouses and hotels.

Il cottage era MAGNIFICO. Me ne sono innamorata appena aperta la porta. Tutto curato nei minimi dettagli, pulito e confortevole. L’hot tub era stupenda, l’abbiamo avuta per un’ora tutta per noi perché gli altri presenti non sono mai venuti ad utilizzarla! Ho apprezzato molto anche il fatto che in casa fossero presenti carta forno, alluminio e pellicola (ottimo nel caso doveste prepararvi dei pasti/panini per il giorno dopo). Abbiamo anche fatto l’ora e mezza a cavallo con loro ed è stato stupendo. Spero proprio di riuscire a tornare prima o poi!

The cottage was really nice and large. Much better than the hotels we stayed at. The only thing was the shower water was a bit smelling of sulphur but they were upfront about that.

Very nice cabin. Had some difficulty finding the cabin. Sulfur smell in the water was off-putting, but not a deal breaker. Hot tub was great.

We stayed at the 4 person apartment. It was spacious and the kitchen was nice. We however did not like the surroundings. We expected to be on a farm like setting which was not the case. It had a nice size outdoor hot tub.
