B&B em: Uskedalen

Sushma Índia

Beautiful 100 year old house, a legacy of the owner's aunt who left him this house and the farmland around when she passed in her 100th year. Gorgeous views of the mountains behind and the deep blue waters of the fjord in front. I loved the old style kitchen and dining room. The bedrooms are small but comfortable and the living room has an old world charm. The best thing about this property is the super friendly and super enthusiastic owner, who showed us around the vast amount of land he owns. He drove us in his station wagon halfway up the mountain to show us his cottage by the glacial lake, where he spends time when he drops off his sheep on this mountain every year from June to Sept. He encouraged us to hike the rest of the way up Solfjell mountain, telling us it was an easy hike - we believed him and went all the way up to the summit from where we had fabulous views of the glacial lakes, the fjord and the sea - but it took us 6 hours to climb and descend to Uskadalen and the trek was challenging. Never believe a Norwegian when they say a trek is easy! :) Tip - we couldn't find any restaurants in Uskadalen but there is a nice Thai takeaway within walking distance. Also a Spar supermarket.
