This was our third stay at Loen Cottage. It is a wonderful location with fantastic views. The cottage is very quiet yet only 2 minutes walk from town. It's very comfortable and clean and the little garden is an added bonus.

Good accommodation in a great location. This was our 2nd stay at Loen cottage and the property has benefitted from being redecorated and new carpets. It was fresh and clean and offers spacious and well equipped accommodation. It might not have the 'wow-factor' of some other properties but on price and location it's a great place to stay. We will be returning later in 2024.
