The kitchen is exellent and there is no restaurants in town, the supermarket is adequate but if you would like to cook something fresh and special then buy it from one of the gourmet deli and bakery in tromso, great BBQ house out the front that is definitely worth cooking a meal in, the views from the deck and kitchen are beautiful, but the curtains do not block out the 24 hr sunlight so pack a sleep mask if you are light sensitive, comfy beds, loads of bedding, wash and dry facilities are brilliant, hosts are down to earth Norweigen farmers who are very caring and accomodating, good wi-fi reception, loved it.

Wow! 7 of us friends from Australia (2 couples, 3 singles) stayed here as part of Euro trip. An absolute highlight. The home is better than the photos give it credit and the location was stunning. We laid on the snow on deerskin and watched the Aurora lights dance across the sky and it was so worth the trip. We self catered from the nearby supermarket and made great meals in the adequate kitchen and the cool barbecue hut. There was heaps of wood for the fireplace, the bbq and the awesome fire pit on this little rock plateau by the fjords idea where we rugged up and hung out at most of our stay. We just chilled out there for three days and unfortunately we couldn't go dog sledding with Tommy because there wasn't enough snow but we visited the kennels nearby and it was lots of fun. The sauna was great and we used it after having jumped in the ice cold Norwegian sea 10m from our front door. Friends, families, couples - stay here! I will again one day!

My family and I stayed here tfor a few days after New Years and were enchanted by the location, the sights, and the people! Phenomenal house that sits right on the Lyngen Fjord. We couldn't have found a better place for our short retreat if we had tried! Perfect place for the kids to play in the snow (sleds provided courtesy of Hanne-Lil, the owner) which made the trip for them as well. No need to go anywhere but outside our front door to see the Northern Lights and then a sauna for afterwards to warm the blood body and soul again. Also got to play with the sled dogs of Tommy Larsen which was another highlight of the trip for the whole family! One of the best trips we've taken...definitely high on the list to stay here again!!!

Only just spotted this is on TA. It was 2013 when we stayed but really have to review this wonderful house. Its spotless, in the most amazing location, and a lovely owner. Do you see the little hut in the garden? Imagine lighting the fire in there, cooking reindeer steak, sitting on reindeer skins and then running around outside when the Northern Lights appear right overhead? we did for 5 nights.

We also drove to the Finnish border when it was cloudy at Lyngen. The lights reflected in the fjord all around us. We had the best time.

The local town is good for bread, pizza and roll mops! Food is very expensive so we brought a lot from UK. We had some lovely days out catching the ferry across from Lyngsfelt and driving right up to Someroy. The scenery is amazing.

We coupled this stay with a litle hut in the Lofoten islands at Reine and used the Hurtigruten ferry between there and Tromso taking the hire car with us. A Skoda 4x4 winter equipped. We had the most fantastic holiday in Norway and would love to go back one day, but can we beat 5 nights of Northern Lights?
