This fantastic fjordside holiday village is situated on Norway's south coast, a short drive from Oslo (1.5 hours to Oslo Torp airport), close to the pretty seaside town of Risør.  The village has high quality lodges, surrounded by forest, close to the fjord with the sea in one direction and mountains in the other.

The village has a swimming pool, football pitch, beach, there are lots of activities on offer suitable for all ages.  There is also much to explore locally, take a boat to one of the many islands nearby, or enjoy a spot of fishing from the shore.  You can rent boats and fishing tackle on site.

Welcome to Risør Holiday Village

Space, freedom and safety for kids, with amazing natural surroundings, make Norway a great destination for families, however the country does have a reputation for being expensive.  Risor Holiday Village combines the best things about a holiday in Norway with good value for money; high standard accommodation, great activities and if you don't want to cook you can dine out in the town.

Location

Situated above the fjord near Risør, the village enjoys far reaching views to the sea, and inland to the mountains of Telemark.  It is a beautiful setting in the fresh, clean, Norwegian country air.  In summer the region enjoys long warm sunny days - it is the Norwegian's favourite summer holiday destination.

In winter the area is transformed into a magical world of snow cover trees, frozen fjords with the scent of woodsmoke in the air.

A short drive away is the pretty town of Risor, one of Europe's best preserved wooden towns, with picturesque wooden houses nestled around the small harbour.  There are festivals and events in Risør throughout the year and some excellent restaurants and bars.

We stayed at Risor Holiday Village over the Christmas period and had an amazing time. The staff were wonderful making sure we had everything we needed including a beautiful christmas tree. The staff made sure there were plenty of activities for the children and adults alike including tree climbing, Lava day with absailing and best of all the fishing trip which was brilliant. The hoiday village is set in beautiful landscape surrounded by mountains and 5 min walk to the Fjord. We would recommend this holiday for anytime of year and for any age.
We would like to thank all the staff for making our stay one of the best holidays we have ever had!

 

Wonderful

We would just like to say that we could not fault Risor Village, we thought the whole place was fantastic and such a great set up. Staying there, for me, has been the highlight of our Norway stay. It was so great to be part of nature and just having some peaceful time staying there. The cabin was lovely, home away from home.

I do have a few constructive critisisms listed below;

* a microwave would be very useful in the cabin
* a more heated pool (I say this as a bit of a joke, to us Aussies the water was freezing but I guess Norwegans/Europeans would think it was warm!)

We had an excellent family holiday here in July 2011. Simple cabins, but very comfortable and clean. Excellent facilities and lots of help organising transport and activities. Would definitely stay again
