This property is unique in Norway, the name literally translates from Norwegian as "The Champagne Castle" - built in 1901 the former summer home of the Russian consul was built to entertain. It is rare to find a holiday property of such character, with breathtaking views to the open sea, your own wing of this historic house has access to a private beach, and is surrounded by acres of mature woodland.
The setting of this house is very secluded and peaceful, yet you are only ten minutes drive from the vibrant town of Arendal with its picturesque harbour surrounded by excellent restaurants and bars.
The coastline around Arendal is a beautiful network of sea-fjords, wooded islands and secluded beaches, a paradise for families with plenty to do and see especially in summer, and only two hours from Oslo Torp airport.
Accommodation:
Open plan living area, with fully equipped kitchen, dining table and lounge with wood burning stove. Stunning views over the garden to the sea.
There are two bedrooms, one twin or double room and one with a family bunk bed (double below, single above).
There is also a mezzanine floor in the living area which has two further beds and a cot.
Luxury wet room with shower.
There are French doors leading onto the terrace, which has outdoor seating and a barbeque - the perfect place to unwind with a drink as the sun sets, listening to the waves breaking at the foot of the garden.
There is also excellent fishing from the shore.
The climate along the south coast is surprisingly warm, it is regularly over 20 degrees in July and August and because of the northerly latitude there are long hours of daylight through the summer.
