You can rent an apartment for shorter or longer periods of time. Rental of apartments is arranged either through rental firms or by ads in local newspapers. Private accommodation, i.e. rental of single rooms can be found through tourist information offices.
You will find cabins for rent along the coast and fjords, in the woods, valleys and mountains. Some are available for very short periods, others for a minimum of one week.
Standards vary from the extremely simple to the very luxurious. What they all offer, however, is the opportunity to experience the traditional Norwegian cottage cosiness that just can not compare with staying in a room in the city. At the cabin you organise your time as you like. Or more to the point not organise it at all. Simply enjoy life!
Cottages and cabins can be rented through professional agencies, but local and regional tourist offices can be of assistance.
