Cabin Rentals – Experience Off-Grid Living
I rent out two off-grid cabins, offering a unique opportunity to experience life away from the hustle and bustle—completely self-sufficient and surrounded by nature. Whether you are looking for a peaceful retreat or a base for outdoor adventures, these cabins provide comfort without compromising the off-grid experience.
The Small Cabin – Cozy and Self-Sufficient
The smaller cabin is rented out as a private unit, meaning you have the entire cabin to yourself. It offers 90 square meters of living space and includes:
-
2 bedrooms for a good night’s sleep
-
An attic room – perfect for children or as an extra sleeping area
-
A combined kitchen and living room with space to relax and cook meals
In the summer, the cabin has both cold and hot running water, as well as electricity. Please note that power consumption is limited to a maximum of 1500 watts at any given time—something that becomes second nature when living off-grid.
The cabin is powered by:
-
Solar panels: 1500 watts
-
Battery capacity: 10 kWh
This setup provides enough energy for lighting, charging devices, and running small appliances, while encouraging a mindful approach to energy use.
Why Stay Off-Grid?
Staying in an off-grid cabin is a chance to slow down and reconnect with nature. You will experience:
-
True peace and quiet – no noise from roads or neighbors
-
Sustainable living – your stay is powered entirely by the sun
-
A digital detox – limited power encourages time away from screens
-
Stargazing – with minimal light pollution, the night sky is spectacular
Both cabins are located in Nittedal, surrounded by forests and walking trails. Whether you visit in summer for hiking and swimming or in winter for the snowy landscape, you are in for a memorable stay.

The cabin is powered by a robust off-grid system:
-
Solar panels: 4800 watts
-
Battery capacity: 40 kWh
This setup provides ample power for lighting, device charging, kitchen appliances, and more, while maintaining the self-sufficient character of the property.
