Customer Reviews Brumund - The Larch Hut

21 Apr 2013 Annie Kristi, Norway
Vi var 2 barn og 2 voksne- hadde en herlig opplevelse på Lerkehytten. Grilling ved ankomst i tretoppen, og det var en spennende naturopplevelse med alle fugler og ekorn tett på. Ungene stor koste seg, og savnet ikke tv!! Vi gikk en liten tur i området, hvor vi så elgbæsj og det var stort for de små! Vi booker gjerne igjen!

Vurdér en hytte for allergikere. Ellers er det veldig bra at dere tilrettelegger så godt med at ting som man ofte glemmer når man skal på hyttetur allerede er på plass.

Problemer med gassen. Det trakk mye ned å ikke kunne steke seg egg og bacon og koke kaffe på morran. Hadde heller ikke varmt vann. Den ene gassflasken var ikke koblet til og den andre gikk tom i løpet av natten. Når jeg, som er ingeniør og rimelig praktisk anlagt, ikke klarte å koble til to nye flasker på riktig måte (i henhold til Frode), er ikke opplegget godt nok tilrettelagt for kundene.

Veldig fornøyd med oppholden og det var en kjempefin hytte på et veldig fint sted! Spennende opplevelse:) men det var noen småting som kunne vært bedre. Bl.a. at vi måtte rive et tårn som allerede hadde bygd seg nesten helt til topps i utedoen, veden var vanskelig å få fyr på pga fuktig, og vi fant en bokser og genser i den ene senga.

Vi hadde et nydelig opphold i Lerkehytta 2. til 3. desember. Selv om temperaturen krøp ned mot minus 18, holdt vi varmen. Det var også ekstra hyggelig å våkne til lyden av raske ekornføtter utenfor vinduet. Tusen takk for opplevelsen! Kommer gjerne igjen!

Det burde vært mulig å booke og evaluere på norsk!

Takk for et kjempefint opphold. Vi er veldig fornøyde,men hytta trenger en grundig rengjøring. Det var ikke direkte skittent,men en storrengjøring med skikkelig skuring hadde gjort seg. Var der for halvannet år siden, da var den ikke så sliten.... Bare et lite tips altså.

The lake was smaller than we thought.

Vi hadde et hyggelig opphold, men de som var før oss hadde nok ikke fulgt reglene for hvorden det skulle se ut etter dem. Vi vasket golv og ristet saueskinn, det var absolutt nødvendig. Kanskje noen burde se etter mellom nye gjester... Vet dette tar tid, men en forventer jo at det er rent. Ellers har vi anbefalt oppholdet til andre, det var en spseiell opplevelse!
Hostel Overview
Brumund Vandrerhjem is one of a kind! The hostel is the only Norwegian approved treetop huts. The hostel is built in the woods of Brumunddal, called The Pine Hut and The Larch Hut The Pine Hut is rented out as private room for 5 persons, and The Larch Hut is rented out as a private room for 6 persons. From the cabins you can listen to the birds sing, and if you are lucky you might even spot an elk from the porch. Both cabins have great surroundings for those who like the wilderness and activities as fishing, hiking, and nature watching. The distance between the cabins are considerable, so regular interactions between the cabins might be difficult. PLEASE BE AWARE THAT THE CABINS ARE SELF-CATERED, and all guests have to bring their own bed linen, as well as food and drinking water. If 2 people or more book the cabin together, you get the cabin all to yourselves. The cabins can only be reached by own transportation (car, motor bike or bicycle).

The cabin is about 15m2 small with a charming porch with benches and beautiful view towards the wood and lake. There is also a nice open fireplace at the porch that sets the mood.

The cabin is isolated for the winter season and because of electricity from the sun you are able to turn on lights. From the outdoor you will hear the sounds from the forest and the wildlife. Birds and squirrels are your comfortable next door neighbors and they often turn up for dinner. When the cabin was built the summer of 2009 elks were to be seen almost every evening. The Black Grouse grazes in the top of the Birch in front of the cabin autumn, winter and spring.
