Simple and peaceful accommodation with a central location. Only a 5 min walk from Arendal city center. In a quiet street, in the middle of charming southern wooden housing, you will find this house from 1876 with an unusually warm atmosphere and a sheltered garden. This is not a house for you who are looking for perfect symmetry and designer kitchens, but for you who are looking for a place where you really feel your shoulders let go. Great for couples, groups of friends and small families.
