This amazing complex of futuristic cabins spread along a forested river is probably one of the boldest architectural hotels anywhere in Norway. It's the brainchild of owner Knut Slinning, who bought the adjoining farm and commissioned these striking, timber-clad, steel-framed pods with cinematic plate-glass windows that seem to invite nature in. They were used in the sci-fi film Ex Machina.
The main cabins have been supplemented by two basic 'birdhouses' slightly uphill, which are considerably less flash (they only have basic bathrooms and a hand-held shower), but are considerably cheaper.
Breakfasts and evening meals (550kr per person) take place around a long communal table in the rustic barn, and there's a riverside spa where you can sit in a hot tub or sauna and watch the clouds race overhead.
Note that to retain privacy, casual visits are not allowed.
