Seaside and cozy cottage Kristiansand Flekkerøy

Brand new, modern and cozy cabin, unique location Flekkerøy, Kristiansand. The cabin is beautifully located with proximity to the lake and the forest with views of Oksøy lighthouse.

Nice place to recharge your batteries, and kid friendly. The cabin is in a quiet area with families, so we do not want partying.
