"A lovingly renovated hundred-year-old villa that retains its old-world character, this beachside retreat preserves original features (expect the odd squeaky floorboard or rattling window) while adding smart updates like a state-of-the-art oven. Inside, a floral-patterned reading nook by the window, breezy whitewashed bedrooms with pink-striped bedding, and a light-dappled conservatory with two squashy sofas set a soothing tone. Gaze out at gently lapping fjords, stroll to the beach in three minutes, and, if you’re lucky, share the sofa with one of the two friendly house cats; self check-in and easy beach access keep it simple." - Charley Ward
