Rental terms
Last updated 18 October 2026
This is an English translation of the Norwegian original. If the versions differ, the Norwegian version applies.
1. The agreement
These terms apply to the rental of Lindeview in Hillestadheia, Norway. The landlord is Morten Ljøstad. A booking request is not binding on either party until the landlord has confirmed it. The agreement is concluded when you have received the confirmation.
2. Who we rent to
- Lindeview is rented to families only, not to groups of adults, companies or events.
- A maximum of 10 guests, and a minimum of 2 nights per stay.
- Pets must be stated when booking (add-on).
- The person sending the request must be over 18 years old and be present during the stay.
3. Price and payment
The price you see when you send the request is the price that applies to the booking, even if prices change later. All amounts are in euros (EUR).
When the booking is confirmed, you receive a link to Stripe where you pay a prepayment of 25% of the rent and register your card. Your bank will normally ask you to approve the payment (3D Secure). The booking is secured once the prepayment has been paid. The remainder is charged automatically to the same card 29 days before check-in. If the booking is confirmed later than that, you pay the full rent straight away. We never see or store your card number.
If the automatic charge does not go through, you receive an email with a link to pay the remainder yourself. The booking remains valid, but we may cancel it if the remainder is not paid.
4. Security deposit
The security deposit stated when you booked is reserved on your card the day before check-out. It is not charged, and it is normally released within 5 days after check-out, once we have inspected the cabin.
The deposit may be charged in full or in part in the event of damage, loss, unusual cleaning needs or breach of these terms. In that case you will be told the reason and the amount.
5. Damage and additional charges
You are responsible for any damage that you or your party cause to the cabin, its contents or the property. If the damage exceeds the deposit, or is discovered after the deposit has been released, we may charge an additional amount to the same card. You will be notified and receive documentation before this happens.
6. Cancellation by you
Cancel by contacting us by email or phone. The refund depends on when we receive notice:
- At least 30 days before check-in: you get back what you have paid, minus a cancellation fee of 2% of the total rent. The fee is deducted from the prepayment. The rest of the rent is not charged.
- Less than 30 days before check-in: the rent is not refunded.
Refunds are made to the same card. A deposit that has not been reserved is not charged.
7. Cancellation by us
If we have to cancel the stay, for example because of damage to the cabin, a technical error in the booking system or other circumstances beyond our control, you get the full amount you have paid back.
8. During the stay
Treat the cabin and the surrounding nature with care, and follow the house rules provided in the cabin. The number of guests and pets must not exceed what has been agreed.
9. Personal data
How we handle your data is described in the privacy policy.
10. Contact and governing law
Questions or cancellation: Morten Ljøstad, ljoestad@gmail.com, +47 90 59 18 20. The agreement is governed by Norwegian law.
