Bardøla Fjelltun Apartments, Geilo, Norway

· ski-in on the Havsdalen red run · ski bus stop right outside · 5 minutes' bus ride to the lifts and ski school meeting point · 10 minutes' walk from the lifts to the resort centre

Previously a hotel, the Bardola’s now home to apartments that balance self-catering convenience with a quiet location on the edge of Geilo. And it’s still only a 5-minute bus ride to the lifts, and you can ski almost back to the door on a red run – win-win.

Between the oven, hob, fridge and freezer in your kitchenette, whipping up your own meals here is a doddle – there’s even a dishwasher to take care of the cleaning too. Or if you want to squeeze in some extra sleep and grab breakfast on the way to the bus stop, pop to Sofias for fresh bread, pastries and coffee to go. Then in the evening, book a table there to try seafood, burgers and salads made with tip-top local ingredients.

For some Scandinavian-style downtime, sit back in the sauna and then go for a dip in the indoor pool. The bar’s a good shout too, if you like the sound of ending the night with a drink and chat.

· free access to the heated indoor pool and kids' pool, sauna and fitness room next door at the Bardola Hotel · à la carte Sofias restaurant, bar and café · sun terrace · kids' playroom pool table and table football · boot room · free WiFi · lifts to all floors
