The property
Welcome to NordAstra
There are chalets where you can spend the night.
And there are places that are remembered long after returning.
NordAstra is one of them.
As soon as you walk through the door, your eyes are immediately drawn to the huge glass facade that rises over several floors. The forest becomes the decor of your living room, natural light invades every room and the impressive ceiling height creates a real “wow” effect.
Designed as a destination in itself, NordAstra combines Scandinavian design, noble materials and the comfort of a high-end chalet, in a completely private environment.
Whether you're coming for a romantic weekend, a getaway with friends, or a family vacation, everything has been designed to slow down, unwind and enjoy the moment to the fullest.
The cottage:
A spectacular living space
The ground floor hosts a large open space where living room, kitchen and dining room meet in a warm atmosphere.
The suspended fireplace, a real centrepiece of the chalet, invites you to extend the evenings in a unique atmosphere.
The high-end, fully equipped kitchen is dominated by a huge central island perfect for cooking, sharing a drink or simply enjoying the moment.
A first bedroom with queen bed and an elegant bathroom with shower and bath complete this floor.
Second floor:
Two bright rooms with queen beds offer comfort and privacy.
A second full bathroom is also available.
The signature suite:
The third level is without a doubt the most spectacular place in NordAstra.
A magnificent king bed integrated into the architecture of the chalet faces the iconic triangular window, offering a unique awakening with the forest as the only landscape.
A private lounge completes this mezzanine, ideal for reading, having a coffee or simply contemplating nature.
It's our visitors' favorite spot... and the one everyone photographs.
Outside:
The show goes on outside.
Start the day with coffee at sunrise.
Set off to explore the trails and the surrounding landscapes.
On the way back, relax in the private spa, which is open all year round.
Then let the evening end around the fire or under a sky full of stars.
Here, peace and quiet is a luxury.
