Overview

Our collection of short breaks in Norway focus on winter escapes in the far north though they can be easily combined with Norway’s fascinating capital, Oslo. Fun activities, stunning scenery and the lure of the seeing the northern lights come together across all our breaks.

Perhaps choose a cool combo taking in the Arctic city of Tromso with the fjord-side resort of Malangen. You’ll have time to indulge in city sophistication as well as immersing yourself in a countryside retreat.

Bucking the winter theme, perhaps a hike and spa break in the heart of Norway’s fjords sounds appealing. Step out in to the fresh air, relax in spa resort and enjoy time exploring the delightful city of Bergen
