Your Off-Grid Sanctuary by the Sea

Nora is not just another cabin; it’s a thoughtfully designed retreat that puts nature at the forefront. Surrounded by untouched landscapes, Nora invites you to slow down, unwind, and reconnect. This Scandinavian-inspired cabin is a celebration of minimalism, blending light wood interiors with soft, earthy tones to create a cosy atmosphere that instantly feels like home.

Eco-Conscious and Off-Grid

Sustainability is woven into the fabric of Sol Hus. Nora runs completely off-grid, using solar power and stored rainwater to minimise its environmental impact. This isn’t just eco-tourism – it’s a mindful commitment to protect the natural beauty of Kangaroo Island. And by staying at Nora, you're also supporting local marine conservation efforts, as 50% of Sol Hus profits directly fund AusOcean’s initiatives, including shellfish reef recovery and a STEM program for local students.

Experience Friluftsliv – The Art of Connecting with Nature

At Sol Hus, we embrace the Scandinavian philosophy of friluftsliv – a love of open-air living. Nora’s design reflects this with large windows offering uninterrupted views of the ocean, letting in abundant natural light. From the cosy interiors, you can enjoy breathtaking 180-degree views or head outside to explore the beach right at your doorstep.

Inside Nora: Thoughtful Design Meets Coastal Comfort

Step inside Nora, and you’ll find everything you need for a restful stay. The cabin features a queen loft bed, plus two slim singles in a bunk, perfect for a family or small group. With a minimalistic yet functional kitchen, you can enjoy preparing simple meals or sipping your morning coffee as you listen to the waves. The fire pit outside is an inviting spot to gather around in the evenings, stargazing and sharing stories as you let the gentle sounds of the ocean lull you into relaxation.
