Company info

After years away working and travelling in many countries, I am now back home with mountains and ocean all around. To me, inviting guests from all different countries to my little place, is a bit like travelling myself. Now the world is coming here and it is a joy. I'll be your host when you come and I'm happy to share my place, small stories, my grandma's cooking traditions and my local knowledge with you.

Property info

In 2008 I moved back home and made my dream come through when opening my grandparents harbour houses for guests. Here history is present in every room and both outdoor and indoor my aim is to take care of my heritage the best way I can think of by making it a pleasant and memorable place to stay for guests.

Neighborhood info

Here you live in our authentic old harbour house at the pier. Surrounded by great nature and exciting wildlife. The view itself is another reason to come here. Our wooden rowing boats are free to use and some really great mountain hikes are just a short walk away. The village Steine/Vinje is just up the road and has a grocery store, galleries, museum, cinema, bar and a few shops.
