“What a lovely place to stay in Flåm! Yes, it’s a guesthouse where you have your own bedroom, and shared bathrooms. But it is also like a family home with shared living space and kitchen. The rooms are decorated beautifully, the grounds so well...”

Company info

Svingen, the house was bought by Sander a Norwegian with a dream and a big idea to make a hostel in Flåm. He recruited Joe, an Englishman with the experience to operate such an idea. Joe then roped in his retired parents and now its a real family operation. A Norwegian house with english hosts in the fjords of Norway! Cathy and Wayne the indentured parents are at the helm to welcome all guests to Svingen.
