The House

 

Associated with more than 150 years of salmon fishing

Set at the head of the fjord, and within earshot of one of Norway’s most glorious waterfalls, sits this seven bedroom historic rectory dating from the 1820s.

The house has been used as a fishing lodge for the last 150 years. It is said that if the house was not privately owned it would be a museum.

Go back in time

The house is listed by the Norwegian authorities for its historic importance. It has retained, as if time has stood still, all its original characteristics. This building is a reflection of the true vitality and wealth of the great viking trading nation that is Norway.

As the inheritors of such a historic building, the house is very special to us. We are keen to maintain it in this way and it is hoped that our guests will appreciate the uniqueness of the place.

This is one of Norway’s best preserved parsonages and has an eclectic mixture of classic Norwegian features and some period furniture from the time when the house was owned by a British family in the 1870s.
