“The house has its soul and mora than 200 years history! Impressive experience”
We had quite low expectations, but the stay exceeded all of them by far :). We got a bit different rooms from what we’ve seen on the picture, or in our imagination… but they have only 5 special rooms, and all of them have their own story and design. The house is more than 200 years old, it has a long history, and you feel it in the air, in every small detail of the house, all the attention and details of décor. The house has impressive yard (if you are lucky with the weather), you can swim in the sea. The bathrooms and a toilet are shared among all the tenants, but we had no queues or overlapping with our other tenants staying the same night. It was one of the most unique hotels we stayed at, it has a soul! Lovely stay and experience for our family of four.

Admittedly we had the entire house to ourselves, but it was lovely, older(norwegian)style with plenty of facilities. Very cozy & comforting. Breakfast was wonderful, and well worth the extra 200 kroner per person. Hanne (Hostess) & Victoria were receptive, accommodating and helpful. The views lovely and location great. Cannot find anything disappointing to state. A perfect couple of days!

“We had an experience we’ll never forget.”
This property is very old. It’s a wooden house I believe from the 18th century. It’s furnished in a style reminiscent of the early 20th Century. It is extremely quirky. Probably very different from anywhere you’ve ever stayed but go with the flow. It’s weird but in a good way. We had the best nights’ sleep of our whole trip here. It’s family run. They’ve been there for generations and are very friendly. We also ate in their restaurant and enjoyed the traditional food. Order breakfast, you won’t be disappointed.

“Best place on our trip from Oslo to Nordkapp by bicycle!”
Owner of the camp was so nice and he helped me with information about ferry and some locations around Kilboghamn. Nice place, amazing people. I will come back soon, definitely!
