Riverfront Farmstay
Description
Welcome to our idyllic farm on the banks of Norway's longest river. Just 55 minutes from Oslo and 35 minutes from Gardermoen, we are located in the heart of Skarnes with immediate access to forests and outdoor activities. The area is renowned for its deep forests and tranquil waters. The Glomma river offers excellent fishing opportunities right by our property, and with a canoe, you can silently glide up the riverbank to Storsjøen, a paradise for bird watching. The space The farm's history dates back to the 1860s when it housed a bakery and a store serving as a stopover for the river ferry, which transported passengers from Skarnes to Storsjøen. Over the years, the house has been a home to many families. Today, it's where Eva and Johan live, along with our two cats. We engage in organic gardening and are passionate about nature and culture. With our multicultural backgrounds, we have created a unique home that reflects both the location's history and our personal touches from Colombia and South Africa. The house also includes a yoga shala where guests are welcome to join yoga classes offered several days a week throughout midsummer. Private sessions are also available.
