Do you want to spend your vacation in an undisturbed peaceful place, enjoying the archipelago life and rural charm? Now included the annex named "The Hobbit House" which have two big single beds, and a bunk bed for a small child. The space The house "Bryggerhuset" (The Cookhouse) and the barrel-shaped annex "Hobbithuset" (The Hobbit House) are located in an old farmyard with a short walk to its own boat mooring, pier and swimming area located in a bay opposite Skolebukta on Håøya. There are fishing opportunities in the area, and you can see bustling wildlife. The farm is pet-friendly, as there are horses, dogs and cats on the farm. Our Shetland pony Trixie Belle tends to be a hit with the little ones :) Renters are welcome to bring their own pets. This is a real summer paradise perfectly located in Telemark, close to the county border with Vestfold. This means it is a short boat ride to Helgeroa and Langesund. Here you can get the island feeling on land, but with all the amenities. There is a road right up to the door, electricity and water, as well as Wi-Fi and 5G coverage. We have a barbecue, so remember to bring charcoal! :) A little about "Bryggerhuset": The building has a high standard, and is tastefully decorated and renovated.
